"Seeing the Light"




"Seeing the Light" featured works from Jeremiah Chang and David Armistead. Jeremiah Chang's work incorporates light, sculpture, shadows and furniture to create installation art. David Armistead exhibits colorful abstract paintings which consist of morse code, and a collection of minimal line drawings on paper. We welcome both artists to 75 Mixed Medium as we hosted "SEEING THE LiGHT" during the Castleberry Hill Gallery Tour Friday April 27th, 2007. Their works created a buzz and is one of our most talked about shows in Atlanta.

Hammer Time

The challenges are a constant battle in life.. I have learn to roll with the punches to prevent from bruising, but having a hard head helps. I've taken a hammer to the head and I would not recommend . it. The transition from becoming an artist to gallery owner is similar to taking that hammer to the head. A big wake up call. To most people that hammer would knock you out but if your like me you would just scream like a little bitch (age 7) and learn to move the next time someone tosses a hammer in the air.

Hello world

Hello World and welcome to 75 Mixed Medium Art Gallery . I am Michael Jones your blog host and Gallery Director of 75 Mixed Medium. I opened the gallery in November of 2006. Its April 2007 and the buzz is increasing. This is my first blog so it may take a while to get the grasp on things but things will get better as time permits. Life is a test and so is this first blog . Its funny how things relate.

We at 75 mm would like to thank all those that came down on Sat. April 7Th to enjoy the cold weather and take part in the Mark of the Feast "Triple 7" There were lots of beautiful people out and was a great way to start off Spring. I ran into this cat name Iceworm and he asked if I could share some of his poetry to the world. I told him if its good enough:

Help me untangle this fallen angel
searching for chicken wings, I look at every angle
Different things dangle , I ride the handle bars,
while the fallen angel pedals hard
through the danger ghetto yards,
I never leave home with out my ghetto credit card,
protected by my god body guards,
looking both ways before we cross da boulevards
