Dream House Prep

Getting all my materials set and calling in all my favors for my show this spring at the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts! 

Dream House Sculpture

I'm pushing my Dream House series from 2D into 3D. Hopefully this is the first of many cloud puffs. Big things in the works guys. 

Tessellation Portals (or Portholes?!?!)

Made these up last week for a potential show in April. I feel like a genius because I really wanted some round frames but I couldn't find any on short notice, so I bought two clocks at Target and disassembled them for their frames. I'm cool like that. 

UPDATE: Both of these pieces were accepted into the Sweetwater Center for the Arts show Shaping New Worlds and were part of a review written for TribLive. Check out the article here. 

ImageOHIO 15

Super excited to debut this new Tessellation as part of the ImageOHIO 15 show. Come check out all the great Ohio photography and video art at the opening at the Fort Hayes Shot Tower Gallery on Friday, January 23rd 7-9pm. The show runs from January 20 - February 20.

UPDATE: This piece was included in a review of ImageOhio 15 for artHOPPER. Check out the article here. 

 

an art a day: treehouse 2.0

So this is my 30th and last Art A Day! Even though it was rough and stressful getting the ideas made, documented and posted every night, I managed to push out something new every day.

In my normal work mode I often get really wound up in making large projects that take me days or weeks to finish. If I don't have 3 hours of solid time to devote to working on a project I sometimes wont even bother. So I decided to challenge myself to adapt to a different approach, one that's a lot looser, a lot faster, one with less restrictions where I didn't judge myself too much about the process and content. I wanted to make room for little art as well as big art.

It really came down to making art an everyday priority, so even though I'm done making art EVERY DAY (I miss going to bed on time, and seeing movies and going out) I'll continue to invest more everyday moments into my artmaking. So as I continue to share more single day art projects, look out for #smallarts.
