All that Glitters - The Art of Iridescence

Have a show at Frame Master Gallery in Allen, TX until Jan. 31, 2013.  Good way to start the new new year.  Had a wonderful opening reception on December 15th.  Sold one piece so far.  It is a two person show with my friend Kelly Bartlett (www.morphostudio.com) who will be curating shows for the gallery in the future.  Very busy these days.

I love the series I am working on.  My current series is about working with a three part composition, on one canvas, making the three parts balanced and harmonious so that they are integral and work together as a complete painting.

Continuing the Series

Yesterday I finished this painting which is the third in my series experimenting with this composition.  It is a series exploring color relationships and balancing the composition. I don't know what it is about this composition that is so appealing to me.  I see it as an abstraction of a view from a high window.

This is my newest painting. "The View II,"  I like this composition and am going to do a series based on this division of the canvas.  It is the second one I've done. The first one was "The Edge."

Showing

Been in a few exhibitions in the past few months. "Edge" was in the Laura Moore Gallery exhibition titled "The Edge." I had 2 pieces in the Visual Art Guild of Frisco members show in February including "Love in Wonderland". Also in February I had 3 peices in the 8680 Gallery "RED" show, including "Red Divide". Also had a piece "Switch To" in the Plano Art Assoc. show, "What I Love About Texas." (Posted here.)

Finding Time

It is so hard to find time. I want to paint. I have great ideas. But life keeps getting in the way for the past few months. I am brimming over with the need to put brush to canvas. And so I will. I will. And soon.
