SQUIRT, MIX, APPLY, REPEAT.

Well my art show is all good and done. Thanks for coming out for all those who did. It was nice seeing some familiar faces, and new ones. I received some nice comments and autographs on my guestbook, some good press, some street cred., and even an extremely modest amount in sales -just enough to keep me from drowning in discouragement, yet not so much so there's plenty of room for growth :) I put this on here because I know people are curious. Everyone's so hopeful, and I don't blame them. Thus begins my slow rise to fame, although I'm in no rush. Once you're famous, I don't think you can ever really go back.

I'm currently laying low for a bit, hiding from the limelight. I'll be going back to school in September. Nothing's really changed as I've still got lots of painting, general art making, and tons of learning to work on daily. I'm going to try and share more of what I learn and discover on here.

Well anyway, here are some comments I got from my GREAT IDEA FOR A PAINTING AND SUGGESTIONS BOX:

Dark, But Not Anti-Life blurb in The Globe and Mail.

This was recently brought to my attention. My blurb is nestled against the article on General Idea. Not bad! :)
