Eagan Art Festival 2011 Hand Sculptured Dolls - Wayne Moran Photography

These are hand sculptured, hand painted dolls From Joan Rydberg. These were just
amazing to me. It was like they were alive. They were so full of life and
energy. Great sculpture work Joan, These dolls stole my heart.

It turned out to be a rainy day when the weather forecasters said it was going to
be nice. But the action and fun was hot. Everyone was in great spirits, and the
competition for the art contest was red hot.

The entertainers were great. Starting off with the Teddy Bear Band, the kids were
hopping and dancing and having tons of fun. Then came Paula Lammers and her
cool jazz styling’s. She really was terrific with her great band made me feel
like I was in New York or someplace really happening. Then we heard from Greg
Herriges and his world influenced sounds. He was like a mix of Middle Eastern
music and classical western guitar. It has been a very long time since I have
heard a guitar player as accomplished as great. Truly great job Arts Festival
staff on pulling that great talent together.

The food was a wonderful mix that would make any pallet, even to most finicky eater
happy.

You have one more day to come out so don’t miss all the activities tomorrow Sunday
6/26/2011. See you then.

About waynem

As a Minnesota based photographer and artist I have been greatly influenced by the Upper Midwest. I focus my skills and energies on portraits, landscapes, cityscapes, architectural and fine art work. My best work comes from images first painted in my mind. I mull over a prospective image for weeks or months, seeing it from different angles and perspectives, then finally deciding what to capture. The result is images that deeply touch people's emotions and powerfully evoke memories and dreams. My images are used commercially by companies and organizations ranging from Financial Services firms, mom and pop Ice Cream shops and The Basilica of St Mary to communicate their shared vision and values. Book and magazine publishers have featured my images on their covers. My photographs also grace and enhance the decor of many fine homes.

    These events are photographic fun for people watching while capturing images. I’m tired of the rain, I got caught in the rain at the Stone Arch Festival.

      It was a great event. I know what you mean about the rain. It makes everything lush and green but enough already!!! 🙂

      Gosh I wanted to go to the Stone Arch Festival but just did not get out for it. My huge loss. I love that part of town.

      Thanks for your comments. I will have to check out your work. Be well.
