Artfest, an art retreat of creative minded souls happened last week in Port Townsend, WA, U.S. It always proves to me how innately creative we are and how much creativity nourishes us regardless of experience or ability. On the last night, "Show and Tell" many attendees put out the pieces they had made in and after class. Enjoy!

I'm not sure how the photo got blurred in just one corner, but I love how it makes the pig look like he is taking off!

There were so many wonderful pieces of art. Not all my photos turned out due to the low light. Thanks to everyone for sharing their work. Isn't it so inspiring what we can do given three days and some art supplies?
If you want to learn more here is the link to the Artfest 2012 website. I don't know how long it will be up as this is the last year of Artfest.

Happy Artful Day!
