Congratulations to Deborah Hill
for
"Abandoned Beach"
A slow, sweltering, sultry Sunday in Marion Square. Late afternoon brought a breeze just in time for some of the artists to have a pizza party. And yes, that is Little Gail, eating her veggies on a pizza so to growl all the better..
HIGH DRAMA DAY: We were all in a somewhat state of shock when we arrived at the show to open our booths this morning. Several artists had original artwork stolen. One was even stolen in broad daylight. And while the scumbag thieves got away yesterday with original artwork, they are definitely not smart scumbag thieves.
I guess the thief who stole the painting on Calhoun Street in broad daylight did not notice the 24/7 SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS across the street. And with the new facial recognition technology - you just might want to go ahead and leave the country now.
And to the joker who actually went into a tent and removed a painting from inside the frame, it was so thoughtful of you to leave the the frame behind WITH ALL YOUR FINGERPRINTS ON IT. You might want to leave the country, too.
BECAUSE...
Crime does not pay in Charleston - just ask Stede Bonnet and 29 other pirates in 1718 who were hunted down like dogs on the high seas, captured by Colonel William Rhett and hanged at White Point Gardens, with their bodies buried under the low water mark in Charleston Harbor, i.e. they "swam with the fishes". And guess what? Charleston just didn't have a problem with pirates after that...
