Dakota County Fair 2010...Day 2

Today is day two of my 13th year at the Dakota County Fair! My mom has been painting 10:00-4:00 while I paint 4:00-10:00. Then she will be here all day Thursday, and I will be here all day Friday through Sunday!

So far it has been a slow start, however, in my many years here we always end up doing about the same each year in the end.

Here are a few photos that my mom took of kids she's painted, and a couple that I did on my own arm! New designs this year include Yo Gabba Gabba, Max and Ruby, Dora, Diego and "the map," more Thomas characters, and Kai Lan! Can you tell I'm inspired by my two year old? ;-)

Well, better get running...rain is coming down again and people are piling into the building! Hopefully my little VW beetle will make it through the deep mud ruts in the parking lot tonight...!
