WAR-MEN-HO-VEN (art)


David Warmenhoven, artist, cow lover. I just added a link to his site on the right. Check out his ramblings and work. His collages and paintings can be found in Sanctuary Folk Art on Division. You'll want to see the bold and energetic cow paintings in person. (and for those non-cow lovers, he has a ton of work that doesn't contain cows)

My Hero!

Coat of Many Colors saves the day! Two days before moving out of Tanglefoot, I met Matt. His shop contains sweet clothing, records, antiques, and now: Teal Tree furniture and art. So if you missed the events, or had your eye on something special, check out Coat of Many Colors. Here is Matt and his pooch in front of the store. Stop by and say hi!

Lease Termination - not my favorite words


Tanglefoot is no longer the home of Teal Tree. My activities have been taken back into the basement and onto the kitchen table. The studio space on Straight St. was brilliant for our first two events and thanks to everyone who found the building and braved the elevator or stairs!
Ahhhh . . . memories . . . .

Music is Art

Ground Zero, April 28th. A music centered event, with paintings and furniture lending to the "art warehouse" vibe. Four bands and 3 Djs kept the energy high and people dancing. Thanks to the promotion of Josh A, it would be an understatement to say there were a "few" people who enjoyed Teal Tree's second official event. These picutres are from Nicholas' sound check and Wyatt Hood's performance. Thanks to all involved.

Poplicious, individual pieces



The first event Teal Tree in March contained the pieces shown here, and much more. They were fixed (thanks Dad and Lauren!) and refurbished with paint and new hardware. I'm going to compile some more images of the furniture and the event itself; until then take a look at these shots and imagine the shine of spotlights, chill music, flowers, and people ooohh-in and ahhhh-ing!
