The Install Begins & Discounting
Look, it’s a wall of women!
This series was shown at Ogle in 2009 — there are more than 50 individual 9×12 paintings, drawings and other mixed-media pieces that make up this series. Every one of them will be 50% off its original price during the open studio. Not before. Not after.
You can see them in more detail here >>
Stacks of Cards
What’s next? Mailing out and distributing this huge stack of cards. Feel free to volunteer if you frequent any establishments with a card rack.
The Postcards Are Here
Well, we’re committed — the postcards are here. We distributed them around First Thursday last night.
What’s an Open Studio?
Well, depending upon the artist and medium, an Open Studio can be many things — from an opportunity to see an artist’s workspace to a chance to see an artist’s back catalog of both previous and most recent works.
Shanon’s Open Studio is a number of things — a party, an open house, an exhibit of both current and past work, a workspace visit and a sale. You’ll see work spanning the past 15 years. You’ll see hundreds of paintings and drawings (not an exaggeration!). You’ll see work that she doesn’t show outside her studio. You’ll enjoy food and beverages. There are three main “gallery” rooms, the studio itself, and the bargains rooms (among other assorted small nooks and crannies).
