for Matt

We recently had this very cool artist hang a show at the library, Matt Wood.  His work is large, mainly black and white and some of it is a bit alarming.  But it's all fabulous.  Matt is also a compulsive journal maker - he left out reams of paper for patrons to interact with his art (although he invited them to write/color/draw in his journals, no one actually did - they all preferred a blank sheet to create on).  Matt is then going to create another piece of artwork from the doodles & drawings left by patrons (including my sister who was inspired to create her hammered flower piece) so I couldn't let the exhibit end without adding to the pile!  I used a press release I had sent out to the papers for his exhibit and included so words from the article, too.  I am going to miss the gigantic, bold pieces (I think next month's exhibit is bird photos....no comment).
