DALMATIA RESIDENCY FUNDRAISER

On Thursday I will be taking part in a fundraiser for an artist residency in Croatia that Andrew and I will be attending later on this summer... I'll be donating a big screenprint and maybe some smaller lithos, and Andrew will be donating a pen and ink drawing. the work will be sold via silent auction...

Here is the email that my friend Srdjan (the co-ordinator of the residency) sent out regarding the fundraiser...



Dear friends,

The evening will take place at Headbones Gallery on

28

Today is my birthday, which is pretty good I guess, especially because it means that instead of working in the studio I can go watch The Watchmen without very much guilt... :)

The good news is that later today I'll finish the butterfly drawing, I have one butterfly left to draw. In the last 16 months I've drawn 20 009 butterflies... I think that's a lot...

In closing, here's a photo of me today (april 1st 2009) and one taken exactly 26 years ago (april 1st 1983). I think I look a lot older... and hairier... and less excited about cake...


I'll post pictures of the butterfly drawing soon...
