I guess the city of Carmel threw a fit when the Carmel Art Festival was canceled, so it is back on! You can read more on their web site, but the show was originally canceled due to the economy. I guess the show planners didn’t consider the economy of the town in their original decision! The festival brings in lots of extra income to the hotels, restaurants, and other businesses.
Hope to see you there! Below is one of my entries from last year.

Your paintings are lovely, Donald! I aspire to your level of detail in my own plein air work. Glad I found your site.
