We ought to be in pictures

And we are! We've been so lucky with good press the last few days. Our major newspaper, the Idaho Statesman wrote an article about our auction and included a photo of the print by Kam Kelley of Boise.
And, they called Wingtip Press one of the coolest places in downtown Boise.  And if that wasn't enough, we got the cover of the Boise Weekly today. The Weekly is our Arts magazine and they feature local artist's work on the cover each week.  They had a hard time just picking one and ended up with a composite of 8 prints.  Here it is! And congratulations to Meredith Buschow of Texas, Mary Donato of Boise, Idaho, Sandy Craig of Wales, Jennifer Mecham of Carey, Idaho, Alex Wonder of Boise, Idaho, Beth Layton of Boise, Idaho, Lisa Flowers Ross of Boise, Idaho and Kyoko Imazu of Australia!

You make us look good!

Five Years!

It was the day after Thanksgiving in 2009 when we were cleaning out the flatfiles, finding all those remnants of beautiful paper when the idea and title for Leftovers came to mind. The day after Thanksgiving is pretty much always about the leftovers.  In fact, NPR did two stories today about what to do with all those luscious tidbits and morsels from the traditional Thanksgiving feast. So, it seems appropriate that  today, Black Friday - the day invented by retailers to seduce consumers to their stores with "this day only" discounts - we decided to get out of the studio (and kitchen) and head downtown to Macy's. But not for Black Friday shopping. Oh no.  We gathered a crew of local leftover printmakers together for installing the exhibition set of Leftovers IV in the Macy's windows so all those Black Friday shoppers can see what's up at Wingtip Press. We're hoping they'll be enticed to stop by next week to participate in our Silent Auction for Hunger Relief.

Food

Found this image from a blogpost a few years back and it seems so appropriate to share, especially for all of us US of A Leftover Lovers as we move into what's known as our Thanksgiving four day week-end.  We're all busy buying the groceries and pulling out the old family recipes with the relic "scratch and sniff" spatters of batter or oil or fingerprints stuck to them, hoping that we can re-create a splendid memory of family and thankfulness while our electronic devices are summoning, and the onceinalifetime Black Friday deals or TGIThanksgiving sales beckon.

So this simple poster or WWII propaganda reminds of what consumerism COULD be all about.



They had the right idea back then.

Auction Time

We'll be warming up the Leftovers soon to benefit the Hunger Relief Task Force.  And, we'll be announcing the call for Leftovers V in early December.
