Some items for sale in the "store".
The theme was 8x10, so basically anything went as long as it fit an 8x10 format - mostly all the pieces were pencil/ink drawings with little to no color - some of our favorites were a skeleton tree with hands made out of bones for leaves and a spine, ribcage and skull for a trunk some others included a little girl with either a sleeping or dead whale and a bee eating a dead hummingbird! Some highlights from the evening included the lively senior senior who came to view the show fully equipped with her walker, orthopedic shoes and FACE PAINT!! It was clear that her favorite piece was a line drawing of a naked woman sitting spread eagle with the dialogue bubble of "hello kitty"! Seeing this the old lady replied "hello kitty...more like hello PUSSY...hey how much for this one?" She then managed to run over just about every member in the crowd trying to "walker" her way through the already tiny and cramped gallery. Of course, as always there were delicious snackies of gummy bears, red vines, almond cookies, multi flavored crackers and capri sun. In other words, it was a typical Giant Robot show, the crowd was small this time, and after about 20 minutes we found ourself satisfied and heading back out into the foggy Haight Ashbury night.
