Support your local artists and bellydancer!

Be sure to head down to Tony's wonderful greek grill and support our local bellydance group on Wednesday evenings. Great food AND great entertainment.

If you are in town for the Farmer's market, be sure to invstigate the new ART market near the Heritage House. It is local behind O'toogle's and Dr. Sullivan's dentristry. Check it out!

Another Day at the Farmer's Market

Today, Bill Croft and I held a shift at the market. It grew to be very hot! Lots of people but not much in the way of sales. I guess we lack Sebastien's gift of the gab.

FArmer's Market with Jessica

Jessica is the administrative assistant at Pynelogs. She has a stall to promote Pynelogs every other week at the Farmer's market and I was her featured artist this week. She is a fun person to hang out with. The painting to her left with the pink construction paper swimsuit was actually a nude. I was nervous that someone would be offended by her so I covered her up. As the morning progressed we began stripping her down(much to a couple of small boys delight). Within about 15 minutes of disrobing her..she sold!
Painting is a dangerous business. I mishandled a can of black gesso last night and managed to get if all over me and half of the back porch. Good thing I was outside!

First time at the Invermere Farmer's Market

It was fun. I shared a booth with Sebastien Bell and Bill Croft (hereafter referred to as the evil twins). I had a few sales (enought to cover my booth fee) and some good exposure. It was a busy day. Unfortunately, I spent a fair whack of money on two kinds of superb honey from the honey man and a baguette and loaf from the bread man (he has a little brick oven in a tow along trailer) I won't be getting wealthy at this rate! I wore my "hug an American" button to commemorate the 4th of July and was hugged by a few people.


The evil twins. We packed up at 1 pm just as a small deluge of rain hit and some very close thunder and lightning!! I ducked! We discovered that if you have a choice in picking a tent, red is much more flattering to paintings than blue.
Sebastien fighting boredom...or something. He is a wonderful salesman, extrovert and schmoozer!
