MAD.KAT GALLERY ART OPENING

MAD.KAT GALLERY - OWNERS KIM AND RUSS TOLMAN

SYNCHRONICITY. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME WITH ME. AND MEETING KIM AND RUSS TOLMAN WAS THE LATEST EXAMPLE.

I RANDOMLY LOOK UP LOCAL GALLERIES HERE IN PALM SPRINGS.  MY LITTLE TOWN IS BURSTING WITH GALLERIES, SO; THE SEARCH WAS ON. I SAW THIS QUIRKY, VERY WELL ATTENDED AND SUPPORTED GALLERY IN RANCHO MIRAGE. THESE TWO ARTISTS CHOSE SUCH INTERESTING EXHIBITS! I HAD TO MAKE CONTACT. LOCAL AS WELL AS OUT OF THE AREA ARTISTS WERE REPRESENTED. I CALLED THEM AND INTRODUCED MYSELF. TOLD KIM ABOUT MY NEWFOUND ARTISTIC ADVENTURE. SHE SAID, COME ON IN SO WE CAN SEE THEM CLOSE UP. SO, THE NEXT DAY I DID JUST THAT. WE HAD A GREAT VISIT; THEY LOVED MY LAMPS AND THEN TOLD ME THEIR NEXT SHOW'S THEME WAS TO BE MUSICIANS AND ART! WE ALL LOOKED AT EACH OTHER AND SAID, UH, PERFECT! THE SHOW RAN FOR A MONTH. I SOLD MY HIGHEST PRICED AND FAVORITE LAMP DURING THE OPENING, AND THROUGH THE SHOW MADE CONTACT WITH SOME VERY EXCITING ART BUYERS/COMMISSIONERS. I EVEN SANG WITH A GUITARIST. (ADDED BONUS!!)
