Conni Tögel Takes Award Winning “Sheep Incognito” Exhibit To The Myrtle Beach Convention Center

July 24, 2008 - PRLog -- All over the country, people are buzzing about Sheep Incognito - Contemporary Sheep Art with a funny bone. After tour stops and rave reviews in Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida, professional artist and painter Conni Tögel will take her award winning  sheep art exhibit to Myrtle Beach at the 26th Annual Craftsmen’s Classic™ Arts & Crafts Festival, a winner of Sunshine Artist “200 Best” awards.

Conni Tögel’s unique paintings have been published in several magazines and books, seen on TV and are found in public and private art collections in over twenty countries around the globe.

When you talk with Conni Tögel about her sheep on canvas, she describes them as “cunning allegories packed in woolly wrappings – juxtaposed between reality and fantasy, in a world full of silliness and wry observations”. For her, the sheep are “messengers of insanity and camouflaged comments on social and political happenings”. “Sheep Incognito” is her response to the world’s changes around us.

In her Myrtle Beach exhibit, Conni Tögel will show over one hundred different originals and limited edition giclee art prints that will make everybody – even in this economic downturn – enjoy art and smile again. Look out for  “High Strung”, “Passing Gas”, “Out of Place”, “Black Sheep of the Family”, “Bipolar”, “Bull-Sit”, “Right on Track”, “In-Depth Conversation”, “United We Stand” and many more...

The juried annual art & craft event in the Myrtle Beach Convention center features more than 250 professional artists from around the country. Visitors can see the creative process in action as many exhibitors demonstrate throughout the weekend.

Don’t miss out on the wildest sheep that everyone is talking about - and you just might discover their hidden agenda before they move on towards other pastures.

The exhibit can be found at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center and will open on Friday, August 1 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. , Saturday, August 2 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, August 3 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission for the Craftsmen’s Classic™ Arts & Crafts Festival ($7/Adult, $1/Child 6-12, Under 6 Free ) is good for all three days with free return pass.
