where i've been!
July, 2022 - The Maine Whoopie Pie Festival was a great success, with people excited to get out and enjoy an event! I met so many very cool, excellent people. This is one that I definitely plan to do next year.

Moosehead Lake Artisans Village, Greenville, ME
For two days I was able to set up in a cute little cabin and meet people "up" in Greenville. The Artisan's Village is re-starting after several years of closure and is in a new location with new opportunities. Each Friday they are hosting a farmer's market, and local artisans will be showcasing work both Friday and all day Saturday. I met many locals as well as travelers and the location was absolutely beautiful!

Bangor Sidewalk Art Festival, Bangor, ME
July 9, 2022: The return of the Bangor Sidewalk Arts Festival was fantastic, and it was nice to show art in my own hometown. I met so many groovy people, including other artists, local business owners, and town officials. I also got LOTS of recommendations for places that I should "map".
A real cartographer stopped by and we agreed that my art is not true cartography (which is ok with me), but he liked it a lot anyway. He had an impressive background and it was cool to hear about his many years of work.
