New York
Well..... I'm just finishing up getting all my stuff ready to fly to New York,for the BAM show, I've never flown before so I'm quite nervous about it, it's stressing me out. On a good note though, we're going to get to have fresh White Castle burgers, good pizza and all the other good foods that come with the big apple. I drew and colored in about 200 or so stickers to put up and hand out while I'm there. Hopefully I can generate more sales by promoting my arse off during this vacation.... we'll see.... stay tuned for more when I get back... to see all the pictures I take while I'm there check my Flickr page... http://flickr.com/photos/mysoule/

Brooklyn Academy of Music Exhibition
I'm really excited to announce I got accepted in this!!! (More information on the show coming soon!) And I will be having some art at the upcoming exhibition "Connected Unconscious" at the Brooklyn Academy of Music http://www.bam.org/BAMartThe theme "Connected Unconscious" is a contemporary expression of the collective unconscious: a web 2.0 social network of artist exchanging ideas, work, process and inspiration. The exhibition is a tangible result of that connection. The work will reflect an aspect of this connected unconscious, exploring themes of connectivity, technology, consciousness and our common humanity. The exhibition will run from April 17th - May 11th. BAM is considered a major cultural institution in New York, founded in 1861 with an average of 60,000 visitors per month to the museum.
Stencil Nation Tidbit
I found a little tidbit on the Stencil Nation Book....
"More street artists are turning to stencil art's speed, efficiency, and neatness as a means of expression. All it takes is a piece of cardboard, an X-Acto knife, and a can of spray paint to pose an idea or tell a story with the potential to change the gait of pedestrians and make them stop and think."-San Francisco Weekly Without a doubt, stencils are the fastest, easiest, and cheapest method for painting an image on a wall, a sidewalk, or practically anywhere. Stencil Nation focuses on the unexpected mix of this lively, accessible medium-from famous artists including Banksy to international street stencils and gallery shows-to reveal engaging aspects of an intentionally secretive creative community. With dynamically illustrated perspectives from the niches of the art form, female artists, documentarians, and the growing online community of the international scene are featured in this fresh collection of photographs and essays curated by StencilArchive.org's founder, Russell Howze. New artists, often utilizing stencil art in unconventional ways, are also featured. Stencil Nation also represents the art of lesser-known urban scenes, including Poland, Romania, and Israel. Additionally, Stencil Nation builds upon previous published works to give the most extensive and up-to-date history of stencil art, as well as how-to tips from the artists themselves. Russell Howze is the curator of StencilArchive.org. He lives in San Francisco. Heres a link to my page on Stencil Archive, I need to uplaod more picture to it when I have some free time.

Painting Like a FIEND!
I've been exhausted lately, I've been painting like a fiend! Busy getting ready for shows and commissions on the side, had the flu for a few days so I got behind on everything...oh well life goes on... I'm pondering opening a Gallery/Boutique here in Seattle with some friends, maybe within the next year or so.I'll keep everyone informed on that.
