The Austin City Art Festival 2009 sponsored by the Austin Museum of Art.  The festival took place downtown at the 1st Street bridge beside the beautiful Colorado River, and included fine art, live music, and even a wonderful array of food vendors, too.   From  the gigantic kinetic wind-driven colorful animals of Fredrick Prescott to the delicate handblown glass of Joe Nielander, it was a feast for the eyes and the soul!  Local artist extraordinaire, Jay Long, was also on hand to showcase his beautiful owl and cat art…If you haven’t seen his work, you have to check him out!  And best of all, if you can’t spring the $12,000 for an original, you can do like Cool Houses Austin and take home one of his signed lithographs for a tiny fraction of the cost of the original!  And of course, there was live music because this is the Live Music Capital of the World, but hey, our art shows are pretty phenomenal as well!  Check out the slide show and the artists as well…And who knows, you may just end up with one of those life-size sculptures by Fredrick Prescott in your front yard!   Click on the link below to see the show!
