Past shows and what is coming next!

Well, the Comfest benefit went well. Ran into some people I hadn't seen in a while and met some new & interesting people! A couple of weeks after that I took part in the CCAD Spring Art Sale. That was my first time test driving a booth, and it was most definitely a learning experience (note to self, bring some snacks). Since then I've updated my Etsy Store with some of the new prints, and I'm working on more (lots more). I'm not showing any of the paintings I've been doing as I'm saving them for shows later in the year. I don't want to reveal everything all at once... what's the fun in that?


So anyway, I have a coupon code for my store that'll give you 10% off. That code is MAYDAY



So yeah, check it out ;)

Here's what's coming up art-wise:
On Saturday May 7th is PAPERazzi, works on paper. This show is being put on by Creative Arts of Women (CAW)at MadLab Theater in Columbus Ohio. The Facebook event page is here. The show reception runs from 4-7pm and will include visual art and performances by members of CAW. Food and drinks provided by MabLab. Stay after and watch Theatre Roulette!
address is 227 North 3rd Street Columbus, OH 43215-2530

Then, in July I'll be vending at the Starwood Festival XXXI in south east Ohio. I've never been to this festival before, but I've heard a lot about it over the years. A friend I spoke to last night billed it as 'The Burning Man of the East', and it's one of the largest festivals of it's kind. I can't speak from experience, but what I've heard is there are lots of workshops and events to work on personal growth, and lots and lots of partying. At the end of the festival they are known for putting on a bonfire that can get as high as three stories. Should be crazy-good. I'll write more about it when we get closer to the event date. If you're interested ticket sales are on sale now, and go up towards the end of May.

That's all for now! Later folks!

Hoo boy I have been neglectful! Well lots going on, so let's get to it. The Fort Hayes Alumni exhibition is now up! Check the blog for more info about the who's and whats and wheres. I want to personally invite you to the closing reception on December 18, it's going to be quite festive! Also the Columbus International Film and Video festival that I helped jury will be showing films from November 16-20 at CCAD's Canzani Center and the Gateway Theater. Check the website for times. This coming Saturday November 20 · 7:30pm - 11:30pm there will be an animation and mead tasting event at the Canzani Center that'll help wind down the festival nicely. I will be there, and so should you, check the facebook page for event details.

Oh by the way, if you like beer and are interested in reading a blog about how to brew it, check out this new blog by a friend of mine.

For me things are winding down finally and my goal is to focus on making art and little else. I'm also doing a collaboration, but I can't really talk about it. Because it's experimental it's possible it may never see the light of day, and this may be the last time I ever mention it... so just pretend you never saw this... yeah.

So, sometimes I get song-obsessive, and here's my latest.
Song is Carry Me Ohio, by Sun Kil Moon.
Reminds me of something bitter sweet that didn't work out.
