Typo Friday #14: Everyone I Know Should Be Famous
The building that houses my studio also has a mural-only space in the entryway called the Ephemeral Gallery. A different artist comes in each month to paint a mural on this 15 by 8 foot wall space, and at the end of each month, it gets whitewashed. I got asked to do it for February, and finished it all in about 7 hours yesterday.
The phrase came from a conversation I had with a friend last week. We were discussing how many friends we both had who are artists, craftspeople, small business owners, and how we really try to support them when we can and that we sincerely wished that everyone we knew could be famous for what it is they do. That sentiment seemed appropriate for a building full of creative offices.

If you happen to be in Portland, it will be up the rest of the month at 412 NW Couch St. It’s right by the entryway doors, so you can even see it well at night if you come by and the doors are locked.
Progress shots and whatnot are up on my Flickr.
i was in the goldsmith building last week and i saw your mural! i didn’t know it was yours! i should have :) love it, i’m sad that it will go away.
