contrast art show photos!


So the 3rd installation of the Contrast Art Show over this past weekend was awesome. I think this was the best outcome yet. There were many great guests, artists, and I could go on. The live body painting proved to be extra interesting this time around as well, but in order to keep this blog "safe" I will not post any pics of the daring activities...

There is a plethora of pics from the show, and here are some from my corner.
I put in four original paintings. Two were from the mannequin series, one fishboard from the surf series, and one brand new painting. My set-up also included four prints.

and all these are the business cards I made for the show: old school in CMYK.

too soon to tell

I've started working on a new painting prior to finishing my last. Starting a brand new (big) project sometimes seems slightly overwhelming at first (before you get into the speedy flow of things), so this time around I just went for it. Time management is a beautiful thing!

So here are the very early stages of what's to come (colored pencil and graphite).


           I like capturing the beginnings of paintings; they're sort of silly.
