The 2010 Clarksville Fine Arts Festival was a blast!
Lots of food, great music, and pretty good weather made for a fun day. Lots of high-caliber artists with quality wares made for a “target-rich” environment for the discerning collecter.
I sold some books, made some friends, and generally mucked about having a good time.
Krashdragon came all the way out from Cleburne to pick up a book! THANKS for coming out! It was great to meet ya!
I expect to see the rest of ya’ll for next years festival!

The 2010 Clarksville Fine Arts Festival
Feb 25th
Make your plans now!
This year the 2010 Clarksville Fine Arts Festival will be Saturday, May 22, 2010, from 9:AM to 4:PM on the historic square in Clarksville, Texas.
This year’s festival is shaping up to be a great one. There will even be glass blowing demonstrations!
I’ll be there signing books and will also have original art and some prints.
Art. Music. Food. Fun. What else could you need? Come on by and see me!

One of the treasures (?) of east Texas. Thanks to my friend Mike for the picture (I think…yep, I did ask for it!)
Y’all familiar with Pilgrim’s Pride Chicken? Big producers in east Texas and west Arkansas and Louisana. Lots of chicken farms…between these guys and Tyson there aren’t many independents left…but that’s another story. Pilgrim’s Pride runs very odd commercials featuring Bo Pilgrim…the owner or such…in a Pilgrim’s hat and touting his chicken over his competetors “Fat yellow chicken”.
He’s also known for unusual and perhaps illegal influence peddling, and outright bribery of state legislators. Apparently, he takes himself quite seriously.
So, Bo, my man…are you hopelessly conceited or what? I mean really, where does one go to get a massive 30-foot fiberglass likeness of yourself made anyway?
I’m ashamed to admit this monstrosity is outside a processing plant here in the great state of Texas on 271 near Pittsburg…
I mean…really…what in the world are they thinking?
Corporate icon or overbearing nutcase. You decide.

Y’all don’t forget…

Come out and see me at the Clarksville Fine Arts Festival this Saturday. I’ll have books, about 25 watercolors, and close to 60 pencil works. Even a few prints as well!
There’s food, music, and art!
It’s going to be a gorgeous day for a ride!

I love this concept.
Thanks to Jim Murtagh for the pics!
Hmmm….
Plasma Cutter———check
Welder—————-check
Cut off saw———–check
Steel, muscle, blood—check
I’m thinkin’ I’ve just gotta build something like that. Now, if I can just figure out where I need a massive gate…

The cat will rue the day they made this thing!
(and don’t worry about the cat…Casper, the 22-pound Maine Coon can give as good as he gets and loves to play)
