The Waterfront Art Festival at Kershaw Park, right on the north shore of Canandaigua Lake, will be held tomorrow (Saturday) and Sunday. The festival has been around for many years, although the current show organizer has only been at the helm for a few of those years.
The show is usually a good one - more arts than crafts. One can find original paintings in oils, acrylics and watercolors, along with giclees and mass-produced prints. Jane Stoddard from the Buffalo area is one of our favorites. Great watercolors - very realistic and charming. If she's there this year, she usually has a flag flying from her booth and is easy to spot.
Another of our favorites is Liz Brown from East Rochester. We carry a nice selection of Liz's jewelry at JOOLZ. Liz was going to stop by the shop today on her way to set up for the show but her husband and a friend came by instead. Seems Liz is suffering through an intestinal bug and may not even make it to the show tomorrow. Ryan is ready to step in, if needed.
Liz works with wonderful organic stones (turquoise, amazonite, jaspers, etc.) and unique sterling silver findings and beads. Her pieces work for women of any age and her color choices seem to flatter every complexion. Ryan brought along some wonderful new pieces that are now part of the JOOLZ inventory. I hope to be able to tell Liz tomorrow how much I like them.
