Become an Art Prostitute


I attended the opening of the Art Prostitute gallery in Deep Ellum last Saturday night. Great Time! First off, the opening was a huge success, people filling the gallery and lining the streets. Second, I LOVED the show. Dave Kinsey's illustrative paintings are gorgeous, have a lot of life and spark to them. As a cartoonist, I was particularly attracted to his controlled linework. (see above painting) You can check out his site at http://www.kinseyvisual.com/

Aside from the show, I just really loved the gallery too. It's a cool space, they had a DJ supplying beats for the opening, and they were selling comics in the gift shop. Score! Anyway, tomorrow I have a meeting with the owner to show him my work. I was just so comfortable at the gallery that I'd love to become involved, possibly show there.

So wish me luck on that. And I think the gallery is a great place to check out. It's right downtown, very fun, very welcoming, and free. Here's the site:
