Solo Show
I've got a solo show coming up in January 2013 at Abend Gallery in Denver. I'll post the exact dates as soon as they are nailed down. Abend has represented my oil paintings for a few years now and I'm delighted to have the opportunity to show my newest work there. That means that posting here might get much more sporadic over the next six months. These little ones are the things I make between paintings or as part of my daily practice. They aren't for commercial purposes per se, but I love them nonetheless. Hopefully in the rush to complete my main work, I'll still get time to post here. If you are interested to see my main work, here's the link to my portfolio website, click here .
Don't you like this small format? I like how you have added words to your collage. I was think of using stamps too. They look nice with the frame around them. How did you do that?
ReplyDeleteHi Carla, thanks for stopping by and commenting. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love small works-on-paper for my experiments and play -- which this blog is mostly for. By using a small size and paper as the support, it allows me feel free to just try stuff and not feel too precious about the end result. On my main artwork, the oil paintings, things are much more planned.
The "frame" you see on these pieces are just the white space on the Stonehenge paper I've left surrounding the image. Considering how much I use the stuff should buy stock in Stonehenge's 8" x 8" paper pads. :-)
