Exciting News!

My opening at Lyndsay McCandless Gallery in Jackson Hole, WY was fun. Thanks Lyndsay, Sam, and Natalie!

The drive from Lander to Jackson for the opening...yes this is in June...it is Wyoming after all!

I found out in early June that I was one of three Wyoming artists to win a 2008 Wyoming Arts Council Fellowship Award. The award comes with a cash prize and a show in 2009.

The money that I won from the Fellowship will be put towards the construction of a free standing studio in my backyard. I have already started building and am thrilled to have more space to work. I borrowed the idea for the structure from a company out of California called modern sheds. Their structures look sleek and modern, mine however is looking more and more like a shed for horses. I guess it fits with my "Western" surroundings.

One last thing, I was invited to make a piece for a show at the Lark and Key Gallery in North Carolina. The show is titled "The Song cathcer Show" and is comprised of work inspired by music. I made a piece titled "Miles from Monterey" by West Indian Girl.

2 Weeks

Well, I am down to the wire for my show at Lyndsay McCandless opening June 6. As usual and in true painter fashion I still have two pieces that I am working on. I am going to deliver the work on Friday and then immediately start working for my next show.

Now that I am done with teaching for the summer, I am thoroughly enjoying my studio time. I have been putting in 6 or more hours a day painting...it is fantastic!

Hope to see you at the show!

June Show Approaching Soon

My June show at Lyndsay McCandless is about a month away. I am currently finishing the last 6 paintings for the show. I should have around 25 pieces total. The piece below titled "Vestige" is the image that will be used for the show card.

If you are interested in pre-purchasing work before the show opens, please let me know and I will work with the gallery to ensure that you can get the piece (s) that you want.

On a side note, my website www.mattflint.com, should be completely updated with new images and upcoming exhibitions by June.
