So I just got word the bamboo grove is closing down. I guess the business world isn't kind. It takes more than being a bad ass salon with great art gallery to make money and stay in business.
Here is the peice that was created by an Artist I only know as John. (wierd how the artists in the show were John Greater, Jon McKee, this other John.... and then me.) This guy's peices were flying off the rack, everyone loved his work.
Here are some pics from the show at the beginning of the month.
I painted a character on one panel. I started when it was nearly dark, and while I LOVE the face, I'm not too crazy about the letters here.
Straight Vegetable Oil, what an idea. This guys comes up to us saying his Cruiser runs on Vegetable Oil and he gets all these dirty looks from the Portland Granola types about driving a guzzler. He wanted it to tell the world his rig runs on the vegetable oil...I'm not sure this was the best idea. However, let me and Jon McKee drink our fill of the Blue Ribbon then ask us to paint a car and we will NOT turn it down!!
