WAM minutes 3/2/10

hey ladies,
Here are my minutes from our meeting at Quetzal on Tuesday, March 2. Feel free to add or edit since my attention in recording minutes was somewhat diverted by my delicious hot cocoa.


Website
Stella shared her work on the websites. Looks spiffy!
Everyone needs to send their bio photo to Stella so she can include them with our artist statements

Self Portrait: A Series of Reflections

The next WAM-riffic show is almost upon us!
We discussed using the Narcissus theme, based on the myth of the youth who falls in love with his own reflection.
Juniper's upcoming photoshoot will include flowers and mirrors.

Minerva finalized the show dates:
Wednesday, March 10: Hang the show any. We agreed to meet around 5:30 pm
Thursday, March 11: Opening 4 - 8 pm, Flannery till 6, Marina, Crystal
Thursday, March 25: Closing 4 - 8 pm, Flannery till 6, Stella, Juniper
Thursday, April 1: Take down anytime between 12 - 7pm (New show being hung on Tuesday the 6th, so our work needs to be down by then.)

Stella created a flyer for show which can be included with our advertising.

Decor

We're planning to decorate with Narcissus (white) flowers and mirrors.
Stella and Flannery will try to make some paper white flowers to add to the decor
Marina, Crystal will be going mirror hunting before the show. Thriftstores, Ross, and the big White Elephant Sale this weekend could be good mirror sources.

Pocket Mirrors in the works, just not for this show
myfavoritemiror.com offers design-your-own pocket mirrors for $4 ea + shipping if we order 25+
We discussed the image of a text spiral which would include our affirmations as drawn from Juniper's herbal tarot:
"I flow with the rhythm of Life.
Lovingly I give and lovingly I receive the gifts of our friendship.
By being in tune with Mother Earth, I strengthen and heal myself.
As the serpent sheds its skin, I renew myself within.
I am open to the abundance that my labor and talents provide."

Flannery will design and send out a draft.

Superheroes: Juniper will check with Leif about those pieces still hanging at Mission Comics.

Homework: What inspires you? photos? experiences? stories?
