Pasadena Chalk Festival 2018


2018 was a banner year for the Pasadena Chalk Festival!  The cool weather made for the perfect atmosphere, and the overcast sky was ideal for photography.  There was as much area covered at the mall and neighboring conference center as last year, and the quality of the artists' work was astoundingly detailed.  

I took my little pup Caitie with me, and enjoyed the live music on the center plaza, watching the crowd from comfortable benches along the sidelines, as I took advantage of the opportunity to desensitize Caitie to loud noises and so many people. 




This is one blog post where the photography really does speak for itself, so I'll just let you take it all in.  But know that I'll be going again next year!  Hopefully with my dad.

It's so hard to choose a favorite, but this is definitely one of them.







I have a soft spot for elephants - one of my personal totem animals - so I couldn't resist getting a shot of Caitie with this chalk painting.



Wall-E!

This one captured me - another of my favorites of the day.









Of course my favorite of all!



Such fun with Ursula from "The Little Mermaid"
