ArtLoveMagic
at Titan Comics | |||

So, I wanted to start off by saying that I was so sad to see this night come to an end. I guess the show had to stop sometime, right? I mean, sleep is probably a good thing and it was going on midnight. As an artist who has been part of a couple of ArtLoveMagic events lately, I can’t think of anything else I look forward to more than meeting fellow art lovers, talking about art, watching and being inspired by other artists, and listening to great music while creating (you guessed it)…art.
Being a part of such an innovative force
in the Dallas art scene has got to be one of the most exciting
experiences an artist can have. I believe most creatives thrive on those
rare moments when we get to witness true talent at its most raw and
exposed form. That is exactly what ArtLoveMagic has created, and the
most recent event at Titan Comics definitely did not disappoint. Artists
from all over the metroplex came together to celebrate the wonderful
Dallas Comic scene and showcase their talents, working live in every
medium from pen and ink to clay. Comic book artists showed off their mad
skills to live music in the store while the messy painters worked and
mingled under spotlights outside. Almost everyone who came out stayed
the entire evening and circled back to see the progress each artist had
made as well as make their mark on a huge group piece that was set up in
the shop. ArtLoveMagic events have quickly turned into something the
Dallas scene looks forward to, and as repetitive as it may sound, the
only word to describe what is occurring is “magic”. |

It is not often that one gets to see
artists doing what they love in such a positive, open, and diverse
environment and have the chance to ask questions like, “How did your
style evolve into this?” or even, “What are you drawing with…can I touch
it?” The show at Titan, much like others, connected people who knew
nothing about each other before that night and, once again, succeeded in
stepping out of the box. This is not the cold, quiet gallery setting art
is typically viewed in; it is all-around about the experience...for both
art lovers and artists. -Kathryn Petroff is a Dallas based artist specializing in Conte portraits her art can be seen at http://www.klpfineart.com/ |
