This was my first art show! I got in there very fast. All it took was stopping in late one night and talking to the right person. It helped that I was wearing a hoodie with The Diddler print on it. That was a coincidence and I'm glad I had it on to show Ben (the right person) what my art looks like. He signed me up and they called me to hang this stuff a week later.
April is my birthday month and things always go well for me around this time. It's the spring energy. I also tend to get very creative during this season, but not in everything. I haven't been doing many drawings lately, mostly music and that's going very well.For this show I hung 18 pieces that were a mix of framed and poster mounted prints. Most of these were the stoner rock series, skeletons with guitars. I also put a couple of others like the PBR can, Walt & Becky, and Lost Coast#1. I sold some, but more people flaked so I stopped calling people back. I figure if they really want it they'll get ahold of me. I prefer to do commissioned work.
I took these photos on the day they called me to take it all down, which was May 1st. I took it directly over to the next place I had arranged, The Coffee Break in Sunny Brae. That's my favorite coffee shop in town (the only one I ever go to), and the owner Carlos was easy to work with. More on that later.
