I know I've been MIA as of late, but for good cause:
I've been getting prints made, designing a business card (see below- I am proud), framing pieces and creating a ton of new paintings (one being a collaboration between Xtina and I) all while working full time in our busiest season. But, I have learned that I can do this- and that I have the drive to really accomplish and create. It feels pretty great.
I could not ask for a better partner in crime than Ms. Xtina Carbone, either. She's one of my oldest friends and an artist I admire and respect. Our styles are complimentary but almost complete opposites. Her paintings are lush and brilliantly colorful. They're totally organic, even when they are mapped out using rigid geometric shapes they seem to be representing complex cellular structures. Xtina creates compositions full of life- plants, flowers, figures, and deities. Pretty funny next to mine, when the best I come up with are starkly bare trees reminiscent of winter months. She is also an amazing designer (see the flier at the top of the page, that is her baby). It is an honor to show with her.
As promised, a view of my business card. I feel so official. It's been a long time coming!
