GO DEEP ELLUM---> Deep Ellum Mural Project begins

Phase 1 of 2009 Deep Ellum Mural Project begins

DALLAS, TX- The Deep Ellum Community Association renews the rich landscape of independent art that is the life blood of Deep Ellum with Phase I of the 2009 Deep Ellum Mural Project.

Kettle Art Gallery opens for an evening of works by the artists scheduled to Mural the Project's Good Latimer Corridor - Saturday, June 27 at 7p.m.

Phase I of the 2009 Mural Project will feature murals along the Good Latimer/DART rail line in the very area that the Good Latimer Tunnel Murals are buried. Dart line passengers will exit the Deep Ellum rails and be welcomed with murals from Phase I artists: Luke Harnden, Cathey Miller, Sergio Garcia, Mark Nelson, Brian Crawford, Amber Campagna, Issac Brown, Issac Davies, Tyson Summers, Judith Lea Perkins and Frank Campagna.
Murals will begin along the corridor in July and August.

(The murals will be across the street from the Reel FX Deep Ellum Gateway Traveling Man.)

Thanks to support from the Phase I Sponsors for funding and making the murals possible:

clouds - mammatus

Lat week we witnessed this type of cloud formation in North Texas. I hadn't seen this type of cloud, since i made a cloud book for my friend Megan in 1994. Might be a surprise that i was a science nerd in middle school (ha!) but we did a segment on clouds that i remember till this day. So here is a little background on this type called mammata.
-----------
No Photoshoppery here - Mammatus clouds are formed when the air is saturated with rain droplets and/or ice crystals, and begins to sink. They don’t precede a tornado or presage a storm; the worst of the storm is usually over when Mammatus are seen. The name “mammatus” is derived from the Latin mamma (breast), for the way they hang down, seeming to offer … something.
