1. Succulent Saturday - Art Opens!

This was a gallery weekend!
Friday night, a few friends and I went to Roq la Rue for the Travis Louie exhibit (he is so one of my favorite painters).

The gallery was crowded with fans and ardent viewers -

Some of the attendees were nearly as interesting as the paintings themselves. :-)

(Found this amusing - this woman with LOTS of hair photographing the hair painting)

Got to *meet* and chat with Mr. Louie himself! (He is charming and personable).

Here - he is personalizing my book, and I am getting his contact info. Hopefully he can come teach for TLCWorkshops in the future? (I would so *love* that!)

Here is my fabulous personalization!

(Oh, and I picked up a copy of the most recent Hi-Fructose - it has a whole Marco Mazzoni sketchbook insert in it! Oh, the awesome!)

Tonight, I got to see RK Post's exhibit at Krab Jab Studio.

Here is the contemplatively debonair Mr. Post himself.... (sadly, his pug had already gone home).

Krab Jab has other art, from previous shows, also up for sale (my faery piece is there in the lower right corner).

(These patrons approve of this exhibit!)

2. These updated and animated archival photos are made by Kevin...





These updated and animated archival photos are made by Kevin Weir over at Flux Machine. They remind me of Terry Gilliam’s animations for Monty Python, with a bit of the bizarre spookiness of Travis Louie.

3. Monsters. And cupcakes.

Went on another downtown-Seattle gallery fieldtrip today-

This time a car full of us braved the clouds and the crowds (both Bumbershoot (Seattle's Music & Art Festival), and PAX (Penny Arcade Expo) are going full-blown this weekend)-

-to see an exhibit by the wondrous and eccentric Travis Louie-

(who has the best show title ever- "Portrait of an Artist as a Young Monster". Plus gorgeously detailed and realistic graphite and acrylic paintings that resemble gothic Victorian photographs.. You can see the entire show at the gallery website.)

After getting our fill of luscious art, we returned to the equally luscious cupcake bakery of wonderfulness...

Nice day. Nice company. Nice treats.

Back to painting...
