First Friday Art Walk: Genevieve Flynn and Scarlett Garnet

This past weekend was busy for certain, but one of the highlights was February First Friday.  In spite of the bitter cold and freshly fallen snow, Matt and I decided to brave the elements to support a few friends with open studios.  Thanks to both Genevieve Flynn, and Garnet Baker for hosting us.  There's nothing I enjoy more than hanging with you girls and enjoying your lovely artwork!

Frog rings.  Now that's what I call jewelry. 

Lately this blog has become less about what I'm making and more about what I'm doing.  It's tough to strike a balance between all the different things I'm working on, but I'm loving every minute of it, including collaborating with some of the best talent in Kansas City.

Your City Thursday: Kansas City Art Scene

Kansas City has an amazing and ever growing art scene.  If you don't know by now (which you should) in the Crossroads District every First Friday of the month all the galleries are open their new shows and their doors to the public.  This First Friday some of my favorite artists and businesses are hosting events.  Here's whats happening:

 Genevieve Flynn Studios located at 1717 Oak is hosting a Valentines Day Event.  Bring your sweetie and check out the master metalsmiths work.

Scarlett Garnet is opening their new brick and mortar studio located at 504 E. 18th Street on the corner (right by Grinders).  Check out her new space, her lovely jewelry designs, and enjoy some free brew!

I'll be out and about with my trusty camera to capture all the action.  Hope to see you there!  Come get some culture, you know you want to.
