Re: Kloe is hoping to be the Rachel Ray of drawing…

I heard an interview on “Fresh Air” about the preponderance of cooking shows on television. It seems that the activity of food preparation may be wired into us genetically through thousands of years of human development. We may not do it in the 21st century, but we like to watch it.
Could it be that preparing images is also hard-wired? Is there some fascination about making drawings/paintings/sculpture (or watching others produce art) that started more than 50,000 years ago in caves?
Would you watch a plastic babe draw for 22 minutes?

Trade Show opens tonight in Lalaland!

“Drawing with Kloe”

Here’s my OTHER big project, besides the “Trade Show” and the bungalow restoration, both of which are pretty much wrapped up—a series of videos in which I teach drawing. (See a little plastic Bratz lecture on proportions of the face, etc.) I’ve been working on them for a year, gradually getting more technically professional equipment and expectations. Now I’m really serious!
More to come.

Studio Inauguration

Spent the first day in my studio today with crew and friends shooting videos. Have no idea if they will turn out. The light in the studio is quite good for filming, but I underestimated the ambient street noise—my studio is on a busy urban corner.
Have been so worried about multiple things lately—slept badly—and therefore wasn’t at my best for the shoot. I don’t think I’ve talked about it on Kloe before, but I’m making drawing videos to teach online. A sort of fallback if the academic gig doesn’t work out (read: sarcastic understatement).
Now I need an agent. Got any ideas???
