As mentioned earlier, I submitted three pieces to this year’s Horzontal Grandeur show hosted by the Stevens County History Museum. I’m happy to say that two of the three were accepted (above and below).

There will be an opening reception on Friday, 8 July 2011, from 6:30pm to 8:30pm, and it would be super cool to see a lot of people there! Sadly, I won’t actually be one of those people, as Tom and I will be leaving day after tomorrow for a month-long road trip through New England, visiting 10 colleges in 30 days. The ever fabulous Weather Grrrl should be able to attend, however, so you can visit with her and talk about art. :-)

Cool animated GIF of cab going past a shop window.

Jamie Beck and Kevin Burg have made some very cool and wonderfully subtle animated GIFs that may possibly be the most interesting use of that technology that I’ve ever run across. Sadly, a lot of what they’ve done with it isn’t that exciting (lots of clothes and hair moving gently in a breeze), but there are a few examples (such as the one above) that are real gems. If you’re interested you might check out “Far Better Than 3-D: Animated GIFs That Savor A Passing Moment”, a nice article on their work (which is I where I learned about it). You can also see more of their animations here and there.
