Art Show at 13.5 Wine Bar in Hampden

I have a solo show the second week of December. The Art will be up at 13.5 Wine Bar on The Avenue in Hampden for the whole month of December. This will be my first solo show since the Divided Kingdom Opened Last year at Dionysus. More details to come.

This Thurday September 2nd

I have thirteen pieces in this show. One of the pieces is brand new and even slightly wet when i hung it. I have included along side the new work a bunch of my favorite pieces that I did at the beginning of the year. Also at this show there will be a raffle for a leather bound copy of the gallery 788 1st year book so show up early and buy tickets, I have a picture of my works in the book so I'm stoked.

The work is progressing. Doors are opening. A new show is inevitable.

tangible influences

postmodern?

Bricolage (pronounced /ˌbriːkɵˈlɑːʒ/ or /ˌbrɪkɵˈlɑːʒ/) is a term used in several disciplines, among them the visual arts and literature, to refer to the construction or creation of a work from a diverse range of things that happen to be available, or a work created by such a process. The term is borrowed from the French word bricolage, from the verb bricoler, the core meaning in French being, "fiddle, tinker" and, by extension, "to make creative and resourceful use of whatever materials are at hand (regardless of their original purpose)". In contemporary French the word is the equivalent of the English do it yourself, and is seen on large shed retail outlets throughout France. A person who engages in bricolage is a bricoleur.

June Show At Gallery 788

Good news I have more new work up at Gallery 788 in Pigtown. The show last month went well, and I've been invited back and given a larger wall space which is awesome. So if you'd like to see some of my newly completed smaller work along side some of my larger pieces I'd suggest stopping by 788 Washington Boulevard during the month of June. Or you can scroll down and see a few close ups from the show.

New Show Up Untill May 30th

I will have 9 painting up at Gallery 788 in Pig Town from May 6th to May 30th. The opening is scheduled tonight at 6pm and will go until 10pm. This is their May show and there are 19 other artists as well. I wont be there tonight because i have to work. However, anyone interested in seeing the art and talking about it can show up May 22nd from 12 - 4 (that's a Saturday) I'll be at the gallery hanging out. Otherwise go tonight and have a great time and see all the great local art.

Art In Philly

I was in Philly hanging out with Claes at the gallery he works at. Not sure what the guys name is but he had some cool stuff.

MAP Out Of Order 2010

I submitted a diptych to the Maryland Art Place: Out of Order Salon show and it totally got bid on how awesome is that. So unfortunately those two pieces are gone but it just means I need to paint more. I just need to stay on course.

Tomorrow

Tomorrow I'm gonna go visit Claes, get a new bike seat, and eat a cheese steak...In Philadelphia!!! Hell yeah I'm gonna catch the bus in the wee hours and take my bike with me as always. Hopefully the art museum will have a good exhibit up there and I'll see a lot of heaven spots and phat graff while I'm up there. I'm gonna take mad photos. I can't wait.

A Divine Image


Cruelty has a Human Heart,
And Jealousy a Human Face;
Terror the Human Form Divine,
And Secrecy the Human Dress.


The Human Dress is forged Iron,
The Human Form a fiery Forge,
The Human Face a Furnace seal'd,
The Human Heart its hungry Gorge.

This maybe the first art review I've ever had

So I have a painting up at the Wind Up Space in Baltimore and the show recently had a review. So if anyone out there stumbles on this site go read the review. I'm excited just to be mentioned at all. In the next two weeks I will have 4-5 pieces in an actual gallery. I will wait to give official information about it, but its very exciting to have work hung in an actual art gallery. The gallery will be my first as well. Things seem to be happening rapidly at the moment. Oh yes and i should post photos of the new piece Ive been working on over the last two days perhaps tonight.

Passing Thoughts...Anesidora

Epimetheus it would be good were we to pay heed
this part of the vision i am only realizing now

Exhausted

spent all evening and into the morning working on the new piece. it is now 6am. i have made good head way. soon i will be able to rest. one more day.

An interesting fellow

18 recent paintings left the studio to be photographed. I am working on a 4ft x 4ft painting with influences pulled from byzantine art work and ancient mathematics. I will take some in progress photos and post soon. sometimes when i post these things i act as though i am speaking to those who may find my work interesting, but in retrospect I think that i am the only person to actually read this blog so really i'm just speaking to myself which is slightly depressing.
