Out of the Blue

The Taylor Artist's Guild hold's a show every month at 120Art Studio in Taylor, TX.  I had been meaning for months to submit a piece to one of their shows.  I finally got around to submitting Collision to their June show, "Out of the Blue".  I was surprised and super excited when my piece was accepted.  I had never been to a show held by TAG, so I wasn't sure what to expect.

I did have to build a frame for my painting.  This was a new thing for me.  I am skilled in carpentry, but I have never built a floating frame before.  I was impressed with how it turned out and how it changed the feel of the painting.

I went to the opening which happens on the Third Thursday of the month.  I was accompanied by some former art students.  This was quite the experience.  They had never been to a "real" art show before, and I got to hang with some of my favorite students.

All in all, the show was great.  My piece was certainly different than the others in the show.  I like to think it really stood out from the rest because of this.  I hope to show more pieces at this gallery...and many others.
