New Work, Part II

. . . just the tip of the ice berg mind you:

New Work, Part I

Using digital images of my originals I am selecting details, repeating, flipping and cropping until I'm satisfied. Then I have them printed with lightfast inks on archival canvas which I can stretch and paint on. Haven't settled on how to present them, but they keep coming anyway.

Special Performance by: NANDA

CHECK OUT WHAT BROUGHT THIS ON NOW:

An anonymous donor in our community has offered the Boiler Room a $25,000 MATCHING GRANT which would go towards our capital campaign fund if we can raise the same amount by the end of June. As you might know, the Boiler Room is in the process of paying off its building, so this is an amazing opportunity to make some serious progress! Our total debt of $325.000.00 is due as a balloon payment in 2016, but we hope to reduce it significantly much earlier, to cut monthly interest payments.

In an effort to raise money we have staged a series of three fundraising events with the help of Boyd Grafmyre, a legendary promoter who ran the Eagles Auditorium in Seattle during the late 60s and 70s, as well as organized The Seattle Pop Festival in 1969 (featuring Led Zeppelin and The Doors, Chuck Berry, Tina Turner and others) and has become a regular patron of the Boiler Room since last fall.

Image Fix, I & II: From "two sides to every story"

Thanks for the seat

So the Chair Affair was last night, sounds like it went great. Last I heard they'd raised $8,300 and the donations are still coming in!
Chair photo by Katy Laveck and Nick Reid

I got a little tender about letting go of the kid rocking chair I'd painted and donated, but so be it, to the highest bidder it shall go. Then at the last minute a bunch of my family showed up, all pitched in for it and got the chair for my girls. So sweet! Thanks Ma and Uncle Wayne, Aunt Vickie, Cousins Valerie and Vanessa (up for a weekend visit).

That is Dare sitting in it, but Emerald made the quotable comment when she got to sit in it, "It's like sitting in magic! It is like I'm sitting in one of Mom's paintings and you're not even supposed to touch paintings!"

Another blog for Centrum:

tiny + rage = love

From Ten Tiny Dances, performed in Seattle, September 2007. Choreographed and performed by Amy O'Neal, Music by Zeke Keeble.

On a tiny stage in the round Amy O'Neal is my current favorite time-based kinetic sculpture. A stretch perhaps, but it won't be the last time you catch me showing disregard for the boundaries which are rumored to separate performing and visual art. As part of One Tiny Dance, this piece was originally performed in the lobby of Pacific Northwest Ballet during their Celebrate Seattle Festival. Amy says, "At that time it was untitled with a slightly more playful energy. There were a lot of kids around me dancing with me while I was performing--it was so great!" The piece took on a new vibe and gained a title at Ten Tiny Dances, "It became about owning my anger and channeling it positively, to move forward . . . . embracing my history as a woman and as a dancer."
