Students, Alumni, and potential students were all allowed to participate. You go to sign up, they assign you a square and give you a box of Prang chalk, and you go to town! I wasn't really planning on doing a square, and I was definitely overwhelmed by the thousands of people crammed in the park, walking up and down the sidewalk, watching people work. I felt shy, but a friend convinced me I should do one, so I went and signed up. I had no game plan, so I drew a cupcake, for no real reason at all.
I had a lot of fun, even though my square was the sunniest square in the damn park and I got a little dehydrated (this was mostly due to poor planning.) I'll definitely do it again next year, with an actual game plan. And people seemed to like what I did!
Here are some other fine works of art from the festival (most finer than mine):
Me, my cupcake, and my good friend Hattie:
LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura! I think those chalk days at WAYA definitely helped with my skillz.
