Shows, Shows, and More Shows.

The Art of Water VIII
​@ James May Gallery

Opening this Friday, May 2nd, the James May Gallery presents The Art of Water VIII, one of their longest-running and most popular shows. I am excited to show "Catching Hermit Crabs and Sunset" in only its second public showing and first at a gallery. 

This painting followed the Pandemic Painting series by a few months and exemplifies a number of trends and methods that came about during the series. From a heavy use of water and transparency to the figure, setting, and color palette, come take a look at a one of my favorites from the post-pandemic era and experience a gallery full of area-artist's odes to H2O.

Natural Remedy @ The Outpost
Presented by Scout Gallery

Head on over to The Outpost in Bayview to check out one of my most successful series ever, Natural Remedy, up now through the end of May (or longer!) Almost half of the color rush portion has already been snapped up. Grab one today or contact me to get a commission started.

Thanks to Scout Gallery (Check em out, they're great) for the hookup and support as always. 

Trout Museum of Art
Contemporary Show

With over 450 applicants and only 82 selections, to say I'm honored to be included in another edition (i think this makes #3 or 4) of the TMA Contemporary show would be an understatement. 

Pool Hall Kings will be making its public debut on opening night May 18th. Come on down to Appleton to take in what's quickly becoming one of the area's most prestigious shows at an absolutely fantastic space. 

Bridgeport Art Center
12th Annual Art Competition

After a number of years away I am looking forward to my second time taking part in the Bridgeport Art Centers' 12th Annual Art Competition.

After taking home an Honorable Mention a decade ago for Hard Work, Just Relax (Ironic title juxtaposition eh?) will be making its public debut this May in Chicago at the Art Center. Come on down and take in a great space and a wonderful collection of widely varying artwork.

Indiana Green 15th Anniversary
@ The Thelma Sadoff Center

I'm honored and excited to take part in the 15th Anniversary edition of Indiana Green, the long-running survey of midwest art created by the one and only Frank Juarez this summer at the Thelma Sadoff Center for the Arts in Fond Du Lac.

Dozens of artists from the show's 15 year run will return for another round to celebrate the series' history and display their latest artworks. 

I'll be showing Island; Garden; Oasis; Eden. for the first time in public and am looking forward to seeing what everyone else has in store. At one point Indiana Green featured a group of people I would interact with on a weekly, if not daily, basis. Over the years we've all spread out a bit and gotten involved in our own endeavors. It will be fun to see the group back together after many years and hundreds of artworks.

​More info to come on the opening date for this one but keep an eye out for more and your calendars open later this July.
