The Thinker by Daniel Franke
David Edwards has his own site at http://www.davidedwardsart.com/, and he has a solo exhibit opening this weekend (Saturday, April 1) at Artspace 303, 303 East 8th Ave., in Homestead, from 7 to 10 p.m. The show is titled "Realism and the One Man Band." His painted pachyderm is pictured above.
If any of the other artists have portfolios online or websites that show off their work, I would be happy to update this post with the links. Feel free to send the info via email.
The Giant Inflatable Art Project was organized and administered by the Sprout Fund.
UPDATE: A spec sheet has been posted that identifies all of the artists.
