We Should Know Each Other

​We Should Know Each Other made for a fun afternoon. Thank you to Erin and Eleanor for helping our visitors make buttons and beaded necklaces. I enjoyed taking some photos of the event, but more specifically how the former school is being transformed into an arts incubator space.

​UPPERCASE shared classroom 309 with Gary McMillan, or rather "Maestro McMillan, Ouija Self-Portrait Mediator" aka painter with a very long paintbrush. (Or "finglonginator" if I may use a Futurama reference...)

​The notion was that Glen, seated, would subconsciously guide Maestro Gary during this portrait session.

​Glen kept his eyes closed throughout the session.

​The resulting painting had a likeness of Glen, except for the angry eyebrows.

​Paint spatter and dribbles are part of the process.

Though UPPERCASE won't be participating tomorrow, WSKEO is still in full swing on Sunday, so please check out the event at the old King Edward school.​ Calgary is hoping with activities this weekend, so my family and I will be enjoying Heritage Park's Train Days tomorrow.
