WOW!!!!
What an amazing weekend
at the
21st annual
Slotin Folk Fest
Atlanta, GA
THANK YOU!!!
Thank you to all that made it an incredible weekend for us!
Yep, these are my little "jug heads"
They had a blast at the show being inspired by all the art and socializing with wonderful people.
My hubby was along too(apparently camera shy) and was a big help! I couldn't do the shows without him.
I met so many wonderful artist, collectors and fair folk!
I was amazed and honored to be amongst so many talented and fabulous artist
from all over the United States.
I got to meet
Louise Grenell in person at the show. She made the journey with her hubby to take in all the folk art. I have followed her blog and it was great to meet her in person. Check out her talents at

I also got to meet the super talented
Carol Roll www.nostalgicfolkart.blogspot.com
She is a sweetheart and I have admired her whimsical folk art sculptures on Etsy but to see the real thing in person did not disappoint! if you visit her link, you can see lots of great pictures from the show. Another artist with bigger than life amazing mixed media works is
Andy Saczynski. His wife took some great pics at the show. You can check out more about the show highlights and this Florida artist at

I wish I had photos to share, but unfortunately I was so absorbed into it all that I forgot to snap pictures of the rows and rows of fabulous artists.
