The show will be up through the end of November due to the popular cries of fans. Ok I'm exaggerating, but it will be up for the next two months :) Please stop in, if you get a chance.
Above is lovely Miki, co-owner and soon-to-be mom, in front of one of "Face"series. She and Daniel own and run this wonderful Carroll Gardens wine shop that helps support smaller vineyards, while offering a varied selection of wines with a great price range! They also support local artists like myself by exhibiting work here. I had no idea they had the space they did in back until I saw it. Miki seemed amused as I kept coming back with more and more pieces from my studio (conveniently located right across the street ;) I've always enjoyed setting up work in an installational manner and letting paintings play off of each other.
Above, some of my favorite ladies-- Martha, Holly & Jess :D
This is adorable Georgia and her sister Violet, who opted to check out the snacks rather than pose for a photo. These two are the daughters of my friends, Graham & Emily, super adorable themselves. Some other friends & neighbors brought their kids to the show, fitting for my work! I wish I had taken more pics that night.
Jane allowed me to photograph her in deep contemplation ;D
I was lucky that a past artist had left up her graphic tree mural, it was a fun backdrop for Big Beach Octy Looms Large Over Tiny People Tanning (favorite title ever). These 3 panels are intended to hang flush against one another, but the jutting of the wall dictated how it's shown here. I ended up liking the space between them.
Thanks for taking a look at my post. It can sometimes feel odd promoting yourself, but I am very pleased to be able to show this amount of artwork in one spot & in such a nice shop.
It's been a long time since I have exhibited original paintings. It's especially nice to have some of the Blip Blop series seen by more than just my close circle of friends!

I enjoyed hanging the flat, illustrative pieces and the bloppy abstractions together :)
