Today I spent my intern-shift painting another layer over the blue painted dividers walls. Some of the edges were missed and so I spread another layer to tighten up the appearance a bit. I also ran into one of my elementary school teachers who is a gallery guide there her name is Sally Templeman. It was nice to catch up with her and talk about some fond memories from elementary school.

Today I helped with finishing touches on a new show in the AN Bush Gallery. The new show is called Radius 25: Face to Face which is a juried show featuring artists from a 25 mile radius around Salem. I learned some lighting techniques for the show and made sure the peices were level.

Today Catherine helped me create a resume for a job I applied for at PSU. I learned a ton from Catherine about the format and tone. She also helped me with the cover letter and additional questions pertaining to the job. we worked on it for around three hours!

I began working on documentation of the youth artist show that has been in the A.N Bush Gallery for the past couple of months. I used a ladder to capture images of the majority of the young artist's works. Close up photos as well as general display photos were included in the documentation process. I also helped determine what artists SAA represents had full bio's on record as well as images and artist statements (as seen in photo).

For my internship shift today I worked on documentation of the Construct show that was recently dismantled. I took photographs of the majority of the work included in the show and began to edit them using Photoshop.

      Today I helped at the SAA by organizing storage spaces. I also was there while another intern Marcus was installing the intern show. In the photo I am carrying a box of bubble wrap and standing infront of my painting Metacognition. I also helped locate certain artist's pieces for inventory.

Here I am on 3-14-12 touching up pedestals for the youth art show with some white paint. As I was working students from The School for the Deaf came in and it was a pleasure to meet them and see them very excited to view their artwork within a gallery setting.
