Hello all, my name is Evan Treece and I'm looking for a merchant to display my artwork for the Ventura Artwalk on October 8th. A collection of my work can be found online at www.evantreece.com for you to view at your convience. My work is mostly fun tongue and cheek, and play on language with it's themes. I have many different pieces to display in all sizes and shapes and i don't really need any special requirements to show my stuff; just your permission, a wall or space to put easels. In return my minions and I will promote your location for the event with flyers, myspace bullitens, facebook groups, and all sorts of cool marketing stuff we have up our sleeves. Thanks for reading and you can contact me with the means below if your interested!

My name is Joel I. Rabina, I'm looking for Merchants to sponsor my "Art Presentation" for the next Artwalk in October 2008. I participated in the Summer 2007 Artwalk as one of the live artists for the Streetscape Mural Project in Downtown. I painted the utility box located at Main St. & Palm St. (title - "Contrasting Motion"). I'm looking for several merchant sponsors for my artwalk presentation in October.
My Vision/"Presentation":
Instead of selecting one merchant to feature my work, I'd like to find several merchants along Downtown Main Street to feature my work. You (the merchant) will be able to choose the piece you would like to have displayed from a selection of my original photography & graphic design pieces. The idea is to use your store front windows as my canvas. Making the entire Downtown Main Street into a walking gallery. Your chosen piece will be digitally printed on high quality white translucent vinyl material. The digital print will then be applied to your store front window (in location specified & approved by merchant). During the day the window graphic will be an eye catching element to be enjoyed by passer-bys & window shoppers. But also, a great tool for YOU, to help in drawing the customers to your store fronts. (Depending on size of artwork & location on window).
A whole new experience happens at night. Because these graphics will be printed on translucent white vinyl material, the glow from inside the merchant's store will give the window art a light glow, as if the pieces are actually being lit up. Very similar to viewing a picture on a light box. I have photo renderings of my presentation on request for viewing.
I will meet with every merchant that would like to sponsor me in this event to go over full details. I will need to meet with the merchants to go over material details, measure window size, verify & approve window location, etc.
I can also begin making contact with merchants via email as soon as possible to go over details, send more information & possibly set up a meeting.
Please contact me via email if interested & to receive more information.
Thank You,
Joel Dynn I. Rabina
