End of Summer Update and Design Challenge Voting

Hello Beautiful Friends!

As Summer comes to a close, I hope you had a chance to do all the Summer things.

It's always a bitter-sweet time of year - days start to get shorter, Art Walks end for the season, and time spent with family wanes, as the kids go back to school.

I look forward to the cooler Fall weather, but here in Southern California, our second Summer is just getting started! We get our beach back from all the visitors and the weather is as hot as ever.

I am thankful to all of you who came out to the many Oceanside Art Walks this Summer. It was a great time of fine art, music, crafts, and fun. I was able to showcase many of my new SCIARPA! Scarf designs and met so many new local artists. 

For those who missed the Summer Art Walks, there are still a few events coming up!

Stay tuned for more information on the Oceanside Art Festival in October and the Holiday Bazaar at the Seabird Resort in December!

Until then, keep supporting small local businesses and independent artists.

If you would like to support designers right now, you can head over to Spoonflower and cast your VOTE for your favorites in the latest design challenge: Jewel Toned Boho. Here is a peek at my entry:

I went lush garden with this one! Let me know what you think in the comments.

Have an enjoyable week and keep creating!
