sometimes i still wander...
i haven't touched oils for about 6 or 7 months now, it felt great to get back to it.
22 x 30, oil on watercolor paper... finished?? probably not.
i had such a good time with these smaller pieces, really just laying on the paint. most of it was with a palette knife and went really quick. i think i'll use them as sketches for a larger more ambitious painting... maybe.
sorry for the crappy photos.

off white, white, whiter.
These are pretty old now, but i don't think I've posted them. Just got the photographs from David Tillinghast. They were done for his class last spring.
photo-transfer, thread and silkscreen on watercolor paper.

loma prieta
In 1989 the Loma Prieta earthquake struck California at 5:04 pm. The quake lasted for 13 seconds. I was 7.
This shape represents one second of the earthquake. The line is derived from stretching the seismograph readings out to one second intervals.
Im really into the idea of art that is driven by data, in which the art is meant to heighten the understanding of the data. I don't know if this is particularly successful, but the idea is interesting and something I'd like to pursue further.
i've been doing a lot of drawing and painting as well... but i'll save that for later.

recess
I've just been playing around since the show, and doing a lot of thinking.
there are some interesting ideas in my head right now, hopefully they will turn into art in the near future.

WANDERLUST
vLast Friday was the opening for Wanderlust at Subtext.
Thank you so much to everyone that came to the show, a huge thanks to all those that drove down from LA and an even HUGER thanks to everyone that bought some work. Thank you to Subtext for all your hard work and making the show look so good. and finally endless respect goes to Demetrius who absolutely killed it.
The show runs for about a month, so if you're in the area check it out.
Crystal sculptures, I'll make a post about how I grow these... science is fun!
In addition to the main wall I did a little process section where I grew crystals the night of the show and displayed the sketchbook that I kept while making the work.. it seemed to go over well.
There was a really good turn out, thanks guys!
There are still a few pieces available, let me know or contact Subtext if you're interested in purchasing one.
Time to get back to work.
