Scenes from a Art Opening...

Here are a few of my favorite shots from last weekends New Bohemia Signs/Jeff Canham & Steve Powers art show at the Guerrero Gallery in San Francisco. It was definitely an amazing event and I was very happy such a huge crowd came out to see it. A I am glad to report that a lovely time was had by all and I feel super proud to be part of it.  Take a look...

New Bohemia Signs at the Guerrero Gallery

Here's a bit of a sneak peek...signs reflecting in gold leaf

I just wanted to tell you about the upcoming gallery show coming up this Saturday. My husband Damon and his fellow sign shop artists are having a art show at the Guerrero Gallery in San Francisco's Mission District.  They have been working so hard and creating such incredible artwork. If you don't already know, I've started  working at the shop this month.   This has given me a kind of exclusive access to all these artists their preparation to this show. It has been pretty damn inspiring. And I must say, I've been blow away by what they have all created.

So...If you are in San Francisco, come out and see the show. It will be amazing.

Here's the show flyer...

The show is not only featuring New Bohemia Signs but also Jeff Canham and Steve Powers...

New Bohemia Signs Art Show....

Hey Everybody...I just wanted to tell you about an amazing happening this Thursday in San Francisco. My husband's sign shop, New Bohemia Signs, is having an art show! If you can't make it, I promise to take lots of pictures and post them here ASAP!

Here is the postcard for the show...

Hope to see you there!

just a little something...

I was so excited to see this. My husband's shop is mentioned in the Chronicle Books blog. One of my dreams would be to be connected to Chronicle Books in some way.  I'll take this for now...1 degree of separation. Does that count?

FontShop...New Bohemia Signs (Damon Styer)

Once again my husband amazes me! He got interviewed last month by the FontShop. It just came out today. Here is the video!

A few photos from the New Bohemia Signs Art Showshow

Last Friday night I had the pleasure of  attending my hubby's art show at Adobe Books in the Mission in San Francisco. There was a huge turnout and I was so happy for him and all the other artists/sign painters in the show.  Here is a peek at the craziness:
