None other than the Flowerman himself dropped this piece on our desk and demanded that we feature it, or else. This gem is a hand made wedding invitation by (and for) Renia Okawa. Okawa has been featured in two of the shows at the Ipso gallery. Most recently she had 5 printing/drawing pieces in "Switchboard", that opened last Friday. She has a great mix of her drawing style with the textures of printing.

Great stuff Reina, hope you don't mind us showing you off. Send your work to andrew@pickfresh.com or kiel@pickfresh.com and see it here on GC

New week, new banner. Short week, short banner? Anyway, no one really know what will present itself here on GC. We like to keep it organic, you kno? Just let it happen. Feel the design and illustration, let it come through you. And then send it to andrew@pickfresh.com or kiel@pickfresh.com and see it featured here.

Stay sane out there, maybe send up a hand turkey?

Two posts in one day? oh my luck you gawker.

Now an invitation:

Dear readers, on behalf of GC I do formally invite you to an Art Gallery opening at the Ipso gallery at Fresh Produce. 6th and Main. Suite 100, from 6pm to 9pm tonight.

The opening features new works by Liz Bashore Heeren, Kristen Ericsson, Diana Behl, Reina Okawa and Michael hook. I have been lucky enough to hang and stare at these piece and there is truly some beautiful work. It is really inspiring, so be hear and take note. All artists should be present, so you will also be able to pick at their brains (metaphorically). Be here at FP headquarters in a few hours.

See you at the show.

Photographic Content just had to make a cameo. Corey Vilhauer sent his electronic grab-bag of goodies from DTSF at Rug and Relic. Vilhauer killed during the last PhotoGraphic Content and when posed with the proposition of DrawnTown he "snapped" to. His medium of choice: Megabytes and Megapixels. Here are some great shots of the Sixth edition of DrawnTown.

Lastly, as has become trend and tradition, The GC desks' star of PTSF assumes the final spot in our post.

The colors of the woods and the rust. The strong diagonals. Im actually drooling. Great stuff Mr. Vilhauer. Marvelous. We can only hope that DTSF can use your mad skills to document the festivities repeatedly. Until the end of time.

Will Photographic Content ever return? One may never know. But one can have an impact on the decision. Send your stuff to andrew@pickfresh.com or kiel@pickfresh.com and see it here.

stay sane out there
