What's in a logo?


Spray painted this red square in the white space left between Frank's canvases and his paints. The site's address came to mind for blue and voila a possible logo. Your thoughts?

Screenprinting, Part I



I've finally completed the frame (after two trips to the hardware store). Screen, screws, hinges and all. Now I'm on to burn my first screen. Any advice would be appreciated -- including what to print first.

Seven Days Later





I've been able to make some progress over the last few days. I've met a possible candidate that could share the space. I'll know more tomorrow.

In the mean time here are the first set of photos. It's a clean slate, nothing more.

It's Official

The space is mine. Frank is out. I am in (sort of).

I brought a few boxes over this evening before having to get my daughter. Nothing major: some posters, a stereo, cleaning stuff, and silkscreen materials. I'm excited, anxious, and nervous, but mostly I fear not being able to live up to my own expectations and standards.

The space is a beautiful 1,000 sq ft commerical loft. White concrete walls, high ceiling, gallery lights, loft overhang, the works...

I'll use this blog to post updates on any progress or experiments I make over the course of my stay at five twelve.
