THANK YOU!

Thanks to all who visited the Wood Museum at the Quadrangle and voted for The Mechanical Mouser in the Technical Topper, we received first place for the people's choice award.  We nearly skipped the Culture and Cocktails Night at the museums, it was the same night as my student's art exhibit, so I was a bit tired.  There was a great band, good food, and wonderful people.  The Steampunk Springfield exhibit will be there through September - so if your local there is still time to see all the artistic contraptions.

day two - picnic table

So before I jump right into day two, a word about day one-  My student helper Zoe and I had a great start, as my husband had helped prep the table.  So we jumped right into the painting.  On day two we got another student helper Cole.  The three of us had a good time and worked hard as you can see by the progress:

THANK YOU!

Thanks to all who voted, I will be painting my design down at the museums the first week in August.  I will put up some pictures then, it should be fun.  I can't wait to meet the art student who will be helping me.
