News of the last minute 'surprise' show came from one of my awesome art instructors at Sierra College, Mona Korby, this past week, requesting that "Earthbound" be put into their new digital art gallery!

The new gallery is in Weaver Hall, upstairs and aptly named "The uppercase Gallery". The piece should hang for a number of weeks, if not the whole month. The reception and debut is Tuesday, Sept. 30th from Noon till 2pm and also opens the dedication for the Hunjo Gallery in the Mac Lab honoring Pam Johnson's watercolors.

So I am very honored. And very busy getting stuff ready! Once the Borders show is up, I will be there most weekends, especially for 3rd Saturday Artwalk on the evening of Oct. 18th.

Hope to see ya all there!

OCTOBER: BORDERS Books & Music, Douglas/Rockyridge, Roseville, CA

The uppercase Gallery, Weaver Hall, Sierra College, Rocklin Rd. Rocklin, CA (Reception 12 - 2 pm, 9/30/08)

They were right!

Just finished the final & critique last night ("Trailing the Moon" / SelfPortrait) and it was well recieved and recieved some of the highest marks of any one piece in the class.

The project was harder for me than it looks. Do a self portrait in the style of another artist. We were supposed to choose from someone between 1760 to 1960, but Mrs. Korby wanted me to do Nagel. I thought this was too easy; I'm well aquaintyed with Mr. Nagels work, and I thought someone with more brush strokes or illustrative style (my first choice was Latreuc) would be more challenging. I was wrong.

Having a more conceptual, 'sketchy' artist style, the vector-type clean lines of Nagels work was definitly a challenge for me.

Thank you Mrs Korby for a wonderful introduction to Painter! I will be using it often!

[A total of 3 pieces I did for the class have been uploaded to my gallery...]

At the moment it has examples of old and new stuff, some of which is here, some not. Some fanart, too. But I have a variety of newer portfolio pieces that are not on it yet and I want to have professional scanned.

Other than that, I can't express enough how accomplished I feel!

Please take a look and send me a comment on it. (I have not tested it in all browsers just yet, so please report any weirdness!)

NOTE: if the "Sketchbook" is not up yet, it's cuz I am uploading it slowly.... should be done tomorrow evening...

Anyone have any tips for photographing artwork? Or does everyone run to Kinko's nowadays? Truthfully, I'd rather do it myself, but I have crappy lighting ...

Hard. Hopefully with vacation will accomplish more. Getting involved with online artist cliques is helping. My goal had been to create at least two ORIGIANL illos for the Illustraion Friday site this month. I've submitted 3....but they are previous works Oh well.

Maybe next month... ]]> ~MistyCate
