After over two months of careful planning, my tour to promote Pawblo starts tomorrow! My boyfriend and I are flying into Las Vegas tomorrow night. I have a lot of family in Las Vegas, so I'll spending a couple of days with them. We'll be renting a car so that we can do our big drive up the West Coast!
I am actively looking for locations to do "live painting" events. Aside from randomly setting up my easel on California's many dog beaches and dog parks, I am hoping to find pet stores/boutiques or other pet related businesses to host me for a 3-4 hours to work on my paintings inside their stores! So far I have set up an event in Las Vegas and in San Diego. I was hoping to have all of my events set up before I left to give you a full list but I should at least alert you all of my itinerary so you have an idea of where I'll be and when. If you have any suggestions on where I should set up live painting events you can leave them on a comment on this post! Also, if you are familiar of the area and have suggestions for cool places to visit (restaurants, stores, museums etc.) I'd love to hear them as well!
