Matt and the Doggie Art Festival…

This weekend I think I over booked myself but hey, we only live once and I got a lot of art/photography to do! Matt McH. came to me via this great net working site  ModelMayhem.com, may have mentioned that with Pete. It’s like Face Book but for models/photographers/stylists/make up artist. Love it! We met for lunch on Friday. I collected my art Saturday morning from the Great Escape frame/art gallery, the storage unit, and various other places I have my work hanging and then at 2PM set out to do the shoot of Matt. The shoot went well and I think the photos of Matt turned out great. I look forward to working with him again. I’ve posted the shots in my PHOTOGRAPHY section under FASHION so check them out!

THEN on Sunday Tim and I got up at the crack of dawn and work the art show from 8am till about 5 or so. What a lot of people don’t realize, is when your done with the show you have to return all the art to the storage unit, then the gallery and various other places the work hangs. The good thing is this show was a huge success! HUGE! I can’t thank Brian and the whole gang at the Doggy Door in Winter Park for coming up with such a clever art show! I love animals and this show, in particular, was created for the dog/pet lover. The show features “animal inspired” art AND you can bring your dog to it! Something for everyone and the proceeds go to the SPCA of Central Florida.  I LOVE doing this show and I have to say, this was the best show ever! I’m so excited that people were out and enjoying the great weather and spending money, seemed like the old days! Maybe the economy is turning around?!

Anyway, I’d like to thank everyone of my friends and family who came out and showed support and all this pet lovers who supported the arts, mainly mine!

Always,

Lee
