Just drew this today and shipped it off to Tempus projects in Florida for their mail art catalog and exhibit. Not sure what to call it. "Mystery Hug" comes to mind. This is a 7"x7" drawing of my new model Maggie V.
This article featuring my work was recently published in CommonCreativ. Now that Spring is in the air...it is time to get busy with new paintings....but first I have to move my studio! I'll be moving from Cabbagetown to Inman Park in April, so Springtime calls for cleaning out and moving to make way for new work which will unfold beginning May.
In just 3 days, my exhibition of paintings and sculptural elements titled "Softcore War" will open with a reception at Whitespace Gallery, Friday, September 10th, 7-10pm. I've been working on this series since Springtime and I'm happy to have the work out of my studio and in the gallery! To read, listen and see more about this show, here are some links to check out. The first article was published in this Atlanta's Creative Loafing September 2nd issue. And thestudiovisit.com published a studio visit video, interview and images. There is also a preview in The Atlantan. and Burnaway. And Cathy Fox wrote this review in ArtsCriticATL.
Had me a blast in Washington D.C. My "Trip for Two" drawings were selected for "Body of Work: New Perspectives in Figure Painting" at the National Museum for Women in the Arts, Washington D.C. I flew up for the exhibition reception and gave two brief talks on members day. It is nice to show the work to a new audience. The show exhibits from July-Sept. 2010. Here is a brief review in the Washinton Post.
I'm very excited to be a part of the "Tiger Tiger Burning Bright" Group show at Roq la Rue Gallery in Seattle which opens May 14th, 2010. My work will be alongside some of my favorite artists and the gallery owner Kirsten Anderson has such great taste! Check out the gallery's website for more info: Roq la Rue Gallery
Started this painting at the Hambidge Residency program this Summer. Currently it is on display on the 5th floor, building C, at SCAD Atlanta for open studio night, Nov. 12, 2009....6 months later, it was purchased by SCAD and it now resides in their new Hong Kong campus.
