I'm still not sure what to with this blog thing.
So thought I'd tell ya the latest on 19th Street.
Just visited 19th, dropping off some postcards for the market ya know,
and wondered how many of the artists out there are aware of a new gallery
opening next week.
Everyone knows Gallery 19 right? Well Max Harrison, one of the founders left
awhile back and he is now BACK, next door.
So keep an eye out or drop by to see if there is space available.
M2 325 West 19th Street 713-861-6070
GREAT space too! Max & Mikes' opening is on Sept 17th.
Gallery 19 is also having a show that night and Wind Water Gallery is having
their grand re-opening in their new store the same day/night.
Busy day that'll be.
I should have something from both galleries to post here soon.
Gallery 19 got the courtyard next door and they are planning on opening it
up on weekends as an art garden/market kinda thing. More competition!
Woo Hoo!
I booked M2 for June 2006 for an Artists At Large Show.....no idea what we'll
do there yet...
Okay...off to the Studio Gallery!

Cocktails First, Questions Later...
I will NOT explain that title...one person knows what it means and I'm happy with that! Watch for an art show with a similar name however.
Happy Hour was great! Never know who's going to show and that just makes it that much more fun.
Thanks to Martin for holding our table down, we needed the same table man. Vera came and spread her infectious smile to all!
A great gal. Next week Vera's planning on showing her artwork, and I of course promise to broadcast the event when I get it.
As a group, we decided to put out a vote on the art show that's been proposed for rejected artists of juried shows. This would be for artists that have consistantly applied for shows and been rejected....then go to the show and are absolutley horrified at the entries that made it! I say we let the rejected artists be the jury.
Well...one of the cats just busted into the room.....gotta go!
Shake a hand and don't drink the lemonade...just yet!

The moon climbs slowly and bright in front of a dark blue sky, that bleeds into a pale gray city lit horizon as I take a drag on my cigarette as if it were my last. I contemplate. I think. I promise. I say tomorrow.

MONDAY!
MONDAY!
What's going on!?
I don't often write here....just post stuff. Don't know why. I wonder too, who reads this stuff anyway? I read my friends blogs....Michael Ann's is fun, you never know what she'll post on there.
She always has great photos that I threaten to steal and post here. So why don't you just go visit when you are done reading this....if you're still here! Still working on that big house posted here a few weeks ago. It's coming along nicely and I'll post new photos when we have something worthy of your attention.
Went to the Keeline Gallery opening Saturday night. Very nice space. Had some cooling issues though. It was CROWDED! Tim Snider's work went over very well and he sold several paintings.
I love openings, you just never know who you might run into. I'm not going make this a who's who posting, but I saw a lot of people! All the success to Karen Keeline, she's got a great space and opened with some incredible talent. Check it out.
Okay. If I just start writing like I talk I know things will turn strange here! OH, I know...who
went to the Alamo Draft House Monday night and saw Kyle Fu's movie? I forgot about the showing. For some reason we are on EVERYONES mailing list except Gallery 19, so I find out aobut their events to late. Ahhhhhhh well, poor me.
We went to the Astros game yesterday. What fun! A full day...breakfast-ball game-
Beer at the Balcony after...pool games...then drum lessons, singing and mayhem!
Crazy Baby!
Here's my favorite quote of the day:
A cucumber should be well-sliced, dressed with pepper and vinegar, and then thrown out.
- Samuel Johnson
Okay one more for a you know who you are:
Maude: A lot of people enjoy being dead. But they are not dead, really. They're just backing away from life. *Reach* out. Take a *chance*. Get *hurt* even. But play as well as you can. Go team, go! Give me an L. Give me an I. Give me a V. Give me an E. L-I-V-E. LIVE!
[beat]
Maude: Otherwise, you got nothing to talk about in the locker room.
Cheers!

The US Navy today announced that it has released a senior Al Quaeda terrorist after questioning him extensively for 27 days while being held prisoner aboard a US aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea.
In a humanitarian gesture, the terrorist was given $50 US and a white 1962 Ford Fairlane automobile upon being released from custody.
The attached photo shows the terrorist on his way home just after being released by the Navy.
