Despite the fact that we have been going to Busch Gardens since it opened it never occurred to me to see the park as a subject for my art.
Then through my daughter I became friends with the family that runs the fair that comes to Hampton every year. TheĀ carnival at night was more like the ones we went to as children-rides on a smaller scale, hot dog stands, popcorn, lots of kiddie rides all on a footprint the size of a parking lot. And me snapping away till I had a file full of reference material.
