I love it when my work goes to a new home! GRAND COLLISION, polymer plate intaglio, 2022, won the Runner Up - Printmaking award at Ellarslie Open 39, and is going home with Sarah Unger of the Trenton Museum Society! Thanks Sarah!
This video is of the fifth book in my collection, Color Makes Demands. These books are very simple for you to make once you download them. I I'm happy to share this short video that gives you an idea of what my Foldable Dispatches books look like after they are printed, folded, and cut.
I rediscovered this little ditty that I wrote a bit ago. Lots of my earlier work was centered around color and even now I embrace color in even my most minimal works.
Sometimes a color makes demands.
It shouts.
It throws itself at you.
Its luminosity invades your being
until you relent
And press it into a surface.
My year-long PATREON project for 2021 is a small single-sheet artist book/zine collection. This collection will be available to all patrons including the $3/month Studio Journal level. It’s like buying me a cup of coffee each month.
Inspired by numerous single sheet artist's books out in the universe, I have decided to make works that can be digitally shared with my patrons and collectors. I will be creating at least one single-sheet art book each month.
Each month, Patrons will be able to download a book PDF to print and fold at home. Directions and a little video for how to fold it will be posted. You'll be able to see flat views and folded views of the finished book for reference.
The first book is a selection of digital drawings I made for my 2020 project called Digital Ink.
All current Patrons get these new artbooks. I have a video to show you how.
So happy to be part of this show. burst from the maze and somethins happenin both 4x6. I keep rereading this and it keeps resonating:
“The theme for this exhibition was accumulated during episode 28 of the A/M Podcast, a conversation between host, Kaylan Buteyn, and artist Allison Reimus. In the episode, Allison recalls the time she read a statement in a New York Times article about how “You can’t paint at night in your kitchen and hope to be a good artist. It doesn’t work that way.”
In true Artist/Mother fashion, this seemed like a great statement
to respond to for a group show, as an act of resistance and
rejection. To imply that good art cannot be made in domestic
spaces, or that a person cannot claim the title of artist without meeting
arbitrary requirements is a patriarchal myth, one that artists who are mothers
