The Gladstone

The June showing at The Gladstone (39th and SE Gladstone) has been hung. Great Coffee shop with... everything you could want -Coffee Beer Wine. Bam. They also have snacks and comfy seating who wouldn't want to hang out and just kick it at a place like that.
















This show took a little more prep work than some of the others I have done. However, I can tell that I am getting better organized and have more realistic expectations of what to expect. The Gladstone had freshly painted walls and I got clear hanging wire and I think this months exhibit turned out real clean. Besides the slightly frustrating plan B I had to go after discovering a mistake in my hanging design for the big "Strawberry Maniac" painting. As you can see
the big painting is hung off the loose center line the other paintings sort of adhere to... drives me crazy.





Also picked up some paintings that I hadn't seen for a while. They have been hanging out downtown at Kelly's. The lady Heidi that put the show together is a really cool local artist that has given me some sound advice. I have never seen her art, but hope to catch a show soon. Off hand I mentioned the Graffiti show at Bamboo Grove salon and she has both heard of the spot and knew of the show. Sounds like the show could have a good turnout and I've got a great couple peices prepared and I think I'm going to get to do a live peice. Drinks will be served (yer pay'n!) for those that show, June 21.... actually their website still has the old date June 6th, I have been told it was changed to june 21st.
