Flashback Summer / Fastforward Fall

 Windows @ Solo Exhibition, Newbury Street Boston. July/August 2013


 pre-show prep in the studio -Summer 2013


REWIND: Summer 2013


    This past Summer seemed the polar opposite of endless or lazy. (ah yes...the exact  definition of what my favorite season should rightfully be.) On the contrary, my Summer flew by FAST, furious and fell far too short. 
    The long days of lounging carefree by the waters edge, feet planted warmly in the sand, watching the waves roll calmly by, were sadly few and far between. Although I consider that very scenario my all time favorite and most inspirational activity, instead...I happily (and longingly) stayed busy re-creating that nostalgic feeling in the studio for others to enjoy. 
    July and August proved 100% worth the sacrifice, with an immensely successful solo show in Boston and love floating in from all over the world. My heart was full of gratitude not only for the unbelievable support ...but for the lesson learned that you will always get back what you passionately put into that which you love. 
   
    September brought a bit of a whirlwind, keeping me busy maintaining my sails at every moment. Gratefully, October has landed me right where I should be. Back at the helm, full steam ahead, with a bounty of beauty before me. I'm anxious to discover what the crisp coming season will bring to my table. Change is in the air.

Preparing to Fly

As the deadline for my Solo Show rapidly approaches, I'm getting extremely antsy. The anticipation is building and I'm dying to share all of my new work that's been kept under wraps within my studio walls.

With only one short week until these babies get packed up and prepare to fly, I'm adding all the finishing touches and beginning the process of photographing and filming each piece as they're completed.

As promised, I'll be adding select paintings to preview in the days ahead as well as close-up videos of each piece on my new website.

I hope you will come out to see them all in person this MAY at Lanoue Fine Art Gallery in Boston.

Enjoy!
(and remember to share the love if you do)

Spring Solo Show- Save the Date!


   I'm both excited and a teensy bit disappointed that winter's hibernation has come to a close. A great artist I know recently said to me "winter in New England is the summer of the mind"... and I couldn't agree more. I've appreciated being cooped up in the studio with my 2 dogs, a roaring fire, and loads of extra time. However, this week it was a balmy 70 degrees here in Massachusetts, unofficially welcoming Spring (or so we pray!) which translates as "time to crawl out of creative seclusion!" (...damn.)

   This past winter has been an exceedingly inspirational one and I'm happy to say it has been one of the most productive I've ever had.  I've completed over 12 new 36" paintings, plus dozens of smaller scale pieces, in the short two and a half months since January 1st. In other words... I'm a very happy, fully hibernated artist with WAY too much work on the walls! (Yes, it makes me crazy to hold onto such a large body of work but there is very good reason for this, I promise)
   The majority of the paintings in the studio right now were created exclusively for my upcoming SOLO exhibition at one of Boston's best galleries LANOUE FINE ART.  
I'm excited and honored to be one of the few artists selected for a solo exhibition in 2012 and even more flattered that it was only a few short months after being invited to be a part of the gallery just last summer.
   Because of this rare opportunity, I've purposefully held back showing my new work so it can be exhibited for the first time at my opening this MAY.




I will, however, be previewing selected work online in the days ahead. So please be sure to check back for available paintings and show prep updates!

a glimpse into the studio...


(kinda' feels like I'm in that famous Samuel Morse painting "Gallery of the Louvre"
...which makes me incredibly uncomfortable but strangely satisfied at the same time.  

Samuel Morse "Gallery of the Louvre" ...eeek

On a very special side note, I'd like to dedicate all of my new work to my two biggest supporters and ever patient studio assistants Joni and Marley.
(especially my girl Joni who is going through a little trouble right now. Please send her good vibes and love!)

"Lost and Found" exhibition extended! @ Lanoue Fine Art

My current show
"Lost and Found" 
@ Lanoue Fine Art in Boston
has been extended until January 15th!

Showing NOW, this exhibition also includes the stunning work of Carrie McGee, Johan Hagaman and Andrew Saftel.



"Lost and Found" -Reclaimed Objects and
The Search for Meaning
 "Whether trolling for discarded "treasure" in antique stores, abandoned barns, salvage yards, or flea markets across the globe, common themes resonate throughout these four artists' works. They are drawn to discarded remnants of the past as they search for deeper meaning in the present. Each possesses a passion for constructing layered assemblages that incorporate aged found objects in unconventional ways. Their works offer juxtapositions of vintage and modern, organic and industrial, rigid and malleable, combined to tell stories of universal significance." - Lanoue Fine Art



A very special THANK YOU to those of you who have supported working artists and local galleries this Holiday season 
...and throughout the year!
