Idle Hands Reception

Last night was the opening reception for my current solo show at the M. Christina Geis Gallery at Georgian Court University. It was a little quieter than expected, probably because Monday is a slow day in the department. I estimate between 30 and 40 total people came through the gallery, most of those students from the few classes going on. Those who did come got to enjoy some tasty food (once we found it- it had been delivered to the wrong location first) and of course, the art. Most popular were the new tower print, my September 11 print, and a few individual supermarkets and Ecclesiastes prints. Also many positive general comments regarding my use of color and the titles of the works. Lots more students will be around the building in the coming days and weeks, so the work will be seen by many more people. I hope they all enjoy it, get excited about printmaking (especially woodcuts), and maybe inspired to try some interesting and unusual subjects in their own work.
