I’ve been sitting on a big post about PB for about two weeks. Today isn’t going to be the day I post it either. I can’t express how confusing and frustrating it is to know a thing in your heart, but to still be hoping against hope that something good will come before you reach any sad conclusions. Take that for what it almost is.

In other less significant news, I need to invite to invite you all to come see me and a few of my smaller paintings, live and in person, at the Baltimore House on King William, between Hughson and John, on April 8th, starting at 5PM. This is all part of Megan Rae’s Obscured Oddities and Curiosities Art Exhibition, with a handful of other local unestablished artists will be showing. I’ll be the quiet, chubby one in the corner trying not to get hammered and make an ass of himself.



I also believe Dawn (Iwanowski, my wife) and I are going to have a joint show of our art at the Central branch of the Hamilton Public Library in October. More details to follow soon.



(Which reminds me, I really need to get the promo artwork in today)

I’m open to other curators who want to show our work. Dawn and I are both talking to friends about showing our work at a really nice house here in town, but that’s still tentative. And I hope to have other events to advertise soonish. I don’t know for sure if this is the year that things take off for us, but I do believe the change starts now, however long it will take to transform our career from inspired amateurism to whatever it is professional artists enjoy.

One thing we definitely want to do is start a studio with a photography room, a giclée printer setup and some other facilities, as well as a splatter box area for me to work up larger pieces in. We’re thinking of rolling it all together into a business plan to also do community-based newspaper printing at a discount rate (if not ‘free’, based on whatever deal most of the other community papers have been tapping into; I know our StinZine is in really rough shape, based on the costs of printing and the small staff we’ve been getting by on lately).

Time to do some serious research.

Also time to do some other work. Still have writing and music plans for this year, as well. Thank you for reading. Have a great day.

Lee.
