The Outer Box

What up peeps. I’m back from my much needed vacation. Savannah was such a neat place. We had a blast out in the historic district. It was just a lot of fun spending time with my sona and my wife and really spending time together without running from here to there. Just relaxing and enjoying each others company. Good times. While I was in Savannah I decided to check out a few galleries out that way and well….i saw a lot of the typical. Boats, fish, palm trees and random southern imagery dominated every single gallery we visited. The asking price for some of the “art” I was was absolute insanity. Praying upon the feverish spending of the tourists. The local galleries in the historic district were all pretty much the same. The best place I found to check out some really great work was at the Savannah College of Art & Design or SCAD. They have there own museum and it was very impressive. A lot of really great paintings and sculptures could also be found at the Mercer House. The Mercer House has many amazing portrait paintings, landscape paintings, sculptures, and ornate architecture, it was really mind blowing. All in all we had a great time, ate a lot of southern cooking, acted like tourists, and had fun just hanging out in Savannah’s historic district. Glad to be home though! Just wish I didn’t have to go to work this morning. Ill be posting up some goodies on the ol’blog here soon. I need to get caught up on email and random art things. Til then–BG
