up up & away

I can never pass up a D. Droukas video/photo project. 

So when he texted me on a Wednesday afternoon...

Droukas:Wanna help me put a camera 300 feet in the air

ME: Is there a getaway vehicle involved?

Droukas: Duh! You in?

ME: Absolutley, 5pm my place 

And this the the results:

Thanks D for the fun. 

Studio 2300 Open House

Studio 2300 had their first open house a few nights back.

Faculty members in the UAB Department of Art and Art History and the College of Arts and Sciences celebrated the opening of 10 new artist studios a few nights back @ Studio 2300. 

What  a beautiful facility filled with some talented folks. I am more than a bit jealous of their expansive space, filled with every tool, brush & trinket imaginable. Yet, one of the best quirks of the space is the vast open windows/walls that line each studio. Not that you ever stroll down 7th Avenue South, but if you find yourself in the neighborhood, be sure to pass by the studios and take a sneak peak. There's total transparency, literally and figuratively, you can see straight through into a handful of the 10 studios. Thus far, the studios have remained spotless, we'll see how long that lasts.
