Vermont Studio Center Residency Program

I just found out that the Vermont Studio Center has accepted my application for their Artist Residency Program. They gave me an Artist's Grant and a Work Exchange Award to help cover the cost. I'll be there in June 09 for 4 weeks. 

Marco Breuer speaks at SMU

I went to a wonderful lecture by Marco Breuer at SMU. I was not familiar with his work, but I heard that SMU was having some really good artist's lectures, so I went and discovered a really interesting artist. 

He works with photographic paper with out using a camera. Check out the link above to see his work.

Kitty Alice Snead at Janette Kennedy Gallery

Kitty Alice Snead, one of the best photographers in Texas is having a show at the Janette Kennedy Gallery. I wrote a review of the show for Art & Seek. Please note that the above photo has been cropped, but it gives you the flavor of her subject matter.

Kara Walker Has Spoken

I went to see Kara Walker talk. I took lots of notes so I could write about it for Art & Seek. I am glad I did because Ms. Walker was so scattered in her presentation it was hard to keep trace of the important topics. Check out the article.

Kara Walker Steps up

Kara Walker is giving a lecture at the  Modern art Museum of Fort Worth.  I posted a notice 

on Art & Seek.

Arthouse 5 x 7, The Dallas Show

I posted an article on Art & Seek about The Arthouse 5 X 7 fundraiser that is happening Aug 28th. It's a great event with lots of art and lots of art collectors behaving badly.

EASL Fundraiser

I am a big sucker for fundraisers, especially when the money collected goes directly to the people in need. EASL (Emergency Artists' Support League) is the prime example of just of what people can do for people in need. EASL has been around for over 10 years. They have helped so many artists, that if you live in Texas you probably know someone they have helped.

Above is my donation to this years Art Heist, August 23 at Artspace 111 in Fort Worth Texas. The title is Valves #1. It is part of a series based on the various valves located on or inside of the human body. It measures 10" X 8" and  is made from MDF and cast resin.
