Solo Show @ Alice & Daisy
Kate and Gleason, owners of the Alice & Daisy shop at 54 1/2 Broad Street, invited me to hang a solo show for the First Friday Art Walk in their vintage clothing and antiques shop in downtown Charleston, SC. The event took place last Friday, November 4th, 2011. Here are a few pictures that I took before the evening began.
A Successful Night
Thanks to all who came to my open studio event. We had a great turnout, in fact it was pretty crowded, and Chuck and Andrew put on a great performance. Thank you guys! I also had help from a couple of my other friends, Sarah and Katherine. Thanks to Sarah for helping me hang the show and for hand-making the title tags for my work, and thanks to Katherine for helping me make the food selections and setting up the food and wine. I really had a wonderful time, and it was great to get so much positive feedback on the new work, especially as I prepare to send out graduate school applications. I also sold some t-shirts, prints, drawings, and a wood panel, and now have the opportunity to hang my panels in a gallery in Bluffton while Brian and I are sailing to Central America. 
I really couldn’t be happier. I will be posting high quality pictures of the panels in my gallery over the course of the next couple days. My friend Ben Williams of Ben Williams Photography was nice enough to photograph them before the show. For now, here are a few photos that Brian took during the show.
If you bought something at the show, I will be calling each of you to set up a time to pick it up over the course of the next few days. Thanks again for all of the support!
Announcing…
My Open Studio! Friday Nov. 6th from 6:30 – 9:30 pm at Sparks Gallery (12 Hagood Street, Charleston, SC). This is a free event with live music by Chuck Taylor and Andrew Hanson of Mad Cat in the Coffee House (check out a few of Chuck’s songs on his facebook page, my favorite is White Picket Prison). There will be wine and snacks, and possibly some of Daniel McSweeney’s ceramic sculptures on exhibit as well. If you are in the area please stop by, tell or bring your friends, and enjoy; it will be an informal affair with prices ranging from as low as $15 to $500. I will be selling paintings, drawings, screen-prints, and t-shirts (including the wood panels I have been working on, which have not been posted yet). All sales will help fund my sailing trip to Central America in December and hopefully art school next year. Exciting.
So now you know why I have been absent from the blog. Here are some projects I have been working on for the show and a sneak peek of one of my wood panels in progress.
