Gray Areas or Grey Areas (depending on where you're looking) opens at the Arts Council in Baton Rouge, LA on February 20th and will 

          be up until March 20th. The reception in on Friday February 27th from 6-9pm.

                                                        


         In January I took part in the Scope at the Fort Gallery in Oakland, CA . It was great to be back in the Bay Area. Pics from the reception are here

         Liar's Chair & Eating Crow are part of the Kentucky National 2009 at Murray State University. I just received my copy of the catalog. It looks like it was     
         a great show and I wish I could have visited. 

         Finally, I had my first opportunity to show in New Orleans at Coup d'oeil Art Consortium. I'm  looking forward to show there again soon and
         in the meantime if you are interested in any of the work you see here please don't hesitate to contact them.
            
         I'm clearly not that good at the updates so in attempt to do better you can maybe find more HERE or maybe over THERE  .

          I thought I should throw some 'news' up here before the year draws to a close.

          Learn to Swim just arrived home safe and sound from the Clara M. Eagle Art Gallery at Murray State University. It was included in Think Tank,
          an international show of work exploring contemporary political issues. It was up for the duration of the Presidential Election and then we all 
          breathed a sigh of relief.

                                                       

        "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job."– President Bush, to FEMA director Michael Brown, while touring 
         hurricane-ravaged Mississippi, Sept. 2, 2005.

        "We finally cleaned up public housing in New Orleans. We couldn't do
         it, but God did."
– Rep. Richard Baker (R-LA) to lobbyists, as quoted in the Wall Street Journal. Sep. 2, 2005.
                                                                                ____________________________

         In Janauary, my work will return to Murray State University. Two pieces (Eating Crow and Liar's Chair) have been selected for inclusion in 
         The Kentucky National 2009A National Survey of the most intersting trends in Contemporary Art.

         Volume 3 of Studio Visit has just hit the shelves. It is a Juried Selection of International Visual Artists from the publishers of New American Painting.
         My work is featured on pages 52 - 53.

           Thanks a lot to everyone who came to my show at the Baton Rouge Gallery. New images have been added to the Paintings page.

February. 7. 2008

Therianthropic is my first solo show at the Baton Rouge Gallery since they accepted me as an artist member (yeah I know, that sounds like a euphemism). 

                                         

It will be up until the 28th of Feb. The closing reception is February 27th from 7pm -9pm - Hope you can make it.

It was a privilege to be asked by Joni Davis to provide the artwork for her second album, A Bird's Heart.
THEY did a really nice job on the packaging. Go and buy it here. Go and see her live if you get the chance.

The original painting used for A Bird's Heart along with another piece called The Liar's Chair can be seen in March at the 20x20x20 National Compact Competion at the Louisiana State Univeristy Union Gallery.

The Liar's Chair won 3rd Prize.  

Lots of new pieces will be added to this site soon, honestly. 


July 20. 2007

Yeah I know it's been a while. Since we last  spoke I was included in the 20th International Exhibition of Animals in Art, brought back a ton of inspiration
from Mexico and participated in "Baton Rouge's art event of the summer"! - Art Melt 2007.

Right now I'm really busy, getting ready for my first solo show in quite some time. It will be in October.
More details here soon.

Ok, so after a very imperfect launch into obscurity, I lightened a few things, straightened
a couple out, ended up saying to hell with it, and have sent this link out anyway. 

I received my copies of The 2007 National Labor Federation Calendar the other day.
It was a surprise and honor to be asked by the Bay Area Alternative Press to take part (I got October).
I'll have the piece up soon; but if you live in The CA Bay Area, San Diego, Anchorage, Chicago, Columbus,
Atlantic City, Syracuse, Boston or dozens of other urban and rural areas throughout the United States, look out for it.
