Garden Party Prep

Time to prep for the show.  See what I've got framed up, frame up new or sold pieces.  Pick some smaller pieces for (hopefully) easy sales.

Awaiting clear bags for xmas cards.  Nail down the pricing scheme for sets and singles.  Some display system.  Even a small box on a table.  Print up graphic card for inside bag with contents, contact info., etc.

Control sheets, labels for panels.  Business cards.

Taking stock.  I have 24 pieces ~ large and small ~ framed up.  Need to frame up 3 that sold at last Loscon and one new one:

• Snowflakes Are Dancing! (xmas)
• Tay and the Night Visitor  (xmas)
• Straight On 'til Morning  (steampunk airship)
• Looking Out My Back Door (early bird)

Test scan of the 3 xmas cards to go in the back of the clear bag.

Garden Party Art Show 8-]

On hiatus for a bit.  Have to set the xmas card aside and get ready for the our Third Annual Garden Party Art Show and Reception.  8-]

I have several prints to mount and frame for the show yet, which is par for the course.  I'm nothing if now a procrastinator!  ;- j

Hope to see some familiar faces there.  8-]

Garden Party Art Show Postcard

Second Annual Garden Party Art Show!

Awaiting the postcards from VistaPrint.  Anyone who wants one sent to them, give me your snail mail address and I'll add you to my mailing list:  ellen.shipley@schuylerhouse.com.  8-]

Now back to actually making art or I'll have nothing to show.  ;- j

Garden Party Art Show

Light, Paint, Ink & Clay.  Our second Garden Party Art Show.  We had such a good time with the first one we've decided to do it again - and add a potter to the mix.  It's scheduled for Sun., Oct. 1.  Hopefully we'll have as nice a day as last year's show.

I've been working on the postcard.  This is what I've got so far:

Tony's photography, Tina's watercolor and oil paintings, Jim & Pat's pottery and my woodcut prints and tapestry pieces.  Should be a fun show.

TPC Summer Art Festival reception this evening, 4:30pm to 7:00pm.  Come by for conversation and cookies.  ;-]

Prototype Display Panel

Less than a month until my three person studio show.  Lots to do to get ready. 

Bill and I worked on the second prototype display panel for my up-coming studio show.  The first one (pvc pipe and pegboard) was way too heavy.  This one is pvc pipe and wire fencing.  As you can see it works great.

The zippy ties have yet to be trimmed in this picture.  We plan to make 3 more and hook them all together in a zig-zag pattern which should be self-supporting.

I like the clean lines (and of course Bill likes the black and white motif).  ;- ]
