Winter Open Studio, Dec 1-2, 2012

Please join me at my Open Studio Saturday December 1 and Sunday December 2 from 11am to 2pm at Studio 330B, ICB Building, 480 Gate 5 Road, Sausalito. 70 artists studios will be open and there is free parking

I will be showing my latest series, Across Space and Time. The series continues my exploration of imaginary interactions of people from photographic images, this time expanding to include the tribes of the Omo Valley in Ethiopia. I was so inspired by these people that I'm going to visit them in 2013 for further inspiration.

I'm also trying to get the larger version of my 16 panel work completed. The existing piece is composed of 16 8"x10" birch panels.

I'm working on doing this same piece using 16 canvas panels, each 16" x 20". So far I've completed half of the panels. Will I get the rest completed by November 30?

And a final surprise will be two collaborative pieces painted by Thompetch (a six year old male Asian elephant) with me and Tom Russen. I'll be talking about the process at my show. You can see how the two pieces differ, depending on the artist who collaborated with Thompetch.

Hope to see you at my open studio, December 1 and 2 from 11am to 6pm. And I'll also be open Friday night from 6 to 9 pm. Address is ICB Building Studio 330B, 480 Gate 5 Road, Sausalito.
