Work for Central College Show...Part I

Happy New Year! Thanks to everyone who supported me and my work this last year. It has been an amazing year. I had three solo shows, won an artists fellowship, built a studio, did some commission work, and was in multiple group shows. I am in the process of setting goals for next year and can't wait to see what happens.

I have a solo show at Central College in Pella, Iowa in February. I have already delivered some of the work and the rest is almost ready to go. Below are a few pieces that will be included in the show. This month I am showing work in our annual faculty show at CWC.

Please keep in touch and feel free to pass my blog link around to anyone and everyone.

Works on Paper

I had some collage/mono prints laying around in the studio that I really liked, but thought they could use something more. I worked back into each of the prints and added the birds. There is something quite nice and fragile about them. I really enjoy the contrast between the subtle value of the black ink and color/texture of the oil paint.

All of the works are 14"x11" on Rives BFK paper. The titles are Listening I, II and IV (don't ask what happened to III.) The work is available through Stewart Gallery.

A special thanks to Stewart Gallery for a successful show in October!
