"ART IS..." GROUP EXHIBIT, FORT LAUDERDALE

Had the pleasure of being a part of a very talented group show at 1310 Gallery near Downtown Ft. Lauderdale.  From a previous Exhibit, I was invited to display my colorful Aquatic Series.  What began with just a few pieces, ended up taking up 1/2 of the entire Gallery Floor.  Great turnout, wonderful responses and Sales and Future Prospects even made the night even sweeter!  Had a few local talent join us and was stoked with the continued support of my community.

"WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS" CURATED BY WYN 317 AND THE TALENTED REGISTERED ARTIST

Great way for Local Artists to collaborate with each other.  I wish there were more of these circulating.  Registered Artist is known for his elaborate Stencil Street Art themes.  I designed a reclaimed wood piece and hand-painted my Koi, in which I provided him with my aspect, he then added his stencil version of lotus.  Throughout the Event, we both kept on being approached with the same comment "this is by far the best piece in the show, we just love it...the colors, the rustic wood, the intricate lotus!"  That's always an added bonus.....

"A SWING THING" CURATED BY MARCUS BLAKE & TSL, WYNWOOD

I really loved the concept of this charity/Live painting Event.  The talented Marcus Blake had the concept of having Local Talent design and Live Paint these pre-cut wood swing seats.  Each Artist was given creative freedom to do whatever inspired them.  Each swing was being installed in inner-city neighborhoods as a symbol of Unity and beautifying/uniting a less desirable area.  Who doesn't love a chill time on a swing?
