Summer’s ending art and such

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

1st Thursday in Seattle. Almost didn’t go. Starting a new job this fall, getting my classroom ready, not too sure I had it in me. Fortunately I found my 7th wind and carried on. Last night’s art viewing was a treat indeed, inevitably it was fun to see friends and some nice sightings here and there. I didn’t make it everywhere, of course, but here were some highlights. Plus I missed taking pictures along the way. Sometimes I am so distracted and in awe that I forget. SOIL had some lovely work…too crowded though (a good sign), and I was mesmerized by the quiet potential in the space, so sadly no pics of that.

Some other sitings though…

Amanda Manitach and Todd Jannausch, I hear rumors of a show...with MEAT!
