5.7.08 Artwalk Recap...




My first artwalk went awesomely great! First off, I sold a painting. "Spaceman Red" was a canvas I was going to gesso over and do something new. Instead, I touched it up a little earlier this afternoon and brought it to the gallery. Thanks to Doug for picking it up tonight.

I also met some really cool artists as well. I met writer extraordinaire Madeleine Peck. She writes for various publications around town and has the really cool 'Art is'nt Rocket Science' blog. I finally met local artist Squiddust. He is a really cool guy and we plan to do some great things down the road. I ran into Chris Nail, a former professor of mine at FCCJ. Old classmates and co-workers also showed up. Weird...

So far being part of the Art Center has been a rewarding experience. All the artists were really supportive of my art and when I sold a piece. Thanks to Brian Gray for bringing beer and hanging out all night. We have some really cool ideas in the works. More to come...
