chicago’s wells street art festival this weekend
Sorry I’ve been a little absent lately. I have been working like crazy.
This Saturday and Sunday I’ll be selling my artwork at the Wells Street Art Festival here in Chicago. The last few weeks have been pretty hectic but I thrive on the pressure. We are trying to do a million things at once. Marc has been planning the set up of the booth and its going to look better than ever this year and I’ve been painting non stop. I’ll be bringing 40+ original pieces of art to the fest this weekend. On Tuesday I picked up a large batch of prints from the printmaker and they look amazing! I’ll have three different sizes available and frames will be optional too.
The Wells Street Art Festival is on Wells Street between North Avenue and Division. The fest starts at 10 am and closes at dusk. I’m booth 301 (closer to Division) so stop by and say hello! I’ll also be posting photos over here if you want to see more/follow along. It’s going to be a great fair with over 250 artists – check out more details here!
Later this summer I’ll be participating in the Bucktown Arts Festival on August 24th and 25th and the Lakeview East Festival of the Arts on September 14th and 15th so please mark your calendars and stay tuned.

On Wednesday night the girls of The Prospective Series hosted their first pop up art show and sale featuring works by talented artists Nicole White, Christine Atkinson, Kayl Parker, Patrick Sanchez and Cody Tumblin. The Prospective Series was founded by young artists Caitlyn Hofer and Lucy Baird to help facilitate the relationship between emerging artists and young collectors looking for new and exciting art.
The event was hosted at Untitled in Chicago and small editions of selected artworks ranging from $50 to $300 were available for purchase. I loved seeing all the beautiful work. The collection included watercolors, photography, line drawings and mixed media art. There’s tons more to see in their catalog.
I’m looking forward to their next event and if you’re in Chicago I hope to see you there! Mark your calendars I hear Series 2 will take place in May. To find out more, sign up for their newsletter.
