Meltdown

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Soyal Gallery in Scottsdale, AZ is putting on a group gallery show entitled Meltdown. The opening is tomorrow night from 7 to 10 PM. There are apparently going to be over 30 artists in the show, including yours truly. It’s located at 4200 N Marshall Way Suites 2 &3. I can’t make it out for the opening but if you’re in the area, stop by. I’m sure there’s going to be some great stuff on display.

For more on the gallery, it’s whereabouts and regular hours, check out their website- www.soyalgallery.com

Here’s my piece for the show. The Abominable Snowman’s Melting Habitat, 8×10, acrylics on board. Click to make it bigger.

Two More Flowernauts

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

Hey Everybody!

My last post had information about the gallery show, Almost True: Based on Real Events, that’s opening tonight. As a reminder it’s 6 to 9 pm at Lulubell Toy Bodega.

I just finished my paintings this morning, which means they aren’t dry. That also means I couldn’t put them on my scanner to get a good image. In lieu of a good scan, here are some photos. For my true events, I decided to do two moments from the Apollo Missions. One is Apollo 11’s first landing on the moon. The other is Alan Shepard playing golf during Apollo 14.

They are both 8.75 X 11.25 and will be selling for $150 each.

Shepard Takes A Swing

So these will be hanging at Lulubell for the duration of the month. If you can’t make it into the gallery but want to purchase one, they will be posted on Lulubell’s website by Monday.

If you live in Tucson, I hope to see you tonight!

Almost True: Based on Real Events

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

I’m showing in a group gallery exhibition that opens this Saturday, April 10th. Titled “Almost True: Based on Real Events,” all of the paintings are each artists’ interpretation of an actual occurrence. I’ve decided to interpret two of the big moments from the Apollo space program. Of course, that means more flowernauts! I’ll post them when I get them done as I’m not finished with either of them yet.

The show card below contains all of the pertinent information on where (Lulubell Toy Bodega), when (Saturday from 6 to 9) and who (20 artists!).

The image on the card is “Patrick Henry” by Roberta Gentry.

If you live in Tucson, I hope to see you Saturday!

Buen Provecho! The Art of Food, The Art of Giving

Monday, December 7th, 2009

I’m currently participating in group charity show that is hanging at Lulubell Toy Bodega & Gallery. This past Saturday (December 5th) was the opening reception held as a silent auction. Both of my paintings sold through the auction. Every participating artist has agreed to donate a portion of the proceeds to the Tucson Community Food Bank. Lulubell is making matching donations.

Posted below are my two paintings. As always, click to make them bigger.

“Sweet Revenge”
Oil on Wood

“Dinner Won’t Cooperate”
Acrylic & Casein on Wood
10″ X 9.25″

You can see the entire show at the facebook album the gallery set up.While half the show sold at auction, there are still some amazing paintings left up for sale.

Thanks to all who came out and made it a very helpful night for many people in need.

Last Laugh

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

Hello Everyone,

Posted below is my contribution to the Day of the Dead group gallery show that I curated. It opens this Saturday from 6 to 9 pm at Lulubell Toy Bodega & Gallery in Tucson and runs throughout October. I spent the day yesterday hanging all of the work and I’m extremely happy with it.

My painting, titled Last Laugh, is mixed media and measures something like 16 x 20, I think. What you expect me to remember things about my own work?

You can click to see a bigger version. I’ll also post a picture of it in the frame a bit later.

It’s priced at $500 and you can contact the gallery at (520) 622-5858 if you’re interested in purchasing it.
Update: SOLD!

I hope to see you all at the opening this weekend. It’s going to be great.
