The Opening

2007-10-13T18:32:00.001-05:00

So the opening was last night...went really well. Had a surprisingly large turn out. Didn't get as many pictures as I'd hoped but I imagine I will be getting more from other people soon. The opening went from 7 - 10 and those 3 hours flew by. The whole night was just a big blur for me. Getting pulled in all directions talking to one person then finding yourself in a conversation with somebody else...it was a really weird and crazy situation. Lots of fun though. I can't wait to see this video that Matt is putting together. Maybe I'll be able to post it on here as well.

The Set-up

Here's some shots of the set-up process. It was a good night. Hang art. Drink beer. Then head downstairs to the studio and do a mural on the wall of my space. I'll post a few pics of that over at the other blog. We were down there until 7am. Good times were definitely had.The tar paper turned out to look better than expected.

Brody in motion.

My buddy Matt is a Media Production student so he is filming this stuff for a project he has. Film a piece on somebody in the community or something...I guess most people go for one of those inspirational things about somebody that has overcome adversity or some other such fluff...Instead you get a bunch of drunk artists hanging a show about comic books.

This is what happens when they see the picture coming.

The sneak attack picture works much better.

See what I mean?

A meeting of the minds.

Brody, Cory, and me after everything was up.

I think we finished getting everything up at about 1am. So there are about 6 more hours of art and beer that took place from this point. I have surprisingly few pictures though. I'll have to see if anybody else took any.

The Comic

Couple shots of the actual comic book that I got printed up at ComiXpress. Which is available here, he said, humbly pimping himself.

So these are some of the progress shots I've taken as I have been working on this show over the last couple of terms.First painting I worked on for the show...started around January '07...I think.

I really liked working on these wood panels.

Adding some text

Some smaller wood panels

One of 2 large prints

I'll Probably have a few more to throw on here before I start setting up the show.
