Inspired By My Collage Group

I made these pieces today in my monthly collage group. There's nothing like hanging out with a small group of artists creating our own stuff while enjoying each others' good company. Both pieces make use of acrylic gel-printed tissues and papers.

City Wide Open Studios - Upcoming Opening Reception on October 4

New Haven's annual month-long art bash, City Wide Open Studios, will kick off this coming Friday, October 4, with the opening reception at Artspace. I will be participating along with hundreds of other Connecticut artists. We each have one piece in the main show at Artspace, and will be showing the remainder of our work at one of three subsequent weekends. I'll be at Erector Square on October 12-13. I hope you can stop by! Here's a sampling of my work:

Behind the Silver Lining - The Art Show

Behind the Silver Lining was great! Take a quick Video walkthrough that includes the work of my co-artists, Tony Ferraiolo and Lorraine Hurley.

Here's a closer look at my part of the show:

This is about two thirds of my space. The pieces on the left are small collages, and on the right, my Inner Geologies series, shown in more detail below.
