This Saturday from 2 – 9 J and I will be part of a new annual event called “Springboard“. I will be in studio J at the main building while J will be at the Satellite space along with many other artists. We’d love to see you come down to look and talk about art.

Springboard into art – Visit Austin’s largest studio complexes: Pump Project, Pump Project Satellite, Big MediumArtpost in one Saturday! Spend the afternoon exploring unique facilities that provide studio space for over eighty artists and artisans working in an array of styles and media. Browse the studios to meet local artists, see their work and ask questions about their process – and maybe even find something special to take home. Hop on a bike to make the short ride between locations! Check out the members page of Pump Project’s website to see who you can visit! and

In addition to open artist’s studios there will be an artist talk with sculptor Hank Waddell about his installation Wonderlanded in Pump Project’s main gallery Saturday at 5 pm.

Also, this Saturday May 15th, from 5-7, our friend Daniel Garcia is hosting a live drawing session at House Wine over off Barton Springs, just past Lamar. We will be drawing customers and of course selling work. If you’ve never drawn in a public setting before it’s great fun and a good exercise. Just bring whatever you would need to draw with including some sort of support or easel (I like to bring a French easel) and be prepared for some short sittings with customers.

If you are interested, please email Daniel at daniellewisgarcia@yahoo.com to let him know you plan to attend so we can be better prepared to handle the group.

Hope to see you there!

“Know what the old masters did. Know how they composed their pictures, but do not fall into the conventions they established. These conventions were right for them, and they are wonderful. They made their language. You make yours. All the past can help you.” ~ Robert Henri

We have a new model tomorrow, Lisa Anne who is a dance student over at UT.
