Grey Gallery Exhibition

farmerbob — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 07:43:31 +0000

In a rather unfortunate turn of events Grey Gallery will be closing to reopen in a new space later this Fall. In lieu of the solo exhibit we had scheduled for September of this year I will be showing a few pieces for the rest of the month of June. The opening reception for this exhibition is on Thursday June 10th, 6-9pm. If you live in the Seattle area, I hope to see you there.

When: Thursday June 10th, 6-9pm
Where: Grey Gallery, 1512 11th Avenue, Seattle, Washington 98122

Virtual studio visit

Bradford Bohonus came by the studio again recently and took another “look” around the studio.

Check out the most recent virtual tour and then look at the one taken a couple of years ago.

Bone Cave Ballet T-shirts

farmerbob — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 19:27:57 +0000

I’d like to share a t-shirt design I made for Bone Cave Ballet, a local Seattle band last year.

For $15.00 you can’t go wrong. They still have a few available if you’d like to pick one up for yourself or a friend. The “purchase button” below links to their paypal account. They have green and tan shirts available. If you want to find out if they have your size email them at bonecaveballet at gmail. They’re good looking shirts if I say so myself.

farmerbob — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 19:54:28 +0000

The next Drum of the Draw, on October 23rd, is being held at Halogen Gallery this month. I am excited about this one. I will be hand-coloring some recent etchings for this event. I hope to see you there.

“Drum of the Draw” is a monthly live, invitational drawing event that brings artists and their creative process to the public for one night each month. The artists create original drawings while the public is invited to enjoy refreshments, observe the artists at work and purchase art as it is completed. None of the work is over $200.00, making it an affordable way to purchase works from some of your favorite Seattle artists.

Participating artists are:

Daniel Mitchell
Karin Yamagiwa
Ninjagrl
Robert Hardgrave
Soopajdelux
Suzanne Kaufman
Todd Lown

When: October 23rd, 2009, 5-9pm
