DESCRIPTION:<span style="color: #000000;">Hi, I'm Jeff. Fifty-seven years old, six feet tall, with a medium build. I enjoy fishing, swimming, parties, short walks on the beach, screen printing, sign making, and tinkering on old machinery. I am originally from Gumbo, a tiny town in southeast Missouri. I then relocated to Wichita, KS, for around 19 years, and have resided in Lawrence since 2008. I own and operate a screen printing/sign shop in East Lawrence, called Pride of Gumbo. Thanks for looking.</span> <span style="font-weight: 400; color: #000000;">Borrowing from vintage advertising, carnival aesthetic, and car/tattoo culture, Jeff Eaton, AKA Pride of Gumbo, employs traditional sign painting techniques to make bold and colorful works, while keeping it lighthearted and off-beat. Like the hot dog, this exhibition is a combination of parts and pieces that might be overlooked or discarded on their own, but when refined and exquisitely combined into the sweet casing, the viewer's experience is nothing short of a fulfilling delight. Working primarily with enamel, the results are straightforward and crisp graphics. With the objective of simply creating something enjoyable to view, <em>Hot Dogs for Breakfast</em> takes the viewer on a tawdry and delectable journey into the Pride of Gumbo. </span> <span style="color: #000000;"><b>Final Friday and Opening Reception | May 30, 6-9 pm</b></span> <span style="color: #000000;"><b>Final Friday | June 27, 6-9 pm</b></span> <span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Sunday, June 29 | Free State Festival | Hot Dogs for Breakfast with Jeff Eaton | 2:30 pm</strong><strong> </strong>Dogs, Art & Conversation with Jeff Eaton</span> <span style="color: #000000;">Lawrence Arts Center Gallery | 940 New Hampshire St.</span> <span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Sunday, June 29 | Free State Festival | </strong><em><a style="color: #000000;" href="https://freestatefestival.org/event/never-make-it-home/"><strong>Split Lip Rayfield: Never Make it Home</strong></a> <b>| </b></em><strong>$12 | 4 pm</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">Preshow music by The Frightened Stag + Special Guests Q&A</span> <span style="color: #000000;">Lawrence Arts Center | 940 New Hampshire St.</span> <a class="btn-secondary" href="https://ci.ovationtix.com/35591/production/1238291"><b>Buy Tickets!</b></a> <span style="color: #000000;"><b>Final Friday | July 25, 6-9 pm</b></span>
