Off the Wall post mortem

Monday, October 12th, 2009

Getting to posting this a little late, but I was in LA for a week. Anyway, I wanted to share some pics from the “Off the Wall” art show. It went well. I met some really awesome people and got a much bigger display area at this show (4×8ft). I spraypainted a neon pink, yellow, green & silver background of “asa no ha” pattern, over which resided eight large prints. (click the pics to go to their respective Flickr pages with bigger views):

In other news, while at the show, I met Charlie Jane Anders from io9.com while at the show, and she featured my work on the site the following week. That was pretty rad! (I was also in the week recap)

Let’s see what else is new… I’m tabling for my fourth year in a row at APE this coming week, but more on that in my next post…
