When the world around Seems bent on Hell’s Destruction, Find solace in art.
I just love artists; Amazing talent is shared. What’s your medium?
Wood? Here’s a sculpture of an owl
This clever bucket pours imagination
Some artists bring blank canvas to life
Other artists, like Carol Clarkson, bring clay to life
Whimsical artists combine mediums
Margie Reck combines gourds with her painting talent
Others create fabric, make hats, design jewelry
What you choose to wear is an expression of the ARTIST in you!

He created this amazing portrait of fellow Artist, Larry Zabel.

A friend sent me an e-mail with the most amazing photographs of animals. It did not have a photographer’s name credited to the pictures. I wish I knew who was behind the lense for each of these. If you recognize any, let me know, okay?
They are too beautiful to keep to myself and to a few FB followers. Photography such as this is the trademark of true artists!
I need you, my dear WP friends,
to see these. Sit back and enjoy!!
And tell me,
which are your favorites?
Here’s lookin’ atcha!!
Hope you enjoyed this wonderful display. Which was your favorite?
We had 55 artists exhibiting their creativity at this wonderful Ennis Arts Festival today.
Come and see a few of the booths, artists, and special visitors with me.
One of our artists,
Ivette Kjelsrud,
designs creative fine, wearable art.
The center of this bison by Ivette
is melted wax,
a technique called encaustic.
It was fun setting up tents on a beautiful Saturday morning…
One of my favorites:
Scott Wheeler Photography
Scottwheelergallery.comThis photo of Yellowstone’s Artist’s Point
is a sample of Kim Tolotti’s wonderful photography.
Kim died this year – a great loss to us, to art, and the world.
Kim’s Photography was/is gorgeous.
We are establishing a scholarship in her honor
to be awarded to an Ennis High graduating senior
who will focus on art as a major
My 2 mo. old great-granddaughter was the only bored person in the crowd!Bob & our great-Grandson, Xander, enjoyed the rock painting area.We’re a dog friendly park. Isn’t this one a cutie?The Tune Tanglers kept us entertained from 10: to 5: with their great music!Aimee Heimberg shared a booth with Ruth Hauri.I love Sunny Glass Mosaics by Sunny Jaye.
Tiki Contemporary & Western Art by Kathleen Van Diessche is amazing!
When time to take a break, the porta potties are right handy!
Couldn’t help myself… just had to share this corner of the festival with you.These boys were ready for a break, too.Don’t miss Wildfire Photography – Images by Gary Slane – Spectacular!
John’s Rustic Originals made with old kitchen silverware and utinsels were so clever!
There were several wonderful pottery booths
with a myriad of pottery to choose from.
The barbed wire artist was new to us this year. His creations were fascinating.
One booth was for Ennis Arts Association members
who wanted to display one to three items,
but didn’t want to fill a booth space of their own.
The three in the background are the work of Carle McCambridge.
Carla Cavaiani used old spoons to create beautiful art pieces.
I love this bluebird photography by Scott Wheeler (see my reflection in the glass taking this photo with my cell phone?)…Makes an interesting study, doesn’t it?
Come fly on over here next year – second Saturday in August – for another phenomenal festival.
