Well tomorrow is the day!
Over a year of research and work is finally culminating in one night of art. So everyone that is interested should come to the Visual Studies Workshop from 6pm-9pm for the opening presentation of my thesis show “Catalogue”
Everyone is welcome, it should prove to be a fun night. Hope to see you there.
Well this is the week.
This Friday the 30th is the opening reception for my show at the Visual Studies Workshop. I’m 60% installed, so far everything works. BTW never, NEVER buy brass wood screws from your local home hardware depot store. I purchased 2″ brass screws to attache the tops of my podiums to the stands and all of them stripped or bent. Support your local hardware store, they probably have better quality stuff.
Any how, it’s all looking good, I hope to see lots of folks there enjoying the art and the free munchies.
Well I can almost smell the opening of my thesis show. I’m hoping that all goes well and perhapse more folks check out my other photography. With a little wishful thinking I’v started to add a section to my portfolio website where I can sell prints. I’m guessing that I’ll still sell more in the galleries but I can hope.
If you ar einterested in a print be sure to keep an eye on my portfolio site www.michaelleonardphoto.com
OK folks, I haven’t made one of these posts since the “re-birth” of my blog, but this is a big one.
As you have noticed in my last post, my thesis books are in bound and all. But last night I found an issue, some of the spine reinforcement was not strong enough and it broke. Very sad… So I called Marc my rep at Book1 and told him the bad news. Without any hesitation or second guessing he immediately offered to find a solution and rebind all of the books, and have the job done ASAP.
Some of you may be thinking “Dams Straight! He should” And you are exactly right. But more and more often today businesses are just happy to have you out the door. So because of that mentality shift I feel it’s important to laud the people that do the right thing the first time.
So that in mind, I am labeling Marc at Book1 in rochester as one of the “People that Rock!” And rightfully so Book1 also shares that distinction. Marc at Book1 has certainly won over my businesses for a very very long time, and they should get your business as well. So if you need a book binder check out www.book1one.com
Very cool people, top notch product and they do really care that the final product be 100% what it should be.
Besides their whole place smells like new books, how cool is that!
Well all the binding on my thesis books is done and they look beautiful. I’ll post some images later on.
I just got the call (well email actually.) The books are printed and on their way to the bindery. One more part of the thesis done.
Well OK so it’s not a hole in the roof, but it will be a hole in the wall…
A little preview of some thesis materials. Enjoy!
Well one more mile stone was passed yesterday. With the help of my friends Dave and Rona we erected a wall section that I need for my thesis presentation. Not the hardest work in the world but it would have been a lot harder had they not been there. So in the unfortunate vernacular of my generation, “Mad props to my peeps!”
Well things continue to roll forward on the thesis front. The book is being printed. The bindary is all set. And the more mysterious elements are almost done. Don’t get me wrong, there is still a ton to do, but totally doable over the next few weeks. So mark your calendars, April 30 6pm at the Visual Studies Workshop Rochester NY, come one come all.
