This weekend was another amazingly successful LIVE on the Plaza. For the second month in a row, the LIVE event has been completely packed with people. The weather was perfect, and the scene was absolutely amazing. Second Friday in the Plaza is quickly solidifying itself as a must do event of the month. LIVE is quite literally living up to its namesake as the atmosphere was buzzing with energy. Alesa Clymer's art was a great success and we had hot art and hot dogs in the backyard provided by Tanner Frady! Hector Lopez even swung by to do some caricatures on the spot just for fun!

Empire Slice had a DJ on the roof debuting their beautiful new patio space and serving Coop by the kegload. Salvage room was hosting our friend, Ross Adam's photography/prints and DNA Galleries had art by Dustin Oswald of Bombs Away Clothing. All and all, a really wonderful LIVE event, and if you haven't been to LIVE on the Plaza yet, it is definitely something you need to bring all your friends and family out to next month!

Tomorrow is our second LIVE on the Plaza at our new space! The first LIVE was our grand opening, and now that we're officially in the space, we're excited to host our friend, Alesa Clymer, as the guest artist for this month. Screen printing art posters is one of our huge passions at Tree & Leaf. We love collaborating with local artists and using the timeless traidition of screen printing to replicate a piece of their work. When printing, it's hard to tell if the product is going to look good until the final color layer is laid on top of the image. I was really nervous with printing Alesa's work because it is so beautiful and so extremely detailed. When the final outline layer was added, my stresses were relieved! This is definitely the most detailed print we've created, and we are extremely proud to host Alesa and her wonderful works at our store tomorrow!

The show will begin at 7:00pm and last until 11:ish. We'll have her works, some drinks, and some fun festivities happening in our backyard. I'm going to set up an 8x8 panel for live art and we'll grill some hot dogs! Come out for a beautiful evening on the Plaza, and make sure to grab one of Alesa's prints. The edition is of only 25, so get 'em while they're hot!

Friday night at LIVE on the Plaza we'll be hosting our first artist in our new space! We are super excited to be in the district, and Alesa's beautiful and whimsical art is the perfect fit for our shop. Alesa paints amazing images of cartoonishly realistic characters in vivid actions; sometimes she even adds additions to her canvases that allow the subjects to flow outside of the ususal canvas area. Oddly enough, I first talked to Alesa about being one of our poster print artists at her last art show at the old DNA Galleries, which is now the new Tree & Leaf!

The poster that Alesa will be releasing is an awesome 3 color 12.5x19 poster titled, "Good Morning Grizzly." This is one of our limited posters that I'm sure will sell quickly, so make sure to grab one while you can! We'll also be doing a little bit of live painting, hot dogging, and beer drinking in the back yard so make sure to walk through the shop to hang out! See you Friday!

Nothing breaks my heart more than when we have to postpone Drink & Draw. It's a catch 22 in this situation, I mean I am getting married and everything, but postponing Drink & Draw while I'm gone was almost a deal breaker (just kidding). It will just be postponed for two weeks, but here's a calendar just in case you forget. Thanks for your patience! We'll see you on June 13th!!
