T-Minus 11 days 'til Twist and there are still a million things to do. This will be the first of my shows this season and (hopefully) will involve the most preparation. The other ones will be a piece of cake after that right? RIGHT?!
So as I'm spending most of my time preparing for shows (Bazaar Bizarre will be a whole other post unto itself) I find my days are pretty uninteresting as far as blogging material goes. "Got up and worked all day, blah blah blah. Made more pieces, yadda yadda...".
So in lieu of filling you in on the minutia of show preparation, I thought it might behoove me to give a little love to some of my personal favorite Twist vendors and entice you, my lovely readers, to attend the show and see (and perhaps buy some of) the goodies for yourselves!
First up, my friend Maeg Yosef of Edison Rex. She makes amazing prints of her original artwork and word on the street is she's got some new toys to debut at the show this year...
Another favorite 2D artist of mine is Julie Beck. This woman does things with acrylic paint that would make a tube of oil paint blush. I own a couple of her pieces myself and if you have the means I highly recommend picking one up- they are so choice.
In a more three-dimensional arena there are such wonderful things as jewelry from DA Metals- she makes these totally fun, colorful pieces of jewelry from silver and enamel in all these different modular designs. Very cool things.
Maybe an amazing belt from AWC Designs?...
...Or fantastic measuring spoons from Beehive Kitchenware?I could go on forever.
There are so many talented people in this show, I am honored to be among them. SO, guys and gals- the long and the short of it is, you should come to this show.
Northampton Center for the Arts
Friday November 12th from 6pm-9pm and
Saturday November 13th from 10am-6pm.
P.S. Did I mention there's beer and food?
Kerri, thanks for including my Wooded Sea print in your Twist round up! I can't wait for the show and your felt pieces look amazing!
