"I AM HERE"- Dallas Independent Artists Community

I will be showing this weekend in Dallas with members of my Artists Group "5D" and other Dallas Collectives-

The DIAC is hosting a large exhibition aimed at unifying Dallas’ local talent within the arts, music, and performance.

The event will be at South Side on Lamar on the dates of May 29th from 7pm-11pm and May 30th from 1pm-11pm. South Side on Lamar is located at 1409 S Lamar St, Dallas, TX 75215.

"I AM HERE"- The DIAC Trade Show is meant to bring awareness and unity to the artists of Dallas. The event will showcase over 200 artists and all artwork will be available for either purchase or trade. By trade we mean that we want everyone to have the opportunity to own original artwork and we're willing to let you offer us something in trade for it: services, products, cash, or whatever. Come with your best offers.Art and music will be dispersed throughout the building’s various rooms and venues, arranged by collectives and groups, so as to bring awareness to all that they do and provide. As visitors move through the event, they will be able to become familiar with the many artist residencies and businesses that exist in South Side as well.

The Dallas Independent Artists Community is an umbrella organization dedicated to bringing unity to the artists and collectives of Dallas, and to bringing purpose and vision to the work of the individual artist. The DIAC brings awareness to what is already taking place in the art community, everyday, within the various collectives that already exist.

Without seeking membership, the DIAC strives to be a community hub which serves as the earpiece and mouthpiece for the artists in Dallas as a whole. By providing education and guidance, pooling our collective resources, and stressing the need for community, the DIAC works to strengthen and empower the artists of Dallas.

Music that rings my head and thoughts that conspire......

So I recently had a dream about some new paintings that I assume I must now begin.  In my dream they were quite large but then again I had just watched Synecdoche, which was absolutely brilliant, once again Charlie Kaufman astounds me.  And as I await my favorite childrens book adaptation "Where the Wild Things Are" by my other peer Spike Jonze my childhood memories flood my dreams and thoughts in a 16mm like reflection.  I remember reading Maurice Sendaks story on a nightly basis in the late 70's and running around the house as Max with bewildering creativity.   "The night Max wore his wolf suit and made mischief of one kind..."  The story begins..... Here are some incredible sounds for your soul...these are musings for my next group of paintings that will all be done on 7 foot wood panels..
