    • 10 Months and a Shift in Perspective

      Posted at 6:07 pm by jan, on October 7, 2014

      This week’s entry is a little different and a suggestion by my dear friend and mother. October marks 10 months into the Betty project and October 3rd ARC Gallery opened a show where Betty and I are exhibiting a collective of this past year’s experiences.

      What I didn’t know when I began this project is how much fun I would have, how much I would learn about the city and those who live here, and best of all how liberating it would be to challenge my inhibitions as they slowing fade away.

      So without any reservation, Betty and I invite you to get out there and SHOW ME WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW!!!!
