Another Round: Small art for a small venue!

On Tuesday, Jan. 13th I sold some fun art. This is a great way to start the New Year. All the art was no bigger than 7 inches. Hence, small art for a small space. Liz Watkin’s of Urban Stew had this great idea to show at Wally’s, a bar that’s been there for over 50 years. And this was the it’s second art show; last year was the kick off with Urban Stew presents Stories from the Cocktail Napkin. Liz decided to recycle her outdoor umbrella that got attacked by one of our hurricanes. In doing so it turned out to be a great way to show the small art.

I decided to recycle CD’ and DVD’s, using muslin, acrylics and fabric dimensional paints. I just had some fun. And they were a big hit; I sold several. Donna M. Suries was another artist also recycled; and her crushed can art was also a big hit. Donna liked my disk art and I liked hers, so we exchanged.




Here are a couple of new owners of some Sprung Original’s. Thanks R. Merrill and Joe. Others were camera shy.

A Show for Small Work

I’m excited, last year Liz Watkins came up with a brilliant idea to have a show at Wally's Mills Avenue Liquors. And Urban Stew presented Stories from the Cocktail Napkin. It was a hit. Wally’s is this small bar that’s been there forever. There is a liquor store upfront and the bar in the back. So when it comes to wall space for a show there is none. Clothesline hung and the clothespins displayed the art over the patrons heads. Not so high that you can’t see the art. Every time a piece was sold, it was replaced with new or spread out to get a better view.

Oh, but why am I excited. This year’s show; Another Round: Small art for a small venue! Tuesday, January 13, 2009 – 8-11pm. Once again it is at Wally's Mills Avenue Liquors
1001 N. Mills Ave. Orlando, FL 32803.

If you happen to be in the Orlando area, stop on in and buy some art. As Liz says “Don't miss the most talked about art show in Orlando.” This is a one night only exhibit. Original art that is no bigger than 7 inches and prices start at $5 and up.

Here are a few of my recycled CD and DVD’s that now have become some fun creations.

See you on Tuesday, January 13, 2009.
