good ink

As some of you know, I am an active member of the Pittsburgh Society of Illustrators. Every now and again we put together a directory of illustration to send out to prospective Art Directors and pretty much anyone else who may commission illustration. This year we decided to spice it up a little and make it a recipe book! A drink recipe book to be exact. It turned out really nice and there are some great illustrations in there along with some tasty drinks, some call for alcohol and some are simple every day things that anyone can enjoy.

In addition to our nice directory, we are exhibiting the original artwork (and many of us selling it as well) at GalleriE CHIZ. We are also selling copies of the recipe book there for $5.

Ok, enough of the plug for our book.
It's cool, the exhibit and gallery are cool, and there was a wonderful article about it in this Sunday's Tribune Review. It was written by art critic, Kurt Shaw; and I have to say I am flattered that he highlighted my piece in his article. He talks about a bunch of other artists and their work, so check out the link when you get the chance. :o)
