Delicious!

It should come as a surprise to no one that I'm in this show!  Since cake frosting is a major inspiration for the majority of my paintings (and my life), it seems fitting.  I was glad to note that dessert was highly represented in the work I saw when I dropped my drawings off at Rua.

Hope to see folks at the opening on March 24th!

My melty ice cream friends will be on view.

Jane Black, artist and the executive director of Dayton Visual Arts Center profiled Amy Kollar Anderson's and my show at Gallery 510 for her Looking About column in the Dayton City Paper. Instead of reading like an advertisement for the exhibition, Jane's writing actually tackles our two bodies of work in a more substantive manner.

As an artist I appreciate any attention to my work (it's terrible to be ignored!) and a press clipping is something tangible to send to my parents. It's proof that all those hours spent mulling over the beauty of my neon sunglasses does have an impact eventually. It's even more amazing, though, when it's obvious that the writer has thoughtfully considered your work.

Color Extend

Hi Folks!

If you're in the Daytonian area for First Friday in August, stop by the Gallery 510 to see some of my most recent drawings and paintings. Fluorescent yellow, melting ice cream, and nefarious clouds will be heavily featured. I'll also be sharing the space with wunderpainter Amy Kollar Anderson. It's sure to be a good time!
