Perstef aka Stephanie Booth
« on: October 11, 2010, 02:28:04 PM »
I've been meaning to post some new work here (though I find it hard enough to keep up my own website).  But I finally feel like I have something exciting enough to post.  I was selected as one of the finalist for Real Art DC.  Voting just started today so check it out: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/special/artsandliving/real_art_dc.html?sid=ST2010100804531

Also, I was interview by a reporter with Patch.com yesterday and it just went up today.  Check it out http://mountvernon.patch.com/articles/mount-vernon-high-school-art-teacher-named-a-finalist-in-washington-posts-real-art-dc-contest:

So I just re-designed my website and put a ton of new work from the MFA program up.  Let me know what you think!  www.perstef.com

Did anyone else miss out on opportunities because of the power outages?  I've got to stop procrastinating!

For those of you who remember, Jennifer, a fellow Artomatic artist posted a call for donations for this Silent Art auction a while back on the Artomatic boards.  I'm proud to say I'm going to have a print in that auction, but it's just a drop in the bucket, there's been a lot of amazing donations by a diverse group of artists!

It's going to be in Columbus Ohio on the 25th.  Even if you're going to be in D.C., please pass it along if you know anyone in the Columbus area.  100% of the proceeds are going to this young man's family.  I have all the details on my blog.

I'm starting to re-work some old work.  I like to call it "the remix."

New work.  Hot off the presses! It's a first draft so any feedback is welcome.

The semester is just about over which means I have time to actually update my website! All my new work is up there and I took some new images of some older work too (Artomatic didn't have the best lighting for documentation, go figure). Let me know what you think! www.perstef.com

Excellent.  I need to get my site updated at some point.  Time, what’s that!? :)

Thanks Jesse!  I ended up buying the template from themeforest.net and then editing the colors to work better for me.  My old site was just too hard to keep up.

I made my 2013 Art/Life Goals.  There's also a link to a great blog post in there.

So it's March and that means my solo MFA thesis show at Mason is almost here!  I can't believe it!  I hope to see some friendly ArtDC faces out in Fairfax.  The reception is March 27th from 7-9pm.  I'll post it in art openings as it gets a little closer, but here's the event on FaceBook, it should be open to the public.

Oh that’s wonderful!  Just around the corner.  Be sure to post again when it gets close.  You must tweet to us from the reception at www.twitter.com/artdc …  to give our readers an active experience to those who can’t make it!
