Over the past three years a number of us have gathered periodically to draw.
At kitchen tables, in basement studios, on countertops, floors, porches, stray napkins at the bar, and elsewhere.
‘Partiers’ have included: John Bylander, Allyson Mellberg, Max Fenton, Patrick Costello, Jeremy Taylor, Johanna Drucker, Kristin Adolfson, Dave Moore, Greg Antrim Kelly, James Ford, Erik Carter, Sarah Lawson, Eliza Evans, and many (many) more
Hundreds of collaborative and unsigned works have been produced, collected and until now rested quietly in the plaid flanked shadows of a suitcase. (Nod to The Royal Art Lodge)
