Artists, artisans and music filled the Bloomfield Park Saturday for the Third Annual "Paint the Park" Bloomfield Art Festival.

It was a picture-perfect day artists from Greene County and southern Indiana to sell and showcase their arts and crafts. There were more than a dozen vendor booths that included: ceramics, paintings, baskets, jewelry and a variety of other artistic mediums, according to organizer and prize-winning artist Wyatt LeGrand.
