When you look around
at the walls in your office or store, what do you see?
Walls that are plain, white and boring? Or maybe a picture that
looks older than you?
Wouldn't it be great to see something amazing on those walls?
Artwork not only makes your environment more enjoyable to be
in, but also
makes a statement, improves morale and enhances the image of
your company.
Plus the best part is your payments are 100% tax-deductible!

This first edition, ITALY,
chronicles a photographic journey across the land of dolce vita
through the eyes of 3 photographers:
Wei Wong, Dale
MacMillan, and Jason Johnson.
From the quiet canals of Venice to the iconic Colosseum, from
a sleepy Sicilian fishing village to the birthplace of the Renaissance,
these startling images capture the soul of a country that defies
description.
The idea for "Living the Dream: Italy" was born when
Jason moved to Italy to play American Football for the Catania
Elephants. Dale
and Wei were
not far behind, and a
whirlwind two week adventure took them from the island of Sicily
in the south, north to the Eternal City of Rome, through the
Tuscan hills to the medieval towns of Florence
and Sienna, along the famed Cinque Terre clinging to the Italian
Riviera, and finally to the canals of Venice. Their experience
was epic, as were the images they captured.
The trio are working to establish "Living the Dream"
as an ongoing series of fine art photography from journeys around
the world. The opening night of this 1st showcase
was on Friday, February 6th and it was a fantastic success!
Authentic Italian appetizers from Sorention's Cafe were served
along with fantastic wine from the
Fabiano Winery located in Sona. Tthe artists were also on hand
to answer questions about their work and share stories from
their travels.
Thank you to all those who were able to attend!
Jason is playing this upcoming season in Austria, and "Living
the Dream: GREECE" is being planned for Summer 2009.
