Just another day in Paradise!

 Always having fun at the eve-N-odd! Sara is one of our loyal customers!  She stopped in to show us one of her new tattoos!  People are what make the world go round! 

quilt I started on Friday... we'll see how it progresses!

If mail art is your thing... 5th annual Mail Art Show!

For years I have been doing group mail art shows... you might remember the first show was Self Portrait and was shown at the Globe Coffee Lounge in St. Petersburg.  The next show was called Chromatophore and was installed by me at the Studio @620.  Last year's show was UR Toy Story and was shown at Artpool on 1st Avenue north!  This year's show was called Utopia/Dystopia and was shown at eve-N-odd!  So now I am announcing the current mail art call:

ART LETTERS. 

Perhaps you are thinking of the lost art of letter writing... It is a lost art.  But, I'm not really thinking about traditional letters with this call...  I guess what I'm thinking about is the kind of letters that I send out... fully illustrated... or collaged...mixed with hand written statements and even poetry.  But, like any art show, your work is your own... and must be interpreted by you.  And perhaps I am asking something too difficult and time consuming... the choice is yours!  I don't mind if the future show will be quaint and fantastic... I'm kinda hoping for that. 

Art Letters can be sent to:

Jennifer Kosharek
eve-N-odd gallery
645 Central Ave #11
St. Petersburg, FL 33701

All work will be documented on www.jenniferzoe.blogspot.com
No work will be returned.
All work will be part of the Kosharek mail art archives.
And I probably won't have time to write you back.  You should feel free to write to anyone that you see on my blog. 

 

Due Date is August 1, 2012

Happy Writing!

Sketchbook Project 2011 TOUR WINTERPARK, FL

Great news!  You can still sign up to participate in next year's sketchbook project TOUR!  I'm trying to get the guys to come to St. Petersburg!  A link to sign up for the project... HERE! 

Yes, I was impressed by the bathrooms at Full Sail University!

Checking out sketchbooks was a lot of fun!  You got to have your own library card and then you could check out sketchbooks by artist, subject or country of origin.  Not a bad way to spend an afternoon!

eve-N-odd is proud to let you know that a wonderful artist of ours is featured in a new book! David Berube did all the artwork for this book of poetry and art!

It Ain't Truth If It Doesn't Hurt
Poetry by Brandon Lacy Campos & Artwork by David Berube

It Ain't Truth If It Doesn't Hurt is spoken word artist Brandon Lacy Campos' first collection of poetic works that stretch, snap, engage, top, bottom, flip, and serve the intersections of race, class, sexual orientation, gender, lust, love, sex, HIV, and politics.

From his personal life narrative to his political outrage to his out of control romantic heart, It Ain't Truth If It Doesn't Hurt walks the line of pain and pleasure and brings to light some of the truths that slice us open, turn us inside out and sometimes sew us back together.

Each of the poems in this collection are matched with a print from artist David Berube's “Face a Day” collection.

You can purchase this book HERE.
