THE COLORING BOOK SHOW

Hello everyone! I am thrilled to be announcing the opening of the "Coloring Book show."  Friday, June 22 will be opening night... 5pm to 7:30pm! 

The Coloring Book show is two-fold... there will be illustrations and art hanging on the wall and secondly, there is a published soft cover coloring book, "Color" available for purchase.  64 artists come together to make one coloring book.  64 illustrations for your coloring pleasure!  Pre-sales are available HERE.  Every artist will receive a free copy of the book.  This project was funded by a KICKSTARTER.  Which means that generous donations payed for the printing and shipping of the books!
Here is a list of the participating artists: from as far away as Japan and Brazil and as close to home as the 600 Block of Central Avenue!

Global Sketchbook Project Day!

I have participated in several Arthouse Coop projects but the project that I love the most is the SKETCHBOOK project.  I have completed 5 sketchbooks and four of them can be seen in Brooklyn at the Brooklyn Art Library, the first one... can be seen at the gallery this weekend! (this was a sketchbook done before the Library was invented)  I have been to NY for one of the Sketchbook Project openings and last summer I traveled to Maitland, FL to see the traveling sketchbook show.  So when Arthouse declared June 3rd as Global Sketchbook Project day... well I had to get on board!  eve-N-odd gallery is proud to host the day... celebrating with live demos, personal sketchbooks to have a gander at, snacks and even add-N-pass sketchbooks to participate in.  So I hope you come out to the Crislip arcade and see what we have going on this Sunday--from 11 am to 3 pm! 

KICKSTARTER for COLORING BOOK SHOW

Hi!  Would you like to support the arts?  I do a lot of group art projects and this time around I will be making a group coloring book.  I want the book to be a professionally bound undertaking.  I have started a KICKSTARTER Project where anyone can donate money--as little as a dollar!  There are incentives for people to donate--like thank you gifts of original art!   I hope you take time out to GIVE to the gallery. 

I am still looking for illustrations for the coloring book show.  The show will be in two parts--1) A jpeg of the line drawing emailed to me at:  evenoddgallery@gmail.com 2) An original piece of art sent to the gallery to be hung on the wall for the show opening!  I hope you consider joining in on the fun!

DONATE HERE!
