Maryland Heights, MO (PRWEB) August 29, 2012
On August 31, the highly anticipated Fall Art Fair returns to Queeny Park to celebrate its 38th year. With this being one of the longest-running art fairs in the bi-state region, Queeny Park attracts over 130 juried artists from over 20 states. Artists exhibit their talents in fields such as glass, painting, ceramics, digital art, and photography.
Artists will be available to discuss and sometimes demonstrate their process. Randal Spangler, a Kansas City native, creates vivid, whimsical illustrations using colored pencil over a watercolor wash. Says Spangler about his art, “my subject matter...has grown from my childhood memories with my grandparents”. Many artists, such as Knoxville, Tennessee native, Tina Brunetti are self-taught and have made multiple appearances at the Art Fair.
In addition to the chance to view and purchase artwork, visitors will be treated to a wine tasting, a children’s art discovery adventure, and a drawing where attending winners can spend at any exhibiting artist’s booth.
