Boardwalk Bar part 9

 For the moment there is nothing to do with immediate deadlines, so it's finally back to work on my current block.  I got up there in the late morning, and saw a few more artworks up on the wall.  Not all of them yet, but it's getting there.  I went to my space.  Checked at the office, but no one was there.  Then to work

My plan for today was to continue on the bar ceiling, which is based on the ceiling at the Headliner, and from the photos, it looks like a stretched fabric.  Still outlining big shapes, so I will eventually have to go in and hollow them out, but that can wait until I look at the photos again and see what is actually there, not just the lines I drew.  Cutting went faster than I expected, so I finished the top layer of ceiling and started on the next level.  Better not cut too much; I have to leave some stuff for the 19th, as I will be there for several hours.  Results of today's work can be seen below:

More old favorites out of the storage box today.  My original plan was to listen to my home recorded disc of Lightnin' Hopkins, but it turned out I brought the wrong home burned disc with me.  So I went with my next option, a disc sent by my friend Doug, back in 2011.  It had two albums on it.  It started with El Camino by the Black Keys.  I've heard plenty by this band and generally liked it, and this album was no exception.  I already knew two of the songs from radio, and the rest was enjoyable.  That ended and I got the next album, Scandalous by Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears.  Not a bad album, but nothing special either.  I expect to listen to the first half a lot more.  Still, it was all good music to work to.

On the way out I stopped again at the office, and this time Jeanne was in.  What I wanted to know (asked by Molly in an email to me) was if there was going to be an opening for the new show.  Jeanne gave me the new postcard.  Looks a lot like the old postcard, except on the front is something about the Resident Art Show opening.  It's at the same time as the Open Studio, so I guess I will miss it.  The back of the new card lists all the places with studios, and which will be participating in the Open Studio. Only about half of the studios will be open to the public.  At least as of now.  I would not be surprised if some of the others showed up that day and opened their spaces up, just maybe didn't let Jeanne know before the deadline last week.  She gave me a stack of the new cards (arrived today she said) to hand out to interested parties. I went on my way to the next stop.
