Cash from Color, Light, Motion

Very excited about this:The David Bermant Foundation at UCLA has deemed it fit to fund the artist known as Oilly Oowen, and the synchretic, idiosyncratic project entitled The Beginning Was The End. Some projects, like this one, take years to complete; at this point, you, dear reader, may even be grateful for the support these very generous dollars bring toward getting this lovely blimp off the ground in 2014.

The Foundation "... is devoted to fostering the efforts of artists working with non- traditional materials. These materials include physical sources of energy, light and sound, which are used in works that question and extend the boundaries of the visual arts." Mr. Bermant sounds like he was an interesting chap.

Huge thanks to my friend John Hood down at Hancock College for recommending me, and to my fiscal sponsor, Fractured Atlas.

It's an Oowen-elevating, even levitating, situation.
