The Title Fight!

The show looked amazing! Thank you to everyone that came by and ate cupcakes and drank cheap wine.  But for the millions of or devoted art followers on the other side of the pond (or world, or country, or wherever you may be that prevented you from to coming to the exhibition of the century) here are some pictures of what you missed...











And as it turned out Friday morning there was also a Benefit for Red Cross Japan where a bunch of local bakers donated wonderful confectionaries and all the funds from sales went to The Red Cross's efforts in Japan, http://cakesforjapan.wordpress.com/.  We heard about it the day before and counted on being there at 11 am to buy a bunch of yummy things to have for snacks at the opening.  And at 11 am, it was packed. From what we heard by 2 pm they had sold out of everything.  Which made everyone who made it to the show extra lucky, because not only did they get to see amazing art, but they also had there pick of these!


And then the people started to come, and as the night went on Kelly and I were enjoying ourself and the gallery got crowded, and it was fantastic.  For a little pop-up show with only a couple weeks to promote it, a lot of people cam by, thanks guys!  So here's your moment of fame:


And there were more...but I was too busy being social to remember to take pictures. I was proud of myself for taking this one (and one very blurry one later in the evening).

And then we all went out for Vietnamese and it was delicious and then we all just sat back and basked in our glowing artstardom! Well, except for me who had to go home early due to an allergic reaction to my dinner (I'm allergic to soy) so I just slowly nodded off to a slightly drug dimmed artstar glow.  But I will admit, this show went so well, and looked so good, I may just have to challenge Kelly to a rematch...you hear that Kelly McCallum? Rematch! New York vs. London!
