SLU Preview

Here's a preview of a piece that will be debuting at the South Lake Union Art Walk tomorrow evening.

 

South Lake Union Art Walk on October 1

I was recently invited to exhibit at Shine (the Cancer Care Alliance gift shop) for the South Lake Union Art Walk on October 1. It's a lovely space and I'm excited to have been selected! If you're in the area and would like to check it out, the work will be on display from 5:00 to 8:00 PM at:

207 Pontius Ave N.
Seattle, WA 98109

Brash

Between the mold-making and wax-chasing stages of production,  I realized that the head structure had major problems which needed to be resolved. It was hard to do because the wax used for casting is very hard but the forms had to be built up later using a softer wax which comes in a different color, making the result almost impossible to read. It's not my finest hour, but at least it's done.

Seneca

This is one of the new bronzes on exhibit in Kirkland.  Jonathan the patina artist and I had fun on Thursday working out a different look that captures the sensual quality of skin and  I think it  also works well with the lighter opaque patina on "Amanda".

Art Opening This Friday

If you live in the greater Seattle area and are looking for something fun to do this Friday, come check out the Kirkland art walk and my exhibit at the Parklane Gallery! The reception runs from 5 to 8 PM.

Upcoming Show

The Parklane Gallery has invited me back! The exhibit will start on March 3, but several  of my best and most recent bronzes won't be completed until the end of the month. In time for the April art walk  which will happen in downtown Kirkland on Friday 4/10. The images below are of a five week terra cotta study.

Here are some photos of other work cast in resin which allowed me to experiment with higher key patinas.

New Work In Progress

Here are a few photos representing between three and seven hours of progress on my latest.
