SCHEXNAYDER -THE OFFICIAL ARTIST FOR FESTIVAL INTERNATIONAL 2008
In early June, I received a call from a representive of the Festival International (Lafayette, LA USA) that I was selected as the official Poster artist for 2008. I am quite honored and look forward to the event in April. I made lots of sketches and paintings before one was selected. The entire process has pushed my work even further. This new work has everything that I have been wanting to do for awhile. The final piece is beautiful and captures the movement of the festival. The festival's website is www.festivalinternational.com The unveiling of the painting, poster and pins is scheduled for January 10, 2008.
