nothing's ever where you left it.

The show is basically all set up. Art hung. floor covered in stuff. The studio is mostly all clean and tidy. Wine is bought. Food is waiting to be picked up. The beer is lovely and warm on the counter (might want to fix that last one).
but in other news here are some photos of things from this week:

STUDIO BABY!

TWIT TWEET TW*T I feel dirty!

Today I logged onto the studio tw*tter account in order to tweet about the show this weekend (it was scary and strange and I do not approve at all). We have the crappest twitter presence in the world, we've had a twitter account for a full year now (since we moved into the new studio space)... and so far made seven whole posts (or tweets?).  
Twitter makes me feel dirty. I am responsible for one of the seven original posts and I think it was 5 words long and about glitter... we have less than 10 followers and were following ONE person... my boyfriend.
We are failures in the twitterverse... I'm actually ok with this, however as it seems to be a decent marketing tool, it's time I put away my aversion to the hashtag and tw*t along with everyone else.

So on top of blogging more studio-blogginess... I am also resolving to ...tweet... more.

Love, Dreams and Other Impossible Things


So it's been about 6 months since our last post, this is not because we were in a collective coma, or being held captive by the family of angry sparrows nesting in the rafters of the music studio, or even due to a bout of amnesia resulting from an alien encounter... Nope, we've just been busy. 

Julia and Robert now have a baby, his name is StudioBaby and he is our new mascot!...

Dexter (the stone crab) ate Jeremy (the blue crab) in a sort of Hannibal Lecteresque display of wits and morbid appetite...

The studio has been shuffled and reshuffled, walls have been built and they are awesome and their awesomeness ought to  basked in...

The Friday Morning drawing group has earned itself a nickname, no I will not tell you what it is. :)

And yes, we have acquired even more fishtanks! we are now YayStudio, Gallery AND Aquarium,  almost as impressive as the Georgia Aquarium but slightly smaller and considerably cheaper. 

The Revive Show was marvelous, thanks to everyone who came out and participated.

And now we are getting ready for our next show, Love, Dreams and Other Impossible Things, opening on September 17th at 7pm. The show features installations and photographic self portraits by Athens based emerging artist Fiona Nolan. Fiona's work is both playful and emotive as she converts the space to allow the viewer to literally step into her imagination.

We have sponsorship from The Beer Growler, Sweet-n-Sinful and Pine Street Market- So I'm excited, StudioBaby is excited! Dexter is looking forward to eating meeting new people. So its really in everyone's best interest to show up and enjoy themselves. 

Also, I promise to be better about the blog now that the coma inducing, alien sparrows from a few doors down have moved out and left us alone to blog in peace.
