Light, Shadows, Art, Music, & Community











I love AWOL, Portland's Dance Collective, and enjoyed their opening warehouse show last month. They always amaze me with their motivation and execution, and here on their opening night of their new space, it was no less. They invited local area artists to participate, AWOL is all about artists, living your dream, being creative, and being a part of the community! Myself along with other artists in ceramics, painting, sculpting, two bands, and of course AWOL dance was there. Wine and beer was aplenty and the seats were at capacity, and the rest of the space loaded with an art centered community. It was a night you just don't feel like going home or going to bed, and it seemed everyone was inspired and enjoying the riches of living with art. I took along my camera and my artistic documentary eye. I was especially intrigued by the shadows of the dancers.
