I am excited to again be participating in the Bayou City Art Festival. Please stop by my booth #408 for a look at some of my latest work, as I prepare for my next gallery solo exhibition in January. Tickets and details are available at ArtColonyAssociation.org.
At the VAA 34rd Juried Membership Exhibition
My ‘Tri-Hexa Oak’ was selected to be in the Houston Visual Arts Alliance 34th Juried Membership Exhibition by juror Zoya Tommy, owner of Zoya Tommy Gallery. The exhibition was at Spring Street Studios Oct 24 through Dec 3, 2016.
This piece was my first full scale use of 3D-printed multi-color hexagons. It was a part of my #Heatstroke3D show at Archway Gallery this past February. The dimensions are 25″ x 19″ including the frame.
It is available for $750 plus tax and shipping if applicable. See my Contact page if interested.
Texas Elevation Map Tiles at White Linen
Saturday, August 6, I will be among the artists lining 19th Street in The Houston Heights for the 10th Annual White Linen Night in The Heights.
I will have my newest tiles and magnets, featuring a Texas elevation map rendered by my 3D printer. I have only a few up on Amazon right now, with free shipping for Amazon Prime members.
Grand Opening of My New Studio at The Silos
I will be having the GRAND OPENING of my new studio at The Silos on Sawyer in conjunction with the #SummerSeries. Studio 114 is located in the interior of the western-most section of The Silos, facing Sawyer St.
A Summer’s Solstice in 3D
Dates for the showing: 5/24-7/12
Opening / reception: Saturday, 6/11 4-6 PM
Location: Kam’s Wok / Wine / Dine
4500 Montrose Blvd, Houston, TX 77006
A Summer’s Solstice in 3D is a celebration of earth’s natural rhythms amidst the randomness. 3D-printed elements are incorporated into encaustic paintings in much of the exhibition, characterizing the strict precision of some of earth’s elements (sunrise, sunset, and the timings of the solstices). Encaustic – beeswax mixed with resin – which is applied in a molten state, characterizes the randomness juxtaposed against the precision.
Best in Show at Frisco Arts in the Square
I was thrilled to receive the “Best in Show” award at Arts in the Square in Frisco, Texas during my Spring 2016 North American Tour. What a wonderful surprise! This was a really well run art fair – the organizers did a stupendous job, the artists’ hospitality was exceptional, the weather was great, and the crowds were amazing.
#Heatstroke3D
My debut solo exhibition runs February 6 through March 3 at Archway Gallery. The show includes over 50 new works, most including 3D printed objects to fully exemplify my tagline of combining modern digital elements into the ancient encaustic medium.
I am fortunate to have benefit of the PR team at Archway. Below are some of the media publications:
Houston Lifestyles & Homes Magazine
And if you weren’t able to attend the exhibition opening, below is my Artist’s Talk, explaining my inspiration and struggles with integrating 3D printed objects into encaustics:
“Harnificent” at The Art Car Museum’s “Reincarnation” open exhibition
I regularly distribute Visual Arts Alliance material to Houston’s Art Car Museum, so when their annual open exhibition approached I jumped at the chance to have one of my pieces included. Their exhibition REINCARNATION runs September 19 through December 19, 2015.
“Harnificent” is from my Mannequins at the leatherbar series, and of all of my pieces is the most fitting for a ‘Reincarnation’ theme. It was inspired by the movie Maleficent with a mixture of hell fire below and the heavens above — a sort of phoenix rising.
