The Art Show in Scottsdale, AZ: "Celebration of Fine Art"

This will mark my 6th year participating with the best art show in the world--"Celebration of Fine Art," located in Scottsdale, AZ.  100 Artists from all over the world will be meeting me there.  It'll take us a week to set up our art studios, and then for the next 3 months, we'll work in our various mediums in front of an audience.  Yes, the public is invited to come and watch us work!  This is truly an unique experience!  Show coordinator, Susan Potje, states it beautifully on the show's website: http://www.celebrateart.com:

"From Point of Rocks, MD to Bend, OR, artists from across the country are packing up their art work and their supplies and making their way to Scottsdale, AZ for the 23rd Annual Celebration of Fine Art.

You will find 100 artists in their working studios January 12 through March 24 every day from 10 am to 6 pm. The dedication of these artists to their craft and to the Celebration of Fine Art is awe inspiring. One visitor to the Celebration had this to say about the experience, “Truly, you chose the word “celebration” wisely and accurately. Here, a person can stand in awe of the amazing power of creativity and evolution. The artists who most intrigued me were the ones who persistently changed, who found new media to reveal and reflect new moments, and who painted or sculpted because art is their breath and life. To meet such people is a rare privilege; not many people truly live their convictions in these days of convenience. Your artists have chosen to travel from many states, to expose themselves to strangers, and to hope for what may be the best of days.” Thank you, John, for your kind words.

Each year we find ourselves being humbled by the immense talent and passion that every artist puts into their works and their willingness to share the intimate details of the inspiration behind each work of art. Amazing discoveries are waiting for you at each and every studio as you stroll the 40,000 square feet of studio space. The artists’ enthusiasm for sharing their visions and for encouraging fellow artists is what makes the Celebration of Fine Art an experience like no other.

We look forward to welcoming you to the 2013 Celebration of Fine Art. We want to hear your story and find out what the Celebration means to you and how your life has been enriched by the art and the artists of the Celebration! We promise that your days spent at the Celebration of Fine Art will be an experience to remember! See you soon!"
