Here’s my mushy sensitive side for your reading pleasure:

Thank you to everyone who came out for this!
I am very proud of each of the presenters for their thoughtful, insightful, and funny takes about what they do.
I enjoyed the perspective of the evening from the front of the room and even though I had to be bop in and out I was able to really take in the entire vibe. What was very satisfying to me was while listening to the presenters I could see the captivated faces looking up at them:
Cheering on the presenters for their accomplishments.
Laughing along with them over Odd Noggins, Creature Double Feature, and Toilets with water fountains.
In awed of Adoniram’s black and white photography and the quiet inspiration in his philosophy.
Being Fired up during the break
Eveyones smiles as they were leaving
Not only did the presenters knock this event out of the park but the audience did too! Thank you for being so great!
Afterward, as I pulled into my driveway I realized that this is what I have been looking for for a long time, what I have truly been missing in my community. A forum were people can relax, enjoy, share ideas and get inspired. For this to happen in my community I am extremely grateful.

and some pics that Michelle May took

Last week I received a request to submit a 20 second video saying HELLO to Pecha Kucha Night Tokyo #62.
The world wide event hit a few mile stones last week. Hitting the 200 mark for participating cities and hitting a record turn out for #62 in Tokyo. My greeting from Worcester Ma was played to a packed room of 443 people at SuperDeluxe ( an arts events venue owned by the Pecha Kucha founders Klein Dytham Architecture). As the organization continues to grow the founders help keep everyone connected through introducing new cities at the beginning of their events, posting samples of the worldwide events on the headquarters blog. Posting videos of presentations and linking every city on their mainpage.

Here is a sample presentation from Tokyo #62 given by Mark Cooke

Pecha Kucha Night also got a write up in Culture Magazine you can read it here online on pages 54 and 55.

Very Busy Week!
and did I mention Pecha Kucha Night is non profit? Everyone involved has a day job and is passionate about the Pecha Kucha format for sharing ideas and creativity.

Worcester #1 is coming up quick!
June 14th Bocado Tapas Bar 7:20

I introduced new prints last night at my studio, surrounded by my closest friends supporters and collectors. Despite the pouring rain, it proved to be a perfect evening for creative talk about projects, processes, marketing and inspiration. I am grateful to everyone for their kind support that has left me feeling excited and motivated about future projects. These vital, talented and creative people have inspired me to share the story of this painting with a broader audience.

The story of Atmosphere #1, #2 and #3

There are three paintings from the beginning of my art career that mean more to me than I can express. They were the start of what would turn into an ongoing exploration of mood and light through the expression of paint. They also kicked off my interest in alternative formats, circles, triangles, and arches. Architecture incorporated into an art piece that is beyond a canvas in a frame.
These three paintings remind of where I came from, where inspiration was born, what my ideals are, what I can be capable of… For these reasons they are permanently in “the Artists Collection”. Since the day they were completed I’ve had to continually turn down offers to purchase the works because I will not part with them.

Atmosphere #2 is the first of these three works to be made into a museum quality giclee print. The first edition run is valued at $60 each; I launched them at a special price of $45 available at the event only. But I was so touched by the warmth and support of those who attended my opening (some of whom traveled in the pouring rain from across Ma and RI) that I have decided to extend the launching price.

Please contact me by email before the end of April to take advantage of this extended offer.

I am very excited to share my love of this painting and would be pleased for it to have a place in your home as well as mine.
