It was a scorcher of an evening, but that did not stop the people flowing in and out of the gallery the evening of the Elsewhere opening reception. David Ferreira and Adam Miller put on a colorful and fantastical display of work that everyone clearly enjoyed seeing.

David exhibited new paintings that contain some of his favorite subject matter; octopus, sparrows, antlers and bugs. The pieces were successful at striking up conversation as folks debated about the artists' intentions and statment and then what their own takes on them were.

David also showed a series of 6 original ink drawings that he did under one hour each. These drawings ranged from an interesting take on a dumpster to a squirrel playing chess in the park. They amused and intrigued the crowd and offered some good laughs. These drawings are an excellent example of Davids innate ability to look at the world with a unique perspective — finding a story to share in everything around him.

The show also included more traditional illustration based paintings and a figure painting. This show presented a great deal of discovery by the artist and offered a great deal of discovery foo the crowd.
