How Girlie Are You?
January 29, 2008 This
& That
I
wasn't going to blog today. I almost chucked the
daily blogging routine because it's been a long day,
the wind is whipping something fierce outside my
window and I just want to curl up under a warm
blanket and go to sleep.
Seriously, I thought I was too tired to comment on the world today, but then I checked my e-mail. I got a message from a woman named Amy who is friends with one of the organizers of the "Girlie Show," a rockin' art show in Oklahoma City that promotes female artists and crafters.
Amy, how did you know I've been obsessing the last few days over my not-so-secret-dream to throw the biggest rockin' art show West Michigan has ever seen? Seriously, your timing is excellent.
So I clicked the link and was amused to see the classic pin-up girl graphics used to promote the show. There was a time when I probably would have been offended by the concept of using cartoon cleavage to promote art and craft (high school), but now I consider it clever marketing. (What do you think?)
Okay, so now that I feel like my art show-planning mojo has been restored (Well, at least until I've had the benefit of sleep and able to think clearly and wake up to the realization that I don't know the first thing about planning a successful art show.) I think you should check out the mini-documentary about the show and let me know if you're interested in hearing more from these ladies.
