Waiting for my ride so that I can hang these photos on the walls at Kafe Kerouac for the Sunday Comix gallery show. I’m so excited!

I invite you to the opening reception on Sunday, February 3rd, for “Laughs at Lakeside” : Cartoon and Graphic Arts by Ohio artists.  I am one of over a dozen artists on display through February at The High Road Gallery at 12 E. Stafford Ave in Worthington, Ohio.  With the cooperation of the National Cartoonists Society Great Lakes Chapter and Steve Boreman, who is chair of the show, cartoonists will exhibit framed or matted originals and prints.  Artists whose work will be on exhibit include Russell Merritt, Ron Hill, Susan Sturgell, Paul Palnik, Judith Vierow, and Sunday Comixers Matt Wyatt & your very own Max Ink. (I’ll be exhibiting three pages from “Space To Breathe.”) The show dates are January 30 through February 23.

The free Artists’ reception on Sunday, February 3rd, will take place from 2-4 PM. The cartoonist group I run, “Sunday Comix”, will head a “cartoonists’ jam session” during the opening in which all artists are invited to a progressive cartoon, adding their skills to the panels as they are drawn. Mike Patrick will select prizes for entries in the show and awards will be given at the reception.

Three dimensional additions to the show are enamel pins by Susan Hunt and felted vessels by Suzanne Pusecker.

The High Road Gallery is located in Worthington at 12 East Stafford Ave, one block north of 161 off High Street. Gallery hours are 12-4 Wednesday through Friday and 11:30 to 4 on Saturday. Gallery phone is 614-781-6454. Visit www.highroadgallery.org for more information.
