Shawville Fair tipi project

on tipi, Shawville Fair 2012

Here I am painting a horse on a tipi. It was my first ever public art project – intimidating as anything, because people were crowded about, watching every brush stroke! Good practice… particularly when it rained…

This was a joint ARAS and Pontiac Artists’ Association (PAA)  project at the 2012 Shawville Fair. Several PAA artists painted panels on the tipi, including Dawn Abercrombie, Jennifer Dale Judd, Kate Aley, and Tina Michaud.
