We did the pinup show at Mint Gallery last night. My cards didn’t sell, but Nick sold one each of I’ve Got a Secret and Murphy’s Law. :-)
My pieces are photos I took at the Atlanta Botanical Garden. I took them into Photoshop and made them monochrome then ran the Ink Outlines filter on them. Once that was done I cropped them and printed them out on cold press watercolor paper. Then I took the original photos as a guide and handpainted the postcards with watercolors. Here they are:
Nick used a pic I took of DJ on the deck, a photo taken by his Dad in 1971 (Dog and cat, entitled “I’ve got a secret”.) and his Murphy’s law piece. Here they are (Sorry for the flash on DJ. The laser ink is rather shiny.):
It was really great to be in a show even if mine didn’t sell. I got lots of compliments. And we won 2 tix to Dad’s Garage as well as a $50 Gift Cert from some chi-chi place in Va Highland. If they gave a $50 gift cert, I’m sure their stuff is too pricey for me, but I’ll check it out to see.
It was a very fun night!
