2011 Juried Biennial at the Cannon Gallery in Carlsbad

I was honored to have been selected to show in the highly competitive Cannon 2011 Juried Biennial!  Here are some scenes from the opening Jan. 29.  The show runs through Mar 18, 2011.  Click here for more info.   Some of the best regional art is being shown there so check it out!

My surrealists inspired "Exquisite Corpse."

 

Several strangers now have my drawing on their cell phones!  My friend Helen Wilson looks on.

My best buddies Ann and Donna showed up.

The opening was mobbed!

That crazy cat

Fun in my sketchbook! This began with layers of paint. I then transfered in a copy of my Detroit drawing (see my earlier blog) and a bird. Then I built up layers of paint and colored pencil.

More fun in Photoshop

My Family, My Self

My drawing - My Family, My Self - tortured in Photoshop.

Boot

Using graphite powder with turpinoid on vellum, at Helen's suggestion.  Great media!
Funny...this boot ended up looking as if it had been worn by my foot (which it hadn't). It should've been much longer!

Last Week's drawing

Nude in Photoshop

Scanned a recent drawing and layered it in Photoshop with a painting made from dye drips.
