Week Eighteen: Sunday
A quick reminder to all students, not just my own. I mentioned at the start of the semester, that I would be hosting a Art Exhibition for student artist, close to the end of term. I've recently secured one of the dinning halls at the Lux Hotel for the event. It will be catered, and open to all to not only attend, but also participate. I've had several people sign up so far, but would love to have more people enter. As my students know, participation is an extra credit grade for them. All forms of art are welcomed.

I will once more be posting sign up sheets on the outside of my office, and classroom doors. Or if you like, come down to Gun Smoke Tattoo, talk to me, and I'll get your name down. Also, you'll have the option of selling your work in a silent auction. Though it's not required, we welcome those students selling art, to donate part of the price tag to charity.

It should be a swinging event, I hope all of the artist at Halcyon will participate, and that everyone will come down to enjoy the work, and support those creative minds among us.

	Haven't decided yet. I have a couple of places lined up, ready, and willing. Just have to pick one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Hopefully, you’re finding options more creative than the quintessential fruit and cheese tower.

Well, it’s early but the chanterelles seem to arrive early here (wherever here is) so anybody offering mushrooms is a sign of good, local stock. Crayfish and hare tasted quite good lately. Grouse, too. I don’t know who they’re fooling with that braised fennel nonsense.

How good of a tea list are they offering you?

	Um yeah, my girlfriend is the chef, she'd kill me if I went for something cheap like that. Yeah... no idea what you're talking about, but cool. I'm more interested in the wine list. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You have good taste. (And could you get me her pancake batter recipe?) …yes, I get that a lot. Local vintages perchance? Either way, back to the meat of the matter: are collaborations allowed? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ha, thanks. Er, that would probably be something you'd need to take up with her. I'm sure that will be offered. You can't have an art opening, with shitty wine. It just wouldn't be right. They are. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Something is only boring, if you allow it to be. Here's the thing about art openings, if you want to have a good time... drink a lot of wine, and hang around the artist. They are crazy people. It's the buyers with the thick wallets that make things awkward. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mmm as tempting as that is, I'm going to pass. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Okay, you could probably make some cash on your stuff, since it's good. But if you're too cool for school. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ha, like I'm going to believe that. I'd rather not embarrass myself in front of the masses, thanks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh yes, Kat, you suck. Go crawl under a rock, and hide. I'm rolling my eyes at you. Doll, do I seem like the type of person to give false compliments? If you sucked, I would say so. Now, shut up, and stop dogging yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sorry, but as the donor of the second half of my DNA, I just can't trust your opinion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tattooed_skin 2008-10-01 03:50 pm UTC (link)
	Well, if you want another opinion, display it at the show, and see how people react. If I know about anything, it's art. The fact that you're my kid should be proof enough that you've got talent. Yes, I'm tooting my own horn with that as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So say my work is good, then you get to go around feeling all special cause you passed something good on? Not a big selling point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tattooed_skin 2008-10-01 03:56 pm UTC (link)
	No, that's not what I was getting at. More of a case of knowing that I'm good, and not doubting myself. I think you should do the same. You're good, know it, and own it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know that I excel at being a bitch. Does that count? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tattooed_skin 2008-10-01 04:05 pm UTC (link)
	Actually, I do think that's a talent. Is it one you make money from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm working on a plan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tattooed_skin 2008-10-01 04:15 pm UTC (link)
	Well, until you're plan goes into effect, you should sell your art. Just an option. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	castledown 2008-10-01 04:22 pm UTC (link)
	I'll consider it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
