Our first show was a huge success! The amount of people looking and talking about our art was beyond my expectation. All of you are very talented! I feel fortunate to be associated with such an amazing, skilled group of artists! A huge thank you to everyone for helping set-up this event and helping promote it. I firmly believe that if we are persistant like Mr. Busby told us to be, that we will be recognized in the art community, as well ...

With the Gateway Market thing coming up, I'm looking at early September, instead of late August. I'll pass along location details as soon as I have them. As for the show itself, Shawn had suggested setting up to do body art, to add an "interactive" element. I love the idea, and would like to expand on it by adding other "interactives" -such as technique demonstrations, ...

Its great to see that we have a show set up for August. Brad you can count me in. I have changed the look of this forum. I also am going to try to get it apart of the Art-A-Holics site as well so we don't need to have two places to go too. I will let everyone know when I get that working. Sorry about the shows topic I fixed that problem.

He really wants to meet with a couple of us to discuss the concept of an art show in conjunction with their business. I've never been there, but he said space is limited. It seems like it would be a good venue, but those of you from Des Moines might know better than I. I know their webite said they serve wine, so a possible wine tasting by them is an option. ...

I'm not sure who out of this group has a profile on there, but I find it's a better networking tool than Myspace... Anyone who wants to join should be able to search for the group, or friend me (Thor Aschim) and I can point you in the right direction. I already sent out about 500 invitations to the group, so we'll be growing quickly. By the way... I pulled a few pieces of artwork from your available sites to post as photos but if anyone wants ...
