The PR junket for VESSEL has begun and invites for the opening reception on May 19th have started to go out via email. Sending the "e-vites" is my way of being more eco and budget friendly. I have uploaded the promo picture for the young artists for VESSEL. The pictures were taken by the students on campus, but the background picture was actually taken when I was in Seattle back in March for the National Art Educators Conference. I was inspired by the picture as the modern metal columns reminded me of Greek ruins. The ancient culture of the Greeks was one of the paramount cultures we studied this year for inspiration for our ceramic vessels. It was epic as the ancient gods and monsters of Greece came to life in their constructions and glazework.

Art production is very close to being complete, just a few odds and ends to fire, but the real work of getting the show up is now underway. By May 2nd, the works will be completely up and ready for the opening. Silent auction pieces will be feature here on this blog in a few weeks.
