Still working on this series of paintings, but decided to lay them out on the wall, in preparation of the open studio event next Saturday. I like the paintings more than the drawings. For some reason the paintings are coming together much faster than the works on paper. I have no idea why the paintings have been easier to resolve and feel "fresher" than the works on paper. My theory is that since working on panel is a "new" format for my work, perhaps I am working more freely with it.I am curious about what the reception will be about the paintings. Someone asked me yesterday what kind of work I do. I said I am a sculptor primarily, which take form most often as drawing based installations, but lately I have been making a lot of painting. About the event next Saturday, July 24th, there has been some confusion whether it is going to actually be a real or just virtual event. My studio mate Manuela Paz and I are going to be hosting an actual event from 4pm - 7pm. 255-266 Calyer Street in Greenpoint Brooklyn. 3rd floor. We hope to see you there!
