Last night was the first of the spring 2012
Insight? Outta Site!lecture series at Zeitgeist, and a pretty sizeable turnout showed up to hear what artist and blogger Sharon Butler (
Two Coats of Paint) had to say. It's a potluck, which is kind of fun — whoever brought the roasted pecans with rosemary was a genius. It was also meant to be interactive, but when organizer Adrienne Outlaw began by saying that she's a firm believer that there are no stupid questions, I was worried. Like everybody, I've been to plenty of talks where I've noticed that people who like to talk over everyone else are often kind of intolerable. But this was a painters' discussion, and it seemed like people where there with real concerns looking for practical advice, not just to hear themselves talk.
