The Lucky Fiona Street Team hit the mad streets of Naperville to show off their painting skills (no not spray painting Lucky Fiona graffiti) but painting pottery this morning at Pottery Bayou. The Head Bitch had a tough time telling Fiona this was a non-dog Lucky Fiona event, and she must stay home, but she understood as her poor Dogmom has been house bound post-knee surgery. So desperate for human interaction is the Head Bitch she would have met up with the team in a garbage dumpster if asked.
Alas, Pottery Bayou was no dumpster! Instead the Street Team was treated to a glorious fall morning painting dog and cat food bowls out on the deck of Pottery Bayou overlooking the Naperville Riverwalk. We were treated to live string music directly across the river from us as Naperville's Art Festival was in full swing. It was easy to be inspired to create our own works of art as the music floated behind us.
Props to Joe and Brad for being secure enough in their own manhood to paint with us. Also a shout out to Amanda for teaching us all how to not use a paint stamp. I like to think the life lesson here is that when life gives you a shifted fish stamp on your cat food bowl - just laugh and pretend it's a thunder cloud.
Sorry to the team members that missed it this morning due to work and other commitments but we will hit the Bayou again, probably this winter when it's too chilly to bring the dogs outside for a Street Team jaunt. Can't wait to see our finished products once they are glazed and kilned. Thanks again for a terrific morning Lucky Fiona Street Team...you do Fiona proud!
So sad...we couldn't make it. Looks like lots of fun and I heard that the instructor provided comic relief.
