		• The first ever Chattanooga Who Fest was held May 20-21st 2007 at the all new Renaissance Park on the north side of the Tennesse River across from the city's acquarium. • Show promoter David Smotherman and assistant Amanda operates the Winder Bender Gallery at 40 Frazier St, Chattanooga. They now show and sell my artwork in their gallery. *Stop and see them.* *Click on images below to enlarge*

Show visitors were first greeted by Kim Clayton's Mother Pam	Next...they were greeted by the fantastic art car created by Danny "Bucketman" Hoskinson aka (Hoss). Danny's display was overwhelming. His creations are improving day by day. Check out the detail work on this eagle.

	The new Renaissance Park in Chattanooga is about a block long with two giant mounds 4 or 5 stories high in the middle. This is a new park...many locals don't know it...but they know about the park with the two big mounds. If they had named it Dolly Partron Park I'm sure many more people would know about it. All day long the kids would trudge to the top and slide down the hill on flattened cardboard boxes. After watching the kids...a couple of folk artist "kids" Lizz "Gypsy" Hundley (on left) and Reba Campbell (both old enough to know better) couldn't resist.
