Monoprints

Hello All,

I promise to have some prints up soon!  I made my first one today but haven’t had the time to scan it in yet.  This summer will be all prints… but I will definitely have more paintings (and some ceramics) up this fall.

Thanks for your patience!

First Museum Show!

Oh What a Day That Would Be

Oil on Panel 2×4

(not quite finished. i’ll update when it’s done.)

Russell County Show

This project will also be in the Jule Collins Museum of Fine Arts in Auburn from April 28th until May 12th.

As a series, with the newest one

these pieces are meant to be individual portraits of people I love. The first was a scent portrait… for more information on it, see previous post. The second were skin portraits. The third was a blood portrait – representational of family, sacrifice, and love. Here they are as a series:

Russell County Project

Here are some pictures of the church. It still has significant smoke damage. Sadly, the church was a victim of arson at the beginning of the year so I am building them a stained glass sculpture in collaboration with some of the members. Pictures of it will be up shortly because the show it’s in is in two weeks (ack!). It will be in Russell County on the 17th and the Museum of Fine Arts in Auburn, AL on the 25th — Come see everyone’s work, it should be great!

Hello All,

So, I’ve been in Paris for the past two weeks and just got back and realized I don’t have much art worthy of a post yet. I am sortof in the middle of a revamp in style…. so bear with me. I promise, I will have some more stuff up soon…. Until then,

I wish I Could Take Them With Me

Like Felix Gonzalez-Torrez’s piece [Untitled (Portrait of Ross)], (http://www.artic.edu/aic/collections/citi/object?id=152961 a portrait in which he exactly equaled Ross’s body weight in individually wrapped candies… the viewer is encouraged to take a piece of Ross at each exhibit and Ross is continuously replentished), this piece is an individual portrait of 6 people I love. This piece is interactive like Torrez’s but involves the sense of scent to portray each person rather than taste or color. Each person is someone who I love but am forced to be separated from for long periods at a time and thus miss them all often. I find myself attaching to scent memories most often. Each person was asked to send me a white shirt that had been worn. Each shirt was unique in style and scent but was uniformly white, symbolizing their unique identities to me but their shared relationship through me. Polaroids were taken of the shirts to show the differing style of each. The shirts were then placed in nondescript white bags on the wall just above eye level. The height of the piece forces the viewer to interact with each of the portraits intimately by taking them down and smelling them and returning them to their designated hook. Each portrait is simply titled the person’s name: Mom, Emmy, Becca, Dwayne, Cari, and Court

(yep, that’s the love of my life right there)

Instant Headlines

Click here to view the most recent show my work has been in.   Lots of really good, powerful artwork in it… lots of really talented artists.  The show was called “Instant Headlines” (Gallery RFD) and called for art that speaks on how Headlines of the past and present influence our daily lives.  You can click on the images to enlarge the thumbnails.
