Urchin

Following a hiatus from painting after hanging my show at Core Gallery last month I recently started sketching up a few ideas; I really enjoyed working on a large scale again and so will be picking up canvas soon; keep tuned for a new series of rolled works. Here is a sketch of one piece.

Seattle Weekly Artopia Box

When I was contacted by Seattle Weekly to ask about interest in participating in their Art Box project I began sketching out a few ideas as to what I might want to do. When I learned that the beneficiary this year would be Coyote Central, a fantastic organization which focuses on creative learning in adolescents with arts projects, I changed plans and decided to do a version of my work "Belfast".

The box was delivered and over the weekend I alternated painting and waiting for paint to dry. Bright and early Tuesday they returned to pick up my completed work and drop it at the corner of Western and Spring. It will be there for a few months or until it vanishes in the night.

June Opening at Core Gallery

Here are a few photos of my opening this past Thursday during Artwalk. The show of 14 new works will run through June so please stop by and tell me what you think.

A Separate Peace

The Caudled Milk studio is a disaster area with a liberal carpet of paint and glue stained newspapers, tiny shreds of paper, tubes of paint, and more likely than not an x-acto knife or two. But the show is complete or at least hung and ready for the opening tomorrow night during Pioneer Square's Artwalk. I will be at Core Gallery from 6-9 pm so drop by and see the 14 new pieces in person.

Andalucia

I have been super busy but am excited about hanging my show at Core Gallery tomorrow. Well, hanging most of it; one piece is giving me a bit of sass but I should be done with that tonight. The opening will be this Thursday during Pioneer Square Artwalk.

To Have & Have Not

 

I have been putting the finishing touches on the last few pieces and am now moving into all the prep work for my June show at Core Gallery. To Have & Have Not examines the nature of our relationships and interactions using repeated iconography and historical allegory. The show opens during First Thursday Artwalk and will run throughout the month. Stay tuned for information on a second opening/artist reception.
