Movies & Music, Pictures & Paintings

We had a terrific turn-out for our gathering last night. Several new faces and talents to share. Tracy showed a sampling of her photography. Jon brought a promo piece for his pop-art paintings on glass. Rob brought his guitar and joined our drummers to add not only another dimension thru his strumming, but sang some of his original songs.

As the musicians played, discussions filtered around the room. Metal artist talking with photographer. Penciler discussing movies with the film maker. Sculptor chatting with a musician.

Later into the meeting we had movie screenings from three different film makers -- Terence, Marquis and Sam. All 3 brought their DVDs for us to view and were open to questions and comments after each. It was cool to hear the feedback from the other artists.

As has been our theme throughout this group, our objective is to BE objective. We don't need to agree or understand another person's art -- but we DO need to respect the talents of everyone. Last night was a perfect example of how this group accepts and respects each other.

It was a great time of building relationships and getting to share our ideas and thoughts.

We'll be featuring some Artist Spotlights in the next few days. Check back to see our latest additions!
