Caffe Tazza Art Show- 7/21/11

Ok, so I promise I will stop making and breaking promises to keep up on my blogging, because clearly, that is not happening.

I am so busy with the gallery, my work, moving (again!), haggling with my insurance company over my icky car wreck, and just life in general, that its nearly impossible to keep up with my blog.

BUT, last Thursday night I had yet another art show at Caffe Tazza, and it was a HUGE success! It stayed busy pretty much the whole night, tons of friends and new faces as well made the show, and I sold several pieces! ALWAYS a good thing! Here are some snapshots of the evening (all I've got are cell phone pics at the moment, but I will upload some digital camera pics soon):

"Vanity": originally marked NFS, something told me to put a price on it, and it ended up going to the perfect home.

Happy gallery-goers.

Beautiful Caffe Tazza, a tuscan style bistro, where the show took place.

Busy busy busy!

Just when I thought I had finally caught up on my little blog, I once again fell behind.

I recently exchanged my two unfulfilling, part-time jobs for one very fulfilling and exciting full-time job as a Gallery Curator for a downtown art gallery. I now spend my days behind a desk in a beautifully architectured building, surrounded by art, artists, and artisans. I organize events, write newsletters to inform our local art community on local happenings and not-so-local art trends, oh, AND I get paid for it. The other day I spent three hours posing for pictures and riding a city bus around town with my boyfriend. While being paid.

Needless to say, I am extremely excited about this opportunity, and after a very busy first two weeks on the job, I am finally able to update the public on the goings-on in my life. I will also be uploading a brief picture montage of the recent events at the gallery, but first, a fantastic Transformers inspired political poster, appropriately titled "Optumism":

I know some of you have seen it before, but with the new Transformers movie recently out, I thought it apropos. Love.

Updates soon on the gallery, a birthday trip to Austin, and tattoos!
