List

I am getting ready for a solo show in Copenhagen, Denmark, though I'm not going to release all the details just yet, here is something that might interest my readers. This is my to do list, it gives you a good idea of how much work it takes to put on a show, and most of these items go beyond just creating the works.

PLEASE NOTE: I will also be looking for volunteers to help me with prep for the show, so if your up for it, and live in the Copenhagen area, feel free to contact me at bascofive@gmail.com with the title Volunteer and I'll be sure to put you to work on something:) I'll probably post of more in depth Volunteer Request in the near future.

Cheers

Sneak Peak

Have some projects coming up in the coming months and one that I'm especially excited about. So if you live in Copenhagen, your in for a treat. More info coming down the road:)

2010

Well my scanner is down, and my camera batteries are dead so I haven't been the big visual updater. 2010 is here, a new year, with new goals and hopes for my artistic future. November and December saw some hard personal times, but I'm slowly bouncing back from that. Need to find a balance with taking care of myself and still doing the art work. I tend to go full steam sometimes and then run out of energy. I also sometimes say yes to to much.....sometimes it good to not accept every project that is thrown my way.

hummmmm....but what does 2010 hold?

Well I'm going to work more on getting art shows and concentrating on doing more gallery friendly works. The last 3 years have seen me just getting use to the Danish art scene, and I'm just barely started scratching the surface. I have had a fair bit of good press (thanks mostly to street art) but it takes show's to pay the dues. I think if I'm able to complete solo shows it will open some doors that I've been knocking for a while.

much to think about:)
