Drawing Group

At USM there's a figure drawing group that meets Wednesday nights, I try to get there once every few weeks. Lately I've been playing around with positive/negative reversals; drawing in the light space instead of shadows - this was a particularly successful piece.

February Show

Next planned showing will be at Stones 'n Stuff, for the month of February, 2010. It's a show with a dark Valentines Day theme, another group show. Something to liven up the darkest winter month.

Plant, Pot

A little something I did over the weekend. I had forgotten just how much I love colored pencil.

The pot itself is from a very good friend who does wonderful things with clay, Cat Dubosky, who also lives and works here in Portland.

Well-Hung

So, the hanging of the show went well. Working with other artists can get tricky sometimes; even the most laid-back artist has an ego, and different ideas about how something should look. But after getting over the initial feeling of being overwhelmed by trying to fit everything into a relatively small space, it wound up being a fairly painless experience. Looks good, even.

Even with the unfortunate rendering of gillette stadium smack in the middle of things.

It's HeeEeeEEre......

The show at Shay's is currently up and will be there until the end of October. It looks great, thanks again to the very cool people at Shay's, and of course to Joe for inviting me into the show.

I do have prints for the Horsemen pieces, if anyone is interested, shoot me an e-mail, liz@freefallon.com.

October lurks.....

So October is nigh, and the show at Shay's will be here... it's funny how the best ideas for a project always come in the last few moments before it's due. And by "funny" I mean "frustrating." Anyway, I've been working like a crazy person to get things done to my satisfaction. It'll be a relief to have it done, so I can have my life back.

Ah, who am I kidding here? The second this one is done I'll be jumping right into another project and totally immersed once more. That is my life.
