    Tyler Foote Finds: A Compendium of My Ignorance (click on image to enlarge)

    Tyler Foote Finds: A Compendium of My Ignorance, a two-year collaboration with my dog, Tyler Foote, documenting my inability to identify a single natural object from our walks (except the $1 bill), was conceived to be an ephemeral installation for the DANK Inaugural. Some of Tyler’s “finds” have already become kindling and compost.

    But friend and professional photographer, Jim Pyle, beautifully photographed it for me. And prints are now available as digital downloads, $50 each, via PayPal including credit cards.

    And, I’ve just discovered Framebridge, a brilliant new company that custom frames photographs and art for all-inclusive low rates from $79 – $149. 

    That means the stress-inducing, cost-prohibitive elements are FREE!

    • Shipping – both ways = free
    • Printing – all sizes = free
    • Matting – design experts are available for consultation = free
    • Hanging materials – even the nails are included = free

    Insane. Right?!  Take a look at their video….

     

     

    The Framebridge website is easy to navigate and lets you envision the dimensions…

    Tyler Foote Finds: A Compendium of My Ignorance, work in progress, by Moira McLaughlin

    The DANK Inaugural, the group show inspired by the theme of "water" that Tyler Foote and I have been working on, opens this Friday, July 11 in Nevada City, California, 5 – 9 pm. As a collective, the ten artists decided to share only fragments of our works until after the opening. So, here are some sneak peeks…

    The DANK Inaugural
    300 Spring Street
    Nevada City, CA 95959

    Opening Reception: July 11, 2014, 5 – 9 pm.

    DANK is an artists’ collective in Nevada City, California. It was founded in 2013 by ten artists interested in post-Great Recession social issues, the rural ideal, and an anti-urban aesthetic grounded in the legacy of the California Gold Rush.

    The name DANK comes from the wet wood smell that permeates Nevada City, a town situated on the banks of Deer Creek. It’s also a nod to one of the area’s premier exports, cannabis. And it’s an acronym for Do Art Now Kids.

    Members include: Celine Adrianna Negrete, Roseanne Burke, Sheila Cameron, Kathy Frey, Cynthia Levesque, Moira McLaughlin, Joe Meade, Nancy Nelson, Dylan Sherwood McConnell, Reinette Senum.

    Show runs until August 3, 2014.

    Dogs are welcome. In fact, I am working on a second piece, Precious, that invites dogs to interact with it, so dogs are encouraged.

    If you and your pup ever thought about visiting Nevada City, come this summer and see DANK.
