Worked my first volunteer shift at the Eclectic Gallery today.
It was great. The owners of the gallery also have a very nice
apartment above it (they rent it out to people
that are visiting the town or staying in town for more than a
couple months, usually artists and writers). The shift was from
2:00pm
- 8:00pm
and I learned all the basics of running their shop. I hope
to have some links to this gallery and the Art Center soon.

Been working on some very cool Flash porjects for one of my clients
(interactive forms that submit to a PHP file and then send email.
PHP works great with Flash. Check out www.flashkit.com or www.flash-db.com for tutorials.

First Art outing in Battle Creek (other than going to the Art
Center of Battle Creek). Went to my first opening at the Eclectic
Gallery
the show was called "Chaos Theory" Art of Ron Holder.
The show featured a variety of work (colored pencil, acrylic
paintings,
water colors and digital photography). Seemed that the bulk of
the work was non subjective with an emphasis on color and comopsition
(I read the local free paper (Shopper) and that is what the Artist
said about the body of work so that is what I looked for). Only
one of the paintings didn't have a signature (stuck out to me).
After talking with the Artist he pointed out that all the paintings
were signed (some just more hidden than others).
I think this will be a first in many outings to the gallery (possibly
redoing the galleries website for membership) |
Updates 10/03 (general
update)
Looking for more clients. I talked with the Art Center of Battle
Creek and told them I would volunteer my time to get a new look and
feel going for their website and they said that would be fine (I
will post a link to the mockups soon). I may also be getting a couple
more website jobs based on volunteering website services for trade
(free food rocks). Hotset (my first Battle Creek client) projects
are going great.
