Ann Arbor

After a working on my portfolio and a good hard workout this morning. I got out of the house and went to AA2, Kerrytown of course. Got some paper at Hollanders talked with staff about one of my books, which I know now for sure I'll be taking additional classes on the weekends to expand my knowledge of books and the type I make. From there to the farm market craft fair held every weekend. Always an inspiration to see how others do and make their crafts. Candles, books, jewelry, ceramics, fused glass, paintings, batik tie dye. etc... of course all handmade. No Wal-Mart vendors at this show. For those that don't know what a Wal-Mart vendor is, they order their stuff from catalogs by gross lots and put it in shows as original "handmade" art. Buy from local artist especially ones you know! Well, off to have a glass of wine and work/finish up another book. Keep the creative juices flowing and God Bless! :)
