All things Provo and a Preview

WHAT TO DO IN PROVO TONIGHT
So Provo has a very small scene but there's some good stuff within walking distance of MODE. A block away at VELOUR, the Electoral College (rock indie) will be playing an all ages show.

Across the street at SPARK you can check out their Virgin bar. Yes, that's right... the sweetest alcohoLESS bar/lounge you'll ever visit. so get your spiced virgin mojito... haha, only in UT.

Pennyroyal Cafe is a rad little cafe/gallery/late night hang out. Open late for gallery stroll. perfect place to chill with friends. Just a block North of MODE.

For a game of billiards, bowling and arcade, FatCats is just up the street.

Also, MODE will be offering an additional 20% off every purchase for gallery stroll patrons tonight!! There's some really awesome clothes so check them out!

A PREVIEW



















a crappy iphone photo... but here's a sneak peak at one of the pieces. Dustin, katie and I set up the show last night (haha more like this morning) and it's looking good. See you tonight!

making messes

so the past week has been an art making mess.
i have seven pieces in the works and a house that's a disaster.
the kid and i went downtown and scavenged through the basement of sam wellers... $200 worth of old books later which are soon to to be destroyed. the best find is a red book from 1909 that says "STAY OUT OF MY LIFE" in big letter on the cover, and another book from 1927 with a letter handwritten by the author found in an envelope on the inside! i've been a little bit manic... music blasting nights - building frames, tearing apart books, piles of old maps, tons of epoxy burning candles and of course using all my kitchen utensils for it. i'm determined to fight the winter funk this year or at least spew it's emotion across tons of canvases.

here's a peak at the mess.
I'll put pics of the pieces up once they're done
