Kathy Czopek's report on her recent attendance at a business conference on "How to Apply" in St. Louis is full of good information. One of the presenters at the meeting was Laura Miller, operations director of the St. Louis Art Fair. I attended that show in September. Here are some booth images to illustrate the information that Laura shared at the workshop:
Painting by Daniela Ovtcharov
Jewelry booth Ronald & Leigh Linton
Who can even see the booth for the crowd? Woodworker, Matthew Hatala on the left
Nice portable booth, easy to ship - jewelry by C. Hoffnagle
Porcelain by Robert Hessler
Amy Arnold, fiber sculpture
Ceramics by Nathan Grubich & Amanda St. Hilaire-Grubich
Glass by Sam Stang
Jewelry by Jonathan Rutledge
This is not the booth shot Robert Longyear would have sent it in, but wanted you to see the add'l tie downs and lights on the very nice panels which set off his work
Jeweler Matthew Naftzger's work is constructed from found elements, as is his booth, distressed metal cases and wall hangings reinforce the recycled element of his work
Two people who contribute a lot to AFI:
Artist David Bjurstrom
& Photographer Mark MacKinnon
Sorry, no photo of John Leben's booth, as it was blown to bits!
Comments
All great booth shots. They also look like fabulous work.
Someday I really need to see David Bjurstrom's work in person. His work looks so cool in photos, I need to see the real thing.
