This is new

The gallery’s grand opening and wine reception is a week from tomorrow. Today I returned to Greenville from a five-day family vacation extravaganza in Myrtle Beach. The kids had a blast; we relaxed, we swam, we lounged in the sun. It was lovely. And for the first time (ever) I drove the four hours home with a sense of excitement to be coming home, rather than one of dread.

You know that post-holiday nadir that hits as real-world reality creeps back in? I know the feeling well. So it’s a new thing, having this absence of let-down. I think that this is how life should be.

Monday will be yet another exciting morning at the gallery, with new work arriving from our growing, amazing list of artists. I’ve been working on updating the artist page of the website (ha), so there should be some significant changes there by tomorrow.

We’re expecting a great turnout on Saturday. Please come on by — have a glass of wine, meet some of the artists, chat with me, tour the space. I’m both humbled and grateful for the support I’ve received, and this is only the beginning of a very cool, insanely rewarding project; I hope you’ll stick around for the ride.

Yep, that's about right.
