Art is a Monster

My friend Beth Tokar and I have a show up right now at NWC in an office-turned-gallery. We titled it, "Art Is a Monster" as we are both working on monster related art, though I think we interpreted the idea of a monster differently, the two ideas worked together nicely. Below are my paintings in the show. I interpreted the idea of a monster as something unapproachable which is fitting to studio art for me as I have always found fine art to be unapproachable in a sense. There is one thing you are missing when looking at these photos (apart that photos flatten paintings....) in that I made the gallery space smell kind of gross by a mix of the smell of the black paint and fish sauce I put on the black painting. Anyways, if you have the chance, stop by, the show is up until the end of the week.
