Saturday came and went. It was a beautiful day, but smaller crowds than in past years. There were five artists invited to the Saturday Paint-Out, representing the mediums of watercolor, acrylic, collage, colored pencil, and pastels.

All of my images created for this were 3 1/2" x 5" or 4" x 6" . . . pretty small space to create an image. I sold one of my paintings. . . . the cherries titled "Ate Nine" . . . to the colored pencil artist! Our impression was that the economy has had a big impact on art sales.

Here are the three paintings I did at the fair on Saturday. Considering the interruptions, the noise, and that I had less than 4 hours of sleep the night before, I am pleased with them.
