Just in case you missed the show at Harris Stanton Gallery.  I've included some of my painting here.  Also, I'm in a group show at Summit ArtSpace in Akron which runs through Novermber 22 called "Full Circle". 

This painting was hard to photograph because of the metallic paints in it.  Also, it has a mechanical flaw.  When I built the panel, the brads I used were not flush with the surface of the board.  They sunk lower than the surface and the gold paint puddled into the recesses and created polka dots across the surface of the sky.  The problem is not hard to fix.  Issues always seem to pop up.

 

Come see the show: Cleveland Neighborhoods

Harris Stanton Gallery, 1370 West 9th Street

The opening is Friday, August 28th 6-8:30.

 

Documenting my work is very important to me.  Also, documenting it well is just as important. A few years ago, one piece, I never took a photo of and I mailed it away to a gallery and it sold and I forgot to take a picture of it accidentally because I was rushing.  Documenting a piece well is just as important because it's the only piece of history I have of the work.  

"House on Liberty Street" was painted for the New Arts Program in Kutztown PA salon show.  The major stipulation for this show is that the work cannot exceed 200 square inches.  I usually paint a
specific painting for this show because of the size restriction.  The cropping of this image was my main inspiration  for this piece.
