Sketch of the DFL Building at the MN State Fair
Lots of fair-goers visited the DFL building while I sketched... especially when Tarryl Clark and Al Franken were there.

5. Hmmm. Sketchy is what I'd call...
... Michele Bachmann's political future.

Killer work as always Avidor!

7. Aww...dang. I missed Al.
I so wanted to walk up to him and thank him for being even more of a senator than I thought he was going to be.

11. Nope...
Did some crop art long ago in the Hort-Bee Bldg.

The crop art is excellent this year:

13. I always stop by the crop art display
In past years I've posted pictures of some of the political ones. I haven't been over there year this year but in another thread I did post a copy of a picture of seed art going after the birthers.
