Look, art can feel intimidating.

But it really shouldn’t be. The power of art lies in convincing you it's smarter than it actually is. It is just paint on canvas stretched over some wood. Or pencil marks on paper. That's it. Its value comes in how it makes you feel… yes with more knowledge, the deeper your appreciation can be, but truly, if you like something that’s all it has to be.

No surprises.

Art shows shouldn't be places where anyone feels out of place. With this one, there are no surprises. You’ll know exactly how much each artwork costs because each one is $304 — not crazy expensive. I've made videos of every artist, so you'll get to know them before you ever walk through the door. They'll already be familiar faces, making it easier to feel welcome. You'll walk into the show already feeling like you belong. Because you do. Original art, created by some real artists. Offering work that usually sells for a lot more, for just $304.

No pretense.

Why am I doing this?

I'm trying to give back to a community that's given me so much. I've been fortunate enough to be paid for my creative ideas for over 20 years. Now, I'm bringing everything I'm good at—introducing a concept, connecting people, storytelling, and creating value—all that into this project.

Let's become a community known for

supporting its artists

by buying their work.

Thank you.

Love,
