Park City Art Festival

Today we went to the Park City Art Festival. We have gone all but one year since we started dating 14 years ago. We always go with the intention of buying something, and not to just browse. We just love filling our home with unique pieces of art. Last year Liam was around 8 months old, and we took him with us...but this year, we decided that with my pregnancy restrictions, and his 19 month old grabby hands, that it would be best if he stayed with Grandma and Grandpa for the day. It was a bit of a hot day, and we were there quite a long time, so we were glad we made that decision.

Anyway, we got some really fun and interesting pieces for the house, and a couple for the yard and pergola.

One particular artist, Lisa Telling Kattenbraker, that we have bought from for the last couple of years was there again. Below is a picture of a new one we got from her this year. She makes prints made from batiks that she creates. Her work is just fun and cute and we like them for the kids rooms. Her site is HERE


Below is a new artist that we had not seen before. His name is Lynden St. Victor and we just fell in love with his work. This is the picture we ended up buying of his. He also asked if we'd like him to dedicate the piece to anyone, and we decided to have it dedicated to Liam and Rowan...it was pretty cool, we had never been asked that before. His site is HERE



We got several other prints, and also a couple of new ceramics for the fireplace. We were pretty tired by the time we got home, but we were pretty happy with our finds.
