…through the front door of the Bullseye Gallery, the first attendees to arrive for the opening night festivities of BECon 2007.

Where they collide with a wall of black and white Bullseye babes…

…and yet another wall of B&W….this one by Jun Kaneko, embracing our DC contingent….

…some obviously good humor, shared by Bullseye’s Maria-Gracia and California artist Steve Klein…

…Montana artist/architect Richard Parrish with Portland artist/art professor Susan Harlan….

…and enough Quagliatilian philosophy to make Mary Kay’s head spin…

Already 2-1/2 days have passed and I’m having a hard time remembering the first evening of the conference. So much has happened in the meantime: the standing ovation for Quagliata’s keynote address, Gordon Huether’s revelations on Love, Art & Money that left the audience rolling in the aisles, the Lehr-B-Q last night, from which I am still recovering…and so much more that I’d love to recount, but….
I’ve got to feed the cat and get off to the Hilton.
