This summer I am in a show at McLean Project for the Arts...
http://www.mpaart.org/exhibitions.php.
The show features 41 artists. J. W. Mahoney is the Juror.
I won an award in this show and am very proud to be part of this group of artists who are all incredible. Thank you J. W. Mahoney for selecting me. The work I have in the show is Yellow Flow a piece I did for my doctoral exhibition at George Mason University.
The show is up till July 28th.
After a bit of technology interruption I finally figured out how blogger wants me to format my video clips. This clip is the first in a series of clips that will build the "Twin" painting. The Jungle Book song playing in my head when I was slathering the gesso on the canvas apparently wanted to be known. The things we artist think about during a working session! Thanks for your patience with this blog as I will be posting again on a regular basis.
