initial sketch -- floating, with filters, and moving forward.
| Album | Looking Up |
What if the eyelashes (filters) contained words?
-- colorful filters that continue to block
-- working up the stylized clouds in perspective.
When you make your own silver lining -- with orange paint.
Some clouds have rain and create an aura.
We use filters to help us dance. These two are sharing more than just a song.
-- ha. More like Les III looking in-the-way.
Thanks to the TCVA staff for a polished install.
It meant much to me for many familiar faces to join in the celebration for the debut of this body of work. Thank you for the support.
Behind me is the first image associated with Looking Up. This painting though not in the exhibit explores the filters we all have.
The Turchin Center invited me to give an inspiration lecture while on exhibit as part of their Spectrum Series.
Former ASU professor, Gary Nemcosky invited me to share with the students. This was icing on the cake for the alma mater show. And the students asked great questions.
Cloud drawings were added to Looking Up for the second install at the Randolph Arts Guild.
-- dig these cans during install. They're lookin' up at the art they are about to illuminate in Asheboro.
The RAG exhibit allowed for a custom title on the wall. I scrawled it up with graphite sticks and a large ruler.
Thanks to Asheboro Magazine for writing up "Looking Up".
Y'all know it's not a Les III art reception unless there's doughnuts. Thanks to Les II for adding them to the mix.
-- goin' home to new owners.
These paintings really clean up and look great. Thanks to RAG staff for a thorough install.
mood
The sun is setting on the final day of Looking Up in Asheboro. On to install three.
Install three is hosted by Delurk Gallery in Winston-Salem. During the opening reception one lucky fan could when this drawing for being selected as providing the tastiest ginger beverage for me. The image depicts 'ginger ale'.
Thanks to Junior Delurker, Emily for filling in the spiffy sign.
The Delurk Exhibitions Committee made these paintings float. Thank you.
-- special guest artist, Alexandra Loesser also is on exhibit in Delurk. Her paintings are terrifyingly beautiful.
June's First Friday gallery hop in Winston-Salem was packed with many awesome artists opening up their exhibits including Alexandra Loesser and Kat Lamp over at Ember Gallery.
