PUYALLUP
SHOW SUCCESS
Rie Munoz, featured artist at the 2003 Puyallup Fair had a fun and successful
exhibition. Attendance at the Fair topped 1.2 million people over 17
days with 120,000 people visiting the art pavilion where the Munoz exhibition
was held. Sales of Rie's paintings and the "Northern Lights Legend"
tapestry broke all records for an artist at the Puyallup Fair. Half
of the original watercolors sold in the first hour. At the end of the
show only nine of the 39 available watercolor paintings remained. You
can refer to our web site to see which paintings sold and for how much.
There were extensive memorabilia displays showing Rie's paintings
in progress,  field
and composite sketches. Paints, brushes and the Munoz pottery collection
Rie painted for her son's wedding to Cathy Engstrom were shown. King
Island photos, carvings and the 1951 National Geographic article of
Rie Munoz's experiences on the remote Bering Sea island were displayed
along with other treasures.
The entire Munoz family attended, along with Mercedes' friend Shawna
from Juneau. The kids enjoyed all the fair festivities which included
winning oodles of stuffed animals. Rie Munoz and family visited with
many good friends, collectors, and gallery owners who attended the
four-day Rie Munoz artist appearance. She signed, chatted and met
with over 1,200 people during the Fair. Rie is in Tenakee Springs
and is settling in for a winter with more masterpieces to come.
