fringe festival diagnosis

‘jealousy’ — drawn on the street at the fringe festival, 2008
the fringe festival is finally over (well, three weeks ago). it was very productive in many ways. i got a nice suntan and a knife stuck in my heart. as usual, people said to me whatever they felt like saying. it was wonderful and amusing.
i was surprised that many people remembered or recognized my drawings from my show at the mendel gallery over a year ago. some people even remembered them from my show at royal red gallery at phonographique three years ago. a few people told me there were looking for me at this fringe this year since i wasn’t there last year. the best moment was when a guy told me that he’d had seen one of the drawings, ‘inseparable’ somewhere, but he couldn’t remember where. he left then came back just to tell me the postcard was up on the fridge door at his friend’s house. he was so excited he came back for the third time to show my work to one of his friends. i was very touched by all this. so thanks and arigato!
i kept track of comments that i enjoyed. so here’s the diagnosis;
i feel so energized and encouraged. thanks for all the encouragement and cheering as well as your nasty looks. i did a couple of drawings sitting at my booth and i’ve been drawing away ever since.
more soon, including news about shows i’m doing in september…
