NAKED: Art on Raw Surfaces event


This event to promote figurative art was organized by Studio Art Direct and was held at the offices of the American Institute of Architects, at NW 11th and Flanders, on Thursday June 5. It was like other First Thursday gallery receptions, only with actual live artists (Bill Park, Sidonie Caron, and me) drawing an actual live model (Julie Webb). The show includes one painting reproduced many times using giclee (inkjet) printing on many different surfaces. It also now includes many of the 25+ drawings produced by each of the artists during the three-hour reception, and these drawings are for sale. The photograph above shows some of these drawings as they were at the end of the evening. Mine are in the middle.

OK, still waiting for a new posting! I wish you lived here! Is there any hope of that, ever? You are the wind beneath my wings. I have many memories of painting with Aimee. Good times...

That Krispy Kreme performance was a magic moment in time when everything came together perfectly. That was our finest hour. I have no words...
