We did it! Jess Ventura and I made chalk drawings/paintings on the sidewalk in downtown Keene, NH for our town's Art Walk artist demonstration day. We weren't the only artists there, there were a lot of demonstrators, but we were the only ones kneeling on the sidewalk and getting filthy. Yes filthy. Not only downtown regulars got to see the work but many of the schools in town had field trips to come see the artists and artwork and they really enjoyed the chalk drawings.
This was the first time either of us had done this and I haven't even used pastels besides once in high school, so we were both a bit worried about how it would go. We learned some tricks though so if you ever want to do one and need some tips email me!
Check out that image above all this babble - up there - a caterpillar somehow appeared and was crawling through my drawing in progress. I was really surprised at how much he smeared as he went through!
