In a green box in the upper right corner it will read: BUY TICKETS, and a window will pop open. At the top of the box it will have a scroll down box that says, “Pick the artist you are supporting!”…scroll down and choose my name. Fill in the rest of the information and click “register”, then it will take you to paypal to pay for the ticket. You can pay by credit card through paypal so you don’t even need a paypal account. It starts at 8pm and goes until 11pm Saturday, August 18, 2012.
From what I know so far and from the artists I’ve already met, there will be a great mix of performance and art – a magic show, fashion show, leather masks, ladies and dragons, landscape and portrait photography, and my flowery girly drawings – among so much more! – All housed in the Trinity nightclub in Pioneer Square – 111 Yesler Way – if you haven’t been, go just to see the three separate areas they have (hence -”Trinity” – took me a moment), and the beautiful Chinese-inspired bar.
I hope to see you there!!

Burlesque sweethearts

Wow! That was a busy week. Here’s what I’ve been tinkering around on. There will be new art at the Rendezvous/Jewelbox Theatre starting July 5th – and I’m ankle-deep in glitter and fake jewels creating it! July is Burlesque month for the place, so some sparkly ladies are in the works!sweet photo taken by Andreas with his fish-eye camera-phone lens (so jealous)!A good excuse to gather some fancy papers!!Sketches and brainstorming: oh, the possibilities! I’m still coming off of the high that was last night’s “Behind the Blue Door Burlesque” – a Dr. Who inspired show – whaaaat?Five different girls are in the beginning stages, with more painting and bling to come. This has been a really good excuse to have fun, experiment and basically, cover the house in glitter. Now… back to work!!!

 

 

GAME OVER art show at Giant Robot!

Here’s my contribution to the Game Over video game-themed art show taking place at Giant Robot’s GR2 next month, from June 2 - June 27 (2063 Sawtelle Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90035).

Though I’ve played through a few games in my day, this time I chose not to go the fan-art route (though that would have been fun, also!), but to try and illustrate the cozy feeling of being in PJs - snacks, drinks, weapons and power-ups at the ready, getting lost in a tangle of cords though OF COURSE we have newfangled wireless gadgets now.

Summer and flowers at MACE MEAD WORKS!

The “Fireflies and Cigarettes” show is up and ready at Mace Mead Works in Dayton, WA. Thank you so much, Rachel and Taylor!! If I do say so myself, it looks fantastic, and I’m looking forward to being back there June 1st for opening night, 7-10pm.

250 East Main Street, Dayton, WA 99328

If you can make it, do come! Great wine and great people!

Oh my goodness. If you are in the Dayton area, DO stop into Mace Mead Works if you’re into drinking fantastic wine. Their mead and reds are made in small batches, feature beautifully designed labels, and are super yummy. I’m kicking myself for not taking photos of their newly released syrah (the ghost) and carménère – both dead tasty and pinned with hand-pulled printed labels. Soon!!
