OF PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICER




I, Eddie
Vakser, certify that:




1. I have
reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Artfest International,
Inc.;




2. Based
on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in
light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading
with respect to the period covered by this report.




3. Based
on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information
included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows of the small business issuer as
of, and for, the periods presented in this report;




4.
I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)(4) and 15d-15(e)(4)) for
the registrant and have:




(a)
designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure
controls and procedures to be designed under my supervision, to ensure that
material information relating to the small business issuer, including its
consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to me by others within those
entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being
prepared;




(b)
designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal
control over financial reporting to be designed under my supervision, to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America;




(c)
evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and
procedures and presented in this report my conclusions about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the
period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and




(d) noted
that there has not been any changes in the registrant's internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's most recent fiscal
quarter (the small business issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an
annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect the registrant's internal control over financial reporting
that are required to be disclosed;




5. I will
disclose in future filings, based on our most recent evaluation of internal
control over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit
committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the
equivalent functions):




(a) all
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of
internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
adversely affect the small business issuer's ability to record, process,
summarize and report financial information; and




(b) any
fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who
have a significant role in the small business issuer' internal control over
financial reporting.
