Because art shouldn’t wait for permission.

Hello Friends and Collectors,
The art world is changing fast—and I’m diving headfirst into the shift. This weekend (May 31-June 1), I’m setting up shop in a vacant parking lot at 2730 NW 31st Ave for a raw, unfiltered art experience. No pretenses, just paintings, prints, and real conversations.
Why a pop-up?
Because art shouldn’t wait for permission.
I’ll be there from **10 AM–4 PM** with:
- **Original works** (and affordable prints)
- **A free art print giveaway** (just show up to enter!)
- **New Pieces seen up close for the first time
*“The art world feeds off new—new work, new materials, new ways to connect. This is about meeting art lovers where they are.”
Perfect Timing:
My pop-up aligns with **NW Marine Art Works Open Studios** (75+ artists nearby!). Swing by after exploring—I’m tucked beside Iwata-Medea HQ, who is having an art event of their very own, so I'm easy to spot.
This is for everyone:
Collectors, first-time buyers, or just the art-curious. Let’s make it Portland’s most welcoming art weekend.
**See you there!
-Garrick
**P.S.** Forward this to a friend who loves to support local artists.
