I love living in Sarasota and here’s why: there are always really cool things to do. This weekend’s Chalk Festival is a perfect example. Artists from around the world have gathered to cover South Pineapple Avenue in chalk. My chalk art is limited to hopscotch boards, but these artists are producing works of art. Most pieces are spooky and on theme for Halloween, but this one was particularly Lettuce Share. The festival takes place both Saturday and Sunday. This is the progression from last night to this afternoon.
Notice the grid lines. Other artists had miniature versions guiding them. And some seemed to be simply free-handing it. In addition to the actual art being produced on the street, it’s also considered performance art.
