I had the privilege of traveling to downtown Tampa to do some chalk drawing at the annual Gasparilla art Festival at Curtis Hixon Park. March 1st-2nd. It was a beautiful location and was run so well! Myself along with 3 other chalk artists created 8×8′ pieces on cement board by the entrance of the festival all day Saturday and Sunday until 2pm. I had a great time and met some talented and kind artists. Next up I am traveling to Safety Harbor, Florida March 22nd for the Bloom N Chalk Festival! I’m excited!
The city of Lake Worth Florida hosted its 20th annual Street Painting Fest this weekend with the theme being cinema. For my 7th year participating in the festival I wanted to do something in the realm of flight as a theme. I went with the owl from “Legend of he Guardians”, an animated 3D film that came out a few years ago. I’m fairly happy with the final result, especially the wings extending past the edges of the 10×10 foot square. Here are a few pics from the event…
