One year ago, the Monday after Fall ArtWalk we announced the news we kept secret for months… we were moving to Prince Street!!! We have felt the love and support for the decision every single day since. Seven and a half months ago we re-opened here on 111 N Prince, and it feels good.

Walk back with us through some of the first images we shared and just one of the renderings Matt created as we poured over our floor plan.

Thank you for being on this journey with us, whether you met us seven years ago or last week, we are grateful to be here!

One way to tone your drawing surface is with graphite powder. Check out this video as Matt demonstrates how a little bit goes a long way! Use an eraser to carve your mid-tones and highlights, build on top of the surface to push your dark values and add water to create a soft wash. We love a versatile material and the ArtGraf Graphite Powder pouch is a good one.

Coming to the gallery in November & December, Life Studied: Drawings by Mairin-Taj Caya and Mike Hawthorne

Inspired by their podcast of the same name, this exhibition at its core is about how a regular drawing practice strengthens the foundation on which future artworks can be built. Sketches shown alongside finished drawings reinforce the importance of observation and iteration. It speaks to the idea that not every drawing made needs to be something more. A sketch can exist as a sketch, and it doesn’t need to be "complete" to be useful.

The act of drawing also makes room in our lives for other considerations to happen simultaneously. It's an action that requires us to slow down, take time for ourselves, and connect with something physical.

Stay tuned for a preview of installation the first week of November ahead of the opening reception on First Friday 11/6!
