Red Onion Espressoria in Joplin Opens Tuesday, June 16th!

And why am I excited? Well, smoked chicken dip immediately springs to mind. And stays there for a while.

I love smoked chicked dip. I wanted to name our first child after it, but we decided at the last minute that "Jack" would be easier for him to spell in kindergarten.

Putting the SCD aside for a moment, Calotype is so very, very proud to display BEAUTIFUL Canvas Gallery Wraps of their work all through the restaurant! One very large 40x60" Canvas and 4 smaller-but-still-self-confident 24x36" Canvases.

We photographed the original Red Onion in all its glory (4th and Virginia in historic downtown Joplin), and of course, since we're Calotype and PHOTOGRAPHING PEOPLE IS WHAT WE DO, these pictures were smattered with lovely people having a lovely time. There was smoked chicken dip involved, of course.

Then I designed lovely Canvas Gallery Wraps, our highest quality product at Calotype, using these pictures. I faded and antiqued the photos, using my Top Secret Fading and Antiquing Processes, then artfully arranged them with my new fave graphic— stripes— to create the masterpieces that now hang in the Red Onion Espressoria.

Stop by Tuesday to see, in person, what we created. (32nd & Indiana in Joplin.) And don't forget to order the Smoked Chicken Dip.
