may art hop

i just booked my next show. i had talked with the people during my last art hop show, but finally confirmed all the details

art hop reception
thursday, may 1, 2008.
5-8 pm

california arts academy
severance building - tower district
1401 n. wishon, at floradora

i also went over to view the space. it'll be interesting to show there, and i was able to plan some of the lighting for the event. it'll be a smaller show, probably 8 pieces.

as i thought about the upcoming show, it reminds me that in some ways i need to really think of my art as a business. well, at least to consider the business aspect of it. think of taxes; can i write off the money spent on flyers for shows? i know i can write off some of my materials purchased. i guess i need to keep better records for all of these things, as well as make sure i'm booking things (officially) further out. because, now i'm up against a show that's a little over a week away. flyers to be done asap. and that definitely means the show won't feature anything completely new, as i haven't finished the three i'm really working on right now. well, maybe one will get done. who knows.

fortunately, the set up should be relatively easy, as it's located right across the street from my place. seriously, i could hit this place with a rock from my driveway.

through the clouds - april art hop flier

rogue flyer

today i did my flyers for the rogue show. i'll be handing out a lot of these, hopefully, this weekend @ my show @ the philharmonic.

Fresno Philharmonic Show

so, i know i've mentioned it before, but it is almost upon us. i am showing my art @ the fresno philharmonic show on january 26 & 27. the phil has been working with local artists to showcase their art, as well as stimulate the connection between the visual and performing arts. so, i will be showing at least 15 of my pieces in the lobby of the saroyan theater.

(shoot, i need to get cracking on my promo materials for the upcoming rogue festival. i'm planning on using this as a big part of my rogue promo, as well as plugging my own work. the phil recommends bringing 1500 flyers to each performance!)

anyone want to come and hear the symphony?

Christmas Sale - (other new posts below)

i know we're only 14 days away from Xmas, and most of you out there probably have already picked up something for your loved ones, but why not pick up something else? or, why not pick up a little gift for yourself.

how about some art?

i'm offering a great deal now, everything is 20-25% off*. that's crazy blowout prices!


sale ends january 15.


*does not include these paintings: fading away, sunrise, or weltanschauung. but, these paintings will be sold for 15% off! still a good deal.

art update

here's a brief update of what i am/have been working on

these first three were quicker, small pieces done just change things up. they're all 10"x11" framed and will sell rather cheaply

plateau



sunlight over a field



light through covered glass



these next two are ones in different stages of a progress. the first has a bit to go, i think, but the second may be almost finished (depending on how it looks as it dries)

walking together (2'x4', oil on wood)

upcoming show

good news! scheduled a show for...january 26-27. i will be displaying work @ a fresno philharmonic concert. they have artists showing. not sure all the details yet, they're sending me out a packet. but it'll be great exposure to a whole new crowd in fresno.
