Carpaccio Magazine

I’m delighted to have two of my paintings reproduced in the current issue, “Error,” of this Spanish arts magazine. Carpaccio can be viewed online here.

Thank you, Carpaccio.

Thank you

Gene Davis, for the kind and creative review in the  Denver Daily News.

I’d probably love to see you.

Doors Open Denver

If you’re out and about peeking into buildings as part of the Doors Open Denver tour this weekend, please stop by Citizen Pictures at 2800 Speer Boulevard. It’s an unusual space (the roof fascinates me) and I’m pleased to have several paintings hanging on their walls right now.

From the website:

Doors Open Denver is an annual celebration of Denver’s built environment and design. During the free two-day event, you can tour the spectacular buildings you see every day but may never have entered. You will truly experience and develop a new appreciation for your home town and the sites that comprise Denver’s rich architectural landscape.

One of the buildings on the tour this weekend is Citizen Pictures.

The Dog and Pony Show

 

There is another attractive juried exhibit currently showing in Denver at CORE New Art Space. The Dog and Pony Show, juried by Craig Marshall Smith and curated by Claudia Roulier, called for artwork depicting animals in any media. I was happy to have a couple of pieces accepted into the show, including “The One-Horse Town,” shown above. My personal favorites from the show were Skyler McGee’s large, loosely worked, breathtaking canvases just inside the gallery’s front door.

Artists Against Convention

I’m thrilled that jurors Patricia Calhoun and Jason Salzman chose my painting, “Spanish Lesson,” for inclusion in this show at Next Gallery that was conceived to relate to the coming Democratic National Convention. The jurors who chose the work and the artists of Next who hung the show did a great job. You can view images from the show here.  One of my favorites from the show is Michael McGrath’s “The Rape of Uncle Sam.”
