I was giving a demo on Chinese/Japanese brush painting at the gallery while the core group were exchanging ideas about a Name and a Logo for the gallery and the group of artists affiliated to it. So while working on the demo, I suggested this name and painted this logo. Shared it with them and while I was happily going about my business having fun with the demo, they started sending it out to over 400 artists and before we knew it, it found its way to facebook. Long story short, it got accepted, yay!
My thought process was to come up with something that shows the spectrum of artists and our work and the colors we use while showing that energy and talent embedded inside us and how it can sprout into a piece of art.
I for one, and I'm sure most artists feel proud to share that energy with the whole world.
