Getting ready for San Diego’s Firehouse World where BETTER ANGELS is a featured exhibit. (see:Firehouse World for more info.)
We will be on the convention floor, so the exhibit will be open to the general public only by paying the admission fee. However, there will also be a lot of shiny fire trucks around for all those little boys who love them so much…
I ordered a better camera today so I can take better pictures of the audience with BETTER ANGELS. That interaction has always been what I love most about sharing these paintings. I learn something new every single time.
I am also thrilled that in San Diego a young woman named Rachel will be able to see the paintings for the first time. Back in 2005 when I began BETTER ANGELS, Rachel was an art major at CU Boulder. She became my intern for one semester during which she burned and prepped all the blocks of wood that would become the paintings. She did an impeccable job and I will be so happy to see her again.
Further updates:
Unfortunately we will no longer be bringing BETTER ANGELS to FDIC in Indianapolis, but we will be going to the CPSE Excellence Conference in Las Vegas in early March. The exhibit will be FREE and open to the general public at the Aliante Casino Hotel from 3/5 – 3/9, so if you’re in the area or know someone who is, please let them know.
