Sculpture Space, Inc. CHAIRity Auction

I have decided to donate this piece for the annual CHAIRity auction at Sculpture Space... an international sculpture residency program with which I have been involved since 1999. Hoping it will fetch some good bidding next Saturday night.

"Antidote"

Friend and fellow collagist Anthony Morgan and I had our opening reception last night for our two-person exhibit we entitled "Antidote". We decided to call it that because we hope that our artwork (and artwork in general) provides people with an antidote, even if only temporary, to the myriad of woes in the world. The opening reception was a success! Lots of friends came out and some of the pieces sold (which is always a nice bonus). Toeny and I created this piece to raffle-off (I hated to see it go ;-)

finished product

I know I should wait until I have the finished product, but I'm just so excited about this one, that I had to post the "almost-finished" composition (and the frame goes perfectly too). For now...

"I'm pleased now"

I've been working on new pieces for my show next week at The Dev in Utica, NY. I was hoping to work on some bigger pieces (dimensionally), but find myself drawn more to creating smaller pieces. Here's one that's 4.5" x 4.5". And this one is a bit less "narrative" than usual for my work. I was just attracted to the colors and patina of these pieces of paper (and of course, couldn't resist the text).
