No box show

We have returned home from Ann Arbor! the weather was absolutely horrific. In addition to two tornado warnings and one tornado sighting, there were severe thunderstorms and a lot of rain. In the many years that we have exhibited there, we have never, never had such bad conditions. It is very difficult to purchase art work when you are constantly checking your iphone or blackberry for weather updates. Out of the four days only Wednesday and Saturday were shopable.

Take a look:

and during...

Only with a little help from our friends, the Biglers, did we survive!

Get Ready, Set, Go... to Ann Arbor!

We have been glazing and firing trying to get ready for Ann Arbor.  A2 as they fondly call themselves is an amazing place. They have allowed artists from all over the country to absolutely take over their small city for a week in July for 51 years. What good sports! Of course when it all began it was only one small art show. Now that art show calls itself  Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, the original  because there are so many other shows that have established themselves adjacent to it. As a result you really have a major exhibition of all sorts of artwork including entertainment. I posted some setup photos last year at this time which you can still pull up from the archives. I'll try to do some this year again but here we are getting ready:
