2022 MCAD Art Sale

This past weekend was the bigger-every-year MCAD Art Sale. I stopped by Friday night and took a quick look around before I became too overwhelmed. Here are a few pics:

More of the photo hallway - I have a piece in the upper right and the one two spots to the left of that one.

In the hallway to the studios.


A tiny section of the furniture area upstairs.


A lot of temporary walls set up in the lounge area on the 2nd floor.




More 2nd floor art.

Heading toward the illustation section above the main gallery.


Over by the boutique (but I never made it all the way back to the boutique on the far right).


One final trip down the photo hallway.

I ended up selling a handful of pieces, so I'm happy to be bringing back home less than I dropped off!

My Boys Printing in the Darkroom

I recently made this reel for Instagram of my boys making a print in the Concordia darkroom:

Maybe sweeter than that is this next video. This is an unedited 90 sec video of my 11-year-old teaching my 8-year-old how to make a print. I didn't have to say a word... my oldest was able to get through the entire process and teach his younger brother:

These videos were from last month when I was "testing" out the lab for the first time to make sure everything was working OK. I knew my boys could find this interesting, so I brought them along. They ended up loving it.

Upcoming MCAD Art Sale

I dropped off a handful of pieces at MCAD this past weekend for their Art Sale NEXT weekend:

Walking in from the back lot.


My pieces lined up ready to be labeled.


Labeling.


The back area by the auditorium was set up for labeling work.


I was early (completely not shocking if you know me), so there's
my work off toward the right on otherwise empty shelves.

Come check it out next weekend if you're in town!
