Then later that night, I have donated a piece of artwork, Spittin’ Tobacco, to a benefit show for a fellow artist with a sick daughter…

Spittin’ Tobacco is an illustration of one of my favorite creatures, the grasshopper! I used to play with them daily during my younger childhood years in North Carolina. I loved it when they spit the tobacco up on my hands,  like a wad of chew, from all of the tobacco leaves they are constantly munching on! I thought it was soooo cool. I know, I am such a weirdo 🙂

*100% of sales from all artwork will go towards Lola’s medical bills! 

Please read her story here http://www.gofundme.com/PLEASE-HELP-LOLA and donate if you can.

 

And going on at the same time that night in the other room at The Bricks, Kickstart My Art & Skatepark of Tampa present…

I am personally pretty excited about this show!!! I like skate decks as a canvas. I own one myself. This is called Little D by Disalutioned Design. It’s hanging in my TV room over an antique bookcase. I love the contrast of old and new, vintage and urban. I get compliments on it all the time, from the young and old, modern and conservative. It appeals to everyone.

I love it because it reminds ME of the 80s! 🙂

I can’t wait to see some more art decks at this show!

 

 

And then finally, the very next day, Sunday, November 24th from 11am to 5pm, I will have a booth at Craftyfest hosted by ARTpool Gallery at 2030 Central Avenue in St. Petersburg. What a jam packed weekend! (Please note: I will NOT be there on Saturday, the first day of the market, because I will be at the Tampa Bay Etsy Crew Holiday Market that I mentioned above. So come there on Saturday, here on Sunday!)

craftyfestCome out Saturday November 23rd, 11am-5pm & Sunday November 24th, 11am-5pm, for a fun, outdoor shopping experience and support local artisans! Art, crafts, vintage, jewelry, antiques, and more. Free to the public to attend. All ages welcome! Shop local, shop indie, shop ARTpool!

And that’s IT! Maybe. If I have anything leftover, I am thinking about having an open studio sale at my home the first or second week of December. Maybe.

Oh, and pet portraits (see details on the image below) are still on sale up until next Friday, November 15th! I have room to do a couple more. Get your picture and your payment to me by that date, and your loved one will have their pet portrait by Christmas…if they live in the continental US. 🙂 Email me if you want to order one so I can set up a custom listing for you in my Etsy Shop that includes the discount. FYI, the link in the photo below takes you to the full priced listing.
