Crosby Art Festival - Sun, Jun 29, 2014

I attended this excellent art festival from about 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. I would have stayed longer, but small storms popped up, and, of course, I left the windows up at home. The storms, however, stayed away from the art festival and missed west Toledo, so I could have stayed.

I bought two paintings. One was a watercolor by Lu Fuller of Kentucky Farm Studio and the other a pastel by Anne Kindl.

Some of the artists that I enjoyed:

• Deb Link - Galena, OH - oil painter. I saw her at the Country Living Fair in Columbus a year or two ago. She produces great landscapes. Some day, I'd like to purchase one of her large originals.
• Gemstone bird carver - this guy produced amazing works
• Shared Lives Studio - great to see this Toledo org present, and they brought some wonderful items.
• Jack Pine - glass pumpkin artist - seen this artist's work at the B'ville Pumpkin Festival the last two years and at last year's Country Living Fair in Columbus. I spoke with the artist for a while. We own a few of his pieces.
• Karl Feng - watercolor
• Aaron S. Bivins - Toledo watercolor - we have one of his prints of the new Mud Hens stadium. I enjoy his work.
