This blog post really is “a few” pictures for a couple of reasons. First, I’m not really a big fan of taking pictures of art work other people have created since I’m just riding on the back of their hard work. Second, I came here on the last day of the fair during the Texans’ season opener and during a massive rain storm and so there wasn’t much to photograph in the way of people and events. This art fair is different than most art crawls I go to in that most of the work is done by world renowned artists and the quality and name recognition of the work is very high. It’s like being in a museum where for the right price, you can point at something and nod your head and they’ll pack it up for you to take home.
While I wasn’t at the VIP party this year (last year, one of my photographs was used by one of the non-profit art groups so I was invited), rain or no rain, I wanted to go there.
I am a drawn to lights and color so this piece by Adela Andea covered both grounds.
I’m also a big fan of Carole Feuerman sculptures which may cost as much of a house, but holy crap they look realistic.
Here is a bear rug with plants growing out of it, or something. It looks a lot cooler in person
