yet another reason to love colorado (this blog should seriously be on the colorado promotions page huh?) - the sidewalk chalk art festival. um, hello - how could i not go? the paintings were awesome. you've all gotten that email of all the 3d sidewalk art chalk guy and stuff, yeah - imagine that live and in person right on our very own larimer street. it was dreamy. of course, it was about a bamillion degrees outside (i'm pretty sure that means one million times one billion) but the artists probably weren't too hot. i mean sure, they were pretty much lying on the bajillion (one billion times one...jillion...) degree pavement for two days straight, but they sat on little carpet squares, which i'm thinking probably counter-acted the heat. carpet squares are said to have that kind of healing power i hear.
there was a little kid section where the kiddies could practice their own sidewalk chalking. we of course had to get in on this action to see if carpet squares really are heat reducers (they aren't by the way) our artwork was hands down better than any of the little kids' stuff. blew them out of the water.
it was maybe funny that my boss was there with his family and saw me on my carpet square in the kiddie section...i asked him if he was glad he hired me since my work was better than any of the kids' there...he didn't answer me
another plus about the chalk art festival was the naked children. i'm so glad we're raising the next generation to be even less reserved than we are. thank you sidewalk chalk art for helping us evolve.
