It's coming this weekend...

A little behind-the-scenes action at the Lynnwood main library... installation day for the "It's Not Easy Being Green" exhibit.

Fred Wong and Marianne Johnson of the Arts Commission began set-up in the gallery a couple days ago. 

So while they unpacked, of course I had to take a look at some of the other "Green" artworks...

Remember, the opening is this Saturday, 11am to noon (and possibly a little over, since Fred and Marianne will be giving a bit of a tour of the pieces).

Let me know if I'll see you there: leave a comment here, or let me know on my Facebook fan page.

Pre-Artfest adventure

The Boy and I took a trip to Seattle's Pioneer Square for a little adventure:

open house at Teesha and Tracy Moore's new Artfest Annex.

Teesha and Tracy want their new loft to be a meeting spot and class venue during the rest of the year... kind of a mini-Artfest high outside of Artfest weekend. (They'll have classes posted soon on their website.)

Teesha invited The Boy to contribute a doodle to her latest journal...

So while he hung out with Journalfest instructor (and my pal) Liesel...

I wandered around and soaked up the poster-ized journal pages.

Yes, the journals are even cooler in person.

And fresh Zettiology stamps waiting to be mailed... it's like hanging out in the magician's workshop.  

Hope we can go back there soon!

What's not to like?

I have no idea where my artwork will be placed yet for the opening reception of the upcoming gallery reception on October 2nd. But I stopped by the Lynnwood main library gallery to check out the possibilities.

To keep y'all updated on this and other events, I figured it was time to take the plunge... and create a Facebook fan page. Yes, I have joined the Borg, complete with plug-in/Like button at the top of the right-hand column.

Like some of my other artist friends, I was a leetle bit weirded out at the idea. Asking my friends to make "fans" out of themselves? Don't you have to have a world tour in the works and ridiculous demands specifying that there will only be blue M&Ms and Twizzlers backstage in the green room? I have friends, not groupies. As far as I know.

Fear not. I've decided the fan page is really my When and Where You Can See Me Being an Artist in Public page. And you guys are my Friends Who Might Like to Know When I'm Being Publicly Artistic.

So go over to the right-hand column of my blog and click the Like button. Or search for "Lisa Myers Bulmash: mixed media artist" on FB and click Like there. I promise, no plans for world domination.

Yet.
