Priscilla Fowler Current Exhibits

I learned about this artist from a link in ART MARKETING ACTION, the weekly newsletter from Alyson B. Stanfield - ArtBizCoach (she also has a great blog: ArtBizBlog). Her work is gorgeous! I am very inspired by the simplicity of color and design - the work is very powerful and I'm sure in person it would be even more compelling. The piece shown above is part of "Dispersion, a multi-part work 11' x 7'6" completed during the artist's residency, consists of 15 drawings, each 24" x 30", in sepia ink on painted paper." Please visit the artist's website to see more!

10 Years Ago - meme found on Loobylu

10 Years Ago :: Loobylu:
this looks so cool - Colin, I would totally love to see what you come up with... I might try it... (go check out Loobylus finished comic, it's cool)

“Draw a ten panel comic about what you were doing ten years ago. Put pen straight to paper - no pencil, no computer, no planning, no starting again if you make a mistake. Simply draw, scan, publish. Tag some people who you’d like to see do the meme too. Oh and if you want to do it even if you haven’t been tagged you are most welcome!”"
