Black Bird Scratchboard and Art Shows!




Been working on a 16"X20" Scratchboard. Photos are beginning basic layout and finished product. All I have to do now is put the 1X2 framework on the back and prepare it to hang...hopefully in Wally Workman Gallery. Went to several openings on Saturday. Open Studio of my pal Terrell Powell. Love his work! He doesn't have a website but if you google him you can see examples. Stopped by house/studio of Kelly Newhouse, She's young and up and coming. Really like her style. I picked out a small colored pen drawing for my collection. Kelly is one of my favorite employees at Jerry's Artarama here in Austin. Don't think she has a website yet. Will post it if and when.


Another friend had a solo show at Wally Workman's...Cheryl Finfrock. Her website is http://www.cherylfinfrock.com/ Wild colors and wild subject matter! She makes her dreams come alive on canvas. Great show, great turnout.


Finally I stopped by Progress Coffee http://www.progresscoffee.com/ for the opening of a photography show by Rui Cavender. Great black and white images. And I got to pose for a photo with two guys who were dressed up in 80's porn star disco outfits. (they were going to a theme party later) They were decked out in skimpy colorful bathing suits, brown vests (with no shirts) and big sunglasses. What fun! I'll post that photo later!
