GUYS! BIG DEAL ALERT. (To me anyways.)
I have officially been accepted into my first ART FAIR!
The 39th Annual Bloomington Arts Fair on the Square accepted my Wonderful Wild Souls illustration series into their juried show! Their art fair brings together artists and craftspeople from the local, regional and national level. I am so honored to be a part of this years collection of talented people!
I didn't think I got in at first... I expected to hear results on Monday, April 1st, so I was frantically checking my email every 5 minutes. I got to the end of the day and hadn't heard anything, so I assumed I hadn't gotten in and they just don't notify the people that received no's. :( I was a little down about it, but not much I could do about it.
I barely checked my email the rest of the week because I was swamped at my full time job. I went to clean out the hundred+ emails I had acquired throughout the week and I checked my junk mail and there it was.
My ACCEPTANCE had gone into my JUNK MAIL.
And I was like NO, THIS IS NOT JUNK, HOW DARE YOU, EMAIL.
Thankfully I don't just automatically delete everything in my junk mail even though it usually is just junk.
I am so PSYCHED to bring my Wonderful Wild Souls to the world! I have always loved going to art fairs. I love submerging myself in the diverse art world. There are endless possibilities.
If you're in the area on June 22nd, come say hi and check out my stuff! :)
