We went to the opening of "Beyond the Book" at the Honan-Allston branch of the Boston Public Library today. The opening was from 12-2 and I would have posted about it in advance, but I somehow missed the information about it until the day before.
Here I am with a grumpy-looking Stella in front of two of my three pieces on display. Stella is checking out the chips on the snack table.
The show was really lovely. Lots of great work, including an awesome book that is a beehive made from cut paper. The wall where my work is hanging is painted dark purple and I like the way it makes the colors in the collages and on the birds really stand out.
I think it was really exciting for Roxanne to see mommy’s work on the wall of a gallery. She did, however, get a bit goofy.
On Monday I will be shipping the first Nest of Thread off to a show at Pocket Utopia in Brooklyn that opens December 2. The show will focus on Etsy, the diversity and talents of its sellers. Sounds like a fun one!
she looks perfectly normal to me when attending an Art opening.. maybe it is just where I live? I love the colour of the wall behind you too! it really makes your work POP. Keep it up.
Glad the opening went so well. And I’m happy to hear your work will be represented in NYC!
