Well, I did it…my first solo exhibition! Friends and family can no longer nag me and say “when are you gonna show your work Jonny?!”. Well guys, here ya go. Accomplishing this personally set goal, and doing it before I turn 30 (amusingly, exactly 1 day before) means so much to me. The day I landed this opportunity, my mind has been spinning, and my life is now a balancing act between my 9-5 job and setting up this show. One problem though; many of the paintings I proposed to the gallery owner weren’t finished yet, and two of the paintings were determined to be inappropriate (containing trace amounts of nudity) for the corporate office building setting. I knew the instant I walked out of that gallery meeting I would have to paint one more (4×4 ft) painting. With a deadline of only 3 weeks, and in order to fill the space properly, I began painting faster and harder than ever before.

The best all-around player at Longo’s was “Boomtown” White, a tall, lean black man with a pencil-thin mustache. “Boomie” was sales online viagra quiet, laidback, cool. Sexual dysfunction is not something that is new, and it has existed for decades. levitra wholesale What if you cannot satisfy her in bed?

Men will be able to gain an erection is due to nerve damage, and canadian pharmacy tadalafil in this case pills will not solve the problem. The pure excitement of having my first solo show in my company’s building only lasted 1 night; the next day I went to work. I’ve been painting over 40 hours a week these last 2 weeks. And, to make things worse, my grandmother passed away last week. Mentally, I’m alright. I wasn’t extremely close with my grandmother because I lived far away for many years, and she was suffering so I know she’s in a better place now. I took time off work and went home for the funeral, and was a pallbearer for the first time in my life. To say stress hasn’t been apart of my life these last few weeks would be a huge misstatement. I am taking it all in stride, and trying not to over think things.

There is still a lot to be done…new business cards, updates to my website, determine prices, and possibly produce some prints. But, I still have one final day to paint. With the installation date set at next Sunday, and the time required for oil paint to dry, this is it…so I’m gonna get to it now. However, I’ll soon post more images of the paintings that will be in the show (along with the ones that won’t) as well as a brief synopsis of the show’s theme.
