Yup, that was my booth at the Muskoka Arts & Crafts Summer Show {read about it here}. So much fun and I really hope I can do it again someday!
So you can imagine how excited I was to learn that we would be in Muskoka on the weekend of this year's show...
It was fun to see some familiar faces and some new artists this time too. I find these events so inspiring and they make me want to get busy creating!
So what did I buy? Well, it was difficult not to go crazy but I decided to limit myself to a new painting {I've been trying to build up a bit of an art collection of original works and these art shows are an excellent place to do so. This cheerful original is by Marlene Bulas...
But as luck would have it, this wasn't the only outdoor art show we visited! We happened to be in Oakville, Ontario for their annual Art in the Park show as well. Much smaller in scale but so many beautiful works of art...
And you guessed it ~ I bought a painting! This one is by Robin Mitchell...
I'm so thrilled with my 2 new acquisitions {doesn't that sound fancy?}
Have you been to any fun summer events this year?

LOVE both pieces!! So fresh and sweet...perfect. Hope you're well...Em is moving out/in tomorrow (York). Our car is packed to the roof! I will be snapping some photos of her big adventure! xo
...and I just looked up the first artist and found that she went to York...and Georgian (I went there). Beautiful stuff!
Perfect compliment to your Gallery wall...or wherever you are placing them. Such wonderful pieces...love the styles & clour! Can't wait to see them in their new home!
Love your picks....what a fun outing while visiting home....haven't been to an art fest here back in Utah there is a big one Park City Arts Fest....loved going! Have a wonderful week!
LOVE the 2 pieces of art that you bought! Small festivals like that are a great way to score some food art.
I love little outdoor art festivals like that! The yellow house painting is just perfect!!
