We are not slave drivers at twbe, or work-a-holics. We are taking the long weekend off, so enjoy the food and fireworks. Here’s a little photo I had taken a 4th’s ago… and a little video

San Francisco-based artist Michelle Blade has started a new online project entitled Eternal Summer, which is a continuation of last year’s 100 Days of Summer project. Each day, Michelle will be posting evidence of a project she has worked on over the course of that day. Posts thus far have included her playing the banjo for 5 minutes, collages, photos and drawings. She hopes to make the summer last forever.

Michelle’s solo show The Elliptical Good-Kind opens at Jack Hanley’s 389 Valencia space in San Francisco on July 5. She will be exhibiting large-scale paintings on Dura-lar.

Check out the Eterrnal Summer Project.

Happy Fourth of July weekend! Enjoy.
