Good First Day
We are getting ready for day 2 of the Art Show (www.thetelephonefactoryartshow.com). Day 1 was a success. I sold a few pieces and met some great folks. In addition to showing my work, I'm hosting the Fireball Collective (www.fireballcollective.com). The Fireball Collective is a group of great jewelry makers. It has been a lot of fun participating in the show with them. It is really satisfying when participating in a show with so many great artists. The community here at Telephone Factory is fun and inspiring. We had hundreds of folks come by yesterday. I really enjoy sharing my work and getting lots of feedback. It is interesting which pieces people comment on and say is their favorite. Often, people's favorites differ than my own. So it is important to take note of the variety of opinions and see what you might have overlooked. If you are in Atlanta today, please come by. Kate has done a wonderful job catering. We attracted several patrons by the wonderful aromas coming from our apartment. Today will be more so as she makes her signature french toast muffins.

Thanks for your comments at
Thanks for your comments at the Architecture Tourist. Your post here helps me remember the show.
I can't watch sports anymore without instant replay. A show with 30 artists is exhausting for the visitors. So, an instant replay or pre-play on the web would be a great companion for a group art show. Your pictures remind me: I was there in that very room.
I don't just mean a link to the artists website. I'm thinking of images of the very art in the very room it appeared in for the show: Instant art show replays.
