Coming up this weekend and every first Saturday and Sunday of the month is the great antique market in Arezzo, a must for art/antique lovers with its medieval walls, Roman ruins, Renaissance architecture and Piero della Francesca murals in the church of San Francesco.

Taking place in Piazza Grande, Piazza San Francesco, and the Vasari Loggia, it spills into most streets in the historic center.
During my first gallery show I had a different version of a comment book. My 1948 Smith-Corona “Corona Silent, Floating Shift” Typewriter was the tool I used to get my visitors to engage in my artwork.
Some of the notes were adorable, being that many of the students had never used a typewriter and a very select few did not even know how to load the paper. But here is a selection of the ones that stood out.

So I’ve been really proactive about entering contests, applying for scholarships and grants these past couple of years. Many times I get rejected but I never give up. So I am asking all of you to help get me voted as the best Art Student. I know there are so many contests but tell your friends and let’s see how legitimate this one is.
To Vote for this image. Not sure why just one.

So I work at an after school program in San Jose called Peapod Adobe Youth Voices Academy. It’s new to the area and to us. The best part is the students that walk through the door are really good kids and have hidden talents they don’t realize are talents. Like these bicycles made out of those tiny black wires they wrap around electrical cords.

Next month I will be showing my Transportation Project at a gallery at school. If you are local or nearby definitely check it out. I’ve been stealing semi tire scraps from the local freeway to give all of you an idea of what the show will be like. :)
