BALLOONS AND MORE BALLOONS........

How many balloons can a person paint?

Well, many if you are doing a exhibition all about balloons.

It started like this......... In October I went to the 2013 Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  It was awesome. The colors were incredible and the shapes were unique, and excitement was in the air, along with a lot of balloons.

I took tons of pictures... no I mean it..... tons....... What do you do with tons of pictures?  Well paint them of course.

FLASH FORWARD..... I was asked to be in a show in January at A SMALL ART GALLERY in Prescott.
  Tony: "Can you come up with about 10 paintings?"
   Me:  "Sure".
What was on my mind........BALLOONS.
    Me:  "I will do a perspective on the Balloon Fiesta."
    Tony:  "Sounds Great!!"

So here I am painting balloons and more balloons.  Only six more paintings to goooooo.
