two months away

the days are getting longer and my time is growing shorter. i'm spending my spring break collecting my projects, making editions of prints, adding in more light glosses, ordering postcards, designing a book, and being just a little too busy for my own good.

* thanx to all that came out in support last sunday for seattle impressions!

This painting is in tribute to my extraordinary Grandparents. I gifted it to them on their 50th anniversary this last December. My Grandparents are amazing people owe have taught me much about life and love. The referencing image is of their wedding day in 1959 (their first photograph taken as a couple.)

Seattle Impressions..

Seattle Impressions Benefit Art Showcase

$1 minimum donation

Fueled by his loyalty to a good friend who is mired in legal and financial troubles, Jake Clifford has tied this love for a brother and pillar of the community into a major Seattle arts event. Jake's drive has attracted the allegiance of a growing battalion of artists, and created a network of radical friendships that will continue to manifest. Seattle has made an impression upon us, and we're going to leave an impression of our own. People should go to the end of the earth for each other, and no one should go to the end of the earth alone. Paintings, photos, poetry, video, ceramics, books, coloring books, djs, food, drink. First 75 people through the door get slap bracelets. Ranger IPA on tap.

JAKE CLIFFORD - photography. GERARDO GONZALEZ – glasscasting, ceramics. MILES BURNETT – video. MANDILLA – painting. GREGORY HOFMANN – painting, literature, grill. MATT GANO – spoken word.
