Philadephia Museum pics

More photos from our trip in Philadelphia. These are from the Philadelphia Museum of Art. We had a great time and saw lots of great work. The photos are low quality, because it was dark in the museum and we weren't using our awesome camera. Enjoy!

Day 2 in Philly!!! Lauren Adams: Recent Works at the Slingluff Gallery!

Lauren's show, Lauren Adams: Recent Works is amazing! I couldn't be more proud of her! The Slingluff Gallery is a great space and the owners are awesome. The audience at the reception was incredibly receptive and interested in the work. We had a great time! Here's some pics of the show.



Day 1.5 in Philly!!!

This past weekend, my wife Lauren and I traveled to Philadelphia for her solo show Lauren Adams: Recent Works at the Slingluff Gallery. We had a great time and the show looks amazing. The Slingluff Gallery owners couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming. Here's some pics of our adventures. I will post pics from the Philadelphia Museum soon. Enjoy!
