Artsfest 2015 was FANTASTIC: gorgeous weather, fascinating people and dogs to watch, delicious food and ice cold drinks, talented performers, plus awesome art of all types and price points. If you missed it this year, you missed out!!
My fave booth was by Barry Reithmeier, the coolest synthesized art (a term I made up because I don't know what else to call it) I've ever seen! He explained that he makes up worlds and structures within those worlds on his computer, then goes in like a photographer and explores and captures images he likes best. If the Big Bang Theory guys were artists, this is the art they would make. I would love to have bought several pieces, but until I win the MegaMillions they are way out of my price range. Couldn't take photos of his art, so here is the website if you're interested in being blown away!

DMan bought me a funky fun piece from the gallery of William Graham of Hardy, Arkansas. He dubbed it my "peace sun." It's an early birthday present for me and I LOVE IT!
If you didn't make it out to Artsfest this year, mark your calendar for the first weekend in May 2016!

| Springfield Little Theater's middle school group rocked the performance stage with Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off." Helen, my friend Lisa's daughter, is the dancer on the far right and she really commanded the stage. What a natural performer! |
