Surprise, we got through some heavy stuff and I grew calmer, more relaxed and my work got better. I feel better than I have in a while, as long as the Brewers don't give me a heart attack or crush my soul. Often times I wonder why I even give a shit about sports. Hopefully I grow out of it. Anyways, I feel good and good about my work for the remaining few shows. Sitting in the field for hours is always healing for me.
Our two last art festivals are:
Sept 19-21 Plaza Art Festival, Kansas City MO
Oct 3-5 St James Court Art Festival, Louisville KY
Then Oct 17-18 We will be having an opening at our gallery, Painting Is Dead Gallery on the farm here. In the gallery, the show is titled Fresh Fish. We will be showing fish related work like these drawings I did from my time on the Mississippi River. We our also very excited to have our 13 year old nephew showing his crocheted fish. We have spent some time together in the last year fishing, which has helped us all deal with the grief of losing people we love. Fishing has always helped me get through hard times.
Yes, I did catch all those fish, and drew them from life.
AND we will have our booths set up with new and old work. I am holding a few pieces back for the show which I will tease in a few weeks. I have older pieces I am willing to sell discounted and stuff nobody will have ever seen before. All are welcome to attend. Email me for details.
