Eastside Culture Crawl is almost here, yay. Its been a little challenging with moving this month too, but its all coming together. This year for the crawl I will have a couple things happening. ‘Artists in my Studio’ is my exhibition this year, plus I will be showing folks how to hand colour photographs. Try it out yourself one some test prints but if you wish, 4×6 b&w images will be available for purchase which you can then hand colour and take home.
‘Artists in my studio’ I am very excited to present these images. I am surrounded by so many amazing artists who constantly inspire me; Siobhan Humston, Rory MacDonald, Maki Hanawa, Erin Sage Sharp, Dawn Pemberton, Jeff Younger, Jane Wolsak, Dieter Schlatter. I asked to photograph them with the tools/instruments they use to create, but have taken them out of their studio and into mine. The show is about the artists themselves and their act of creating, these people are living their passions. Along with the images will be their answers to a few questions, which at first seem fairly simple. Who are you? What do you do? Why to you do what you do? and lastly due to our governments recent actions – How does your art contribute to culture? I can’t wait to see the answers!
On the culture crawl weekend I have joined with several ladies for a special this Crawl weekend ( I took the following from Siobhan’s blog
Also…CHECK THIS OUT: if you go to each of these amazing studios and get a stamp from each of the amazing artists, you will be entered into a draw for some amazing SWAG! An ASTROSATCHEL purse, one framed drawing of mine, a photo session from WENDY D, a DVD and drawing of MIRA’s…and wait…there’s RACHAEL, too! You may have seen her work at the Container Art Exhibition at the PNE in August…it is stunning! Honestly worth planning your Crawl visits! And I truly look forward to seeing you here at ALLEY PAD STUDIO!
I AGREE!
see you this weekend!
