I Madonnari Festival


Today is the last Saturday of summer, and it was totally gorgeous outside!
We went to Mission Plaza to take in all the beautiful street paintings at the
I Madonnari Festival.


I Madonnari is street painting done in chalk. We were very impressed!!


This lady did a painting of her husband and herself. They had just celebrated their anniversary and he had given her 2 dozen red roses.


This painting was huge.


And the girls face was absolutely beautiful!!


The even had a section where kids could purchase a box of chalk and have their own little square for a painting.



These were very impressive also.

And the kids were very happy with their work.


Most of them did much better than I ever could do!! Anyway it was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.
