Busy lil bee....



A busy two weeks in store for yours truly...There is so much going on & so much to do,i must say I'm humbled as well as grateful to be here in Columbus.I've painted 40 pieces so far this year (a pace of 120) & I will be pushing myself hard preparing for the next two months.I intend on painting 25 pieces by the end of May,twelve of which will be done in the next two weeks for The Gallery hop.May 1st the gang at 83 gallery will be doing there thing & bringing out live silk screening as well as live pottery throwing...I'll be there in full force as will some of the other 83 crew.Join us for cocktails 6-8ish in 11 at Hyde park where they always have team 83's work...I very much enjoy the hop in the short north & the two weeks building up to it are intense.A hummingbird couldn't keep up.I keep tabs on how many hours I work in the studio & those last two weeks (broken record) are 50-55 hour weeks.By the end of it I feel like the Tin man in desperate need of some oil for our joints...Mid May brings us 83 gallery at Bristol bar 5...There will be an 83cent cover & you can enter ($1)for a chance to win an original painting (Bob Dylan 12x12")by your humble artist & shamelessly self promoting author...I love the gang at Bristol & i hope this time round they have my Guinness!Agora 7 takes place May 22nd & while I've never been to this before,I hear great things from people about it & I dig the cats at Junctionview studios.That's all I know about May so far,but,who knows what else Geoff & Mic at 83 gallery will line up for the crew.These are exciting times & I invite you to join ride...
