HIP SIPS!!!!

Ok we interrupt this scurrying about to bring you:

HIP SIPS!!!!

Saturday, June 12, (tomorrow) Wilson Wineries is hosting an art, jazz, and wine festival on their property... Entry tickets is $20 and it benefits the Randolph County Cancer Center. So see? It's a good thing! Wilson Wineries is near Modoc, Indiana, which, in turn, is, depending on which way you wish to go, south of Muncie or north of New Castle.

Art and Soul By Phoebe Gallery will have a booth there, with a sampling from my Muncie art buddies, and I'll have a booth as well!

My pal, Booker, is helping me man the booth, and I've been running around the last two days, making sure I've acquired everything I'm going to need tomorrow. I've got my art work strewn around my front room and all the hardware and structure ready to go as well. Here's the catch. I'm shipping the whole thing there, tent and art and all, via my two door, hatchback, Toyota Yaris. Everything has a five foot limit, if its longer than that, it's not fitting. I'm so taking a picture of how this is going down. It'll all fit. I swear. Here's hoping for sales, as then I won't have as much to haul back!

I've got the credit card thing worked out, I hope I actually have cell reception out there. I have a back up plan, but having reception will make it so much easier.

I still have to price the last bit in my portfolio, make a few more signs, and finish one last lil painting that is for sale, but is also the center piece of a magnet display. Besides mucho artwork, I'll have lil things for sale, like some bracelets I made up a while ago, and some beer bottle cap magnets. Figured that would go over pretty well at a wine festival. These aren't just Bud Light caps, either. Personally, I can't stand the taste of beer, but my boyfriend is quite the connoisseur of imported beers. Imported beers have nifty caps.

Oh yeah, and I have to put hangers on the newest art. I have three panels I have to sew covers for, and I'm hanging art from those, and hope to hang a few lighter pieces from the tent itself.

Did I mention scattered showers are predicted? I have tarps like nobody's business! It'll rain out there to be sure, but we'll keep working in the dry tent!

So yeah, come out to Modoc, help some cancer patients and buy some arts! And wine! And we have jazz!

Back to work...
