Davin Risk, Craig Marshall, and I are going to be projecting artwork onto the wall at the corner of Queen Street West and Noble Street on the night of Nuit Blanche, this Saturday September 29 beginning once the sky is dark and continuing into the wee hours.

Keri wrote an excellent piece on perfection and the energy that is wasted perpetuating the lie. And while I'm at it I have got to mention Keri's two new books... a plug that is LONG overdue. Both Davin and I love Wreck This Journal and bought four copies as soon as it came out for ourselves and as gifts for people we thought might enjoy it. I am still working through the activities in fits and spurts. It's been a good excuse to get the watercolours out and try out those fancy watercolour pencils Davin bought a while back. Come to think of it we really need to reinstate Arts & Crafts Night now that the Summer is coming to an end.
Keri's second book this summer is The Guerilla Art Kit and is filled with activities to get you thinking about making art to put out into the world -- art that will be found and experienced randomly and without the sense of permanence and validation often attributed to showing in a gallery setting.
