Crazy summer '09

I haven't left the city but I've been "away" this summer on a wonderful experience of a lifetime. Getting picked as one of the 12 artists for the new reality ART show "Work of Genius" was something I never expected or saw for myself. With the show taping behind us, I eagerly await October 4th when the show will air on FOX and I will be part of a new breakthrough idea; a reality show with no negativity, no stupidity, no elimination, just positive energy and art, art, art. We "competed" but really, we made friends with each other, a group of artists from Miami, NYC and L.A. and collaborated on everything from murals to product designs and specific challenges. It has not sunk in yet that my art will reach viewers all over the world...But isn't that the point of art? To share it a million times over? I'm excited for my studio and for what this will bring to my students, how it will inspire others to realize art is for everyone and not just for high-priced galleries, how it will get people to get over it and just paint. I can't wait!!!
