The Laguna Beach Festival of Arts is over. Although I'm incredibly grateful to have taken part in such a renowned art festival, I'm also glad to be back in the swing of things and experience "normal" again, like studio time, my friends, family dinners, and all the stuff that makes life so great.
The most invaluable aspect of being at the festival was the direct contact with the thousands of people who passed by my exhibit space every day for two months. Finding out what they liked, why they liked it, and how my art spoke to them, has reinvigorated my commitment and reshaped my future plans.
Here's what's happening and what's ahead:
- I'm showing at the Dana Point Ocean Institute with four Laguna Beach Festival artists.
- Coming up in October is another group exhibition at the Mission Trails Regional Park Gallery in San Diego.
- Esterroi.com and Icarusart.net are in the process of being restructured. Both will come with their own blog that will focus on separate areas: mine on my art and life as an artist, the other on the Icarus board and its technique.
Below is an image of a small commission that I just finished.
