2012 Sarasota Chalk Festival Kumpa Tawornprom
Safety Harbor resident and internationally renowned artist Kumpa Tawornprom constructed these elephants for the circus-themed 2012 Sarasota Chalk Festival.

Burns Square continues to fill up with spectators for the  2012 Sarasota Chalk Festival.

The Festival happens through Nov. 6 in  Burns Square where international artists will converge side-by-side with kids to chalk up the neighborhood. Drop by anytime, and you'll never know what or who you might see.

One of the biggest draws will be Kurt Wenner, a Baltimore-based 3-D street painting artist known worldwide for his work.  

More murals are on the way, too, as the "Going Vertical"  campaign will take over walls from 18 buildings around the city.

For those looking to chill to the music, Chillounge will turn the streets of Burns Square into a comfortable area to sit on high-end patio furniture while enjoying a night out with friends listening to live music. That takes place on Laurel Street between South Pineapple Avenue and South Orange Avenue from 5 p.m. to midnight on Friday, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

I am trying to find the pictures that were taken by the professional people at some of the chalk art. I paid to have my picture taken walking across the tightrope and lost the sheet of paper they gave me to see my picture. If someone who has uploaded their pictures know what the site is could you email me at glitterbug65@hotmail.com.
