We are so excited to be representing one of our very own, Hailey Lowe! Many of you know Hailey from her days here at GIFA.

Erin McIntosh's work at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport!

For those of you heading off to spring break in the next few days, be sure to check out Erin McIntosh's work at Hartsfield-Jackson! Erin's paintings will be featured alongside work from a few other of Atlanta's top talent in the E-merge exhibit, running from January 2013 - January 2014. This exhibit, which will be held in the T-Concourse, is a survey of Atlanta contemporary artists conceived and curated by Hope Cohn for the Art Program at Atlanta's international airport. Way to go, Erin!!! 




Erin has been busy painting for our upcoming show, "First Day of Spring," a two-person exhibit, alongside artist Sara Cameli. The show will run from March 20th through April 6, 2013. Despite all this unseasonably cold weather, we're hopeful that by mid-March things will have warmed up a bit!
