I have three of my butterfly paintings in the 2009 IndyFringe Festival. Thistles, Fluttering Cosmopolitan, and Cynthesis were mentioned in my prior post, Trio of Painted Lady Butterflies. You can see thumbnails in that post. These works can be seen at Henry’s on East, 627 East Street, Friday, August 7, 5 – 9 pm.  Cafes, theaters and spaces along Mass Ave. have been transformed into art galleries for the IndyFringe Festival. Add it to your usual IDADA First Friday Art Walk on August 7th. I hope to see you there, but if you can’t make that Friday, then the work will be on display until August 30th.

You can vote

Make sure to stop by the temporary galleries to vote for your favorite piece of art to become one of those “Be Indypendent” stickers you have seen on your neighbors’ cars. Complimentary Barefoot Bubbly champagne cocktails will be served at each Fringe gallery, too.

The 2009 VisualFringe galleries are: Mass Ave Wine Shoppe, Theatre on the Square, Franklin Barry Gallery, Henry’s on East, Hoaglin To Go Café, Herron School of Art and Design at The Earth House, and the Fringe Gallery. Visit IndyFringe for more info and full gallery addresses.

I will be showing a piece in VisualFringe 2008 at The Kuaba Gallery. The Kuaba Gallery is in the last strip of shops on Massachusetts Avenue going away from Downtown. The opening reception is August 1, 2008. Yes, that’s the same night as SmallerIndiana’s Elegant Funk, but Wug Laku’s gallery is just few blocks up the street. Voting for “viewers choice” will be conducted August 1st and 2nd. Patrons’ favorite artwork will be designated as one of the six new Be Indypendent stickers to be used throughout the campaign. I would appreciate your vote. If you are unable to make it on August 1st, my piece, Appearing, will be on display until August 30th.
