I'm still obsessed with Florence...
Firenze Nightscape, Acrylic and Aerosol on Canvas, 24"x36", 2010
Propeller Show
Well, the Obscured Metropolis show went well and I want to thank everyone who came to see it. Here are some pictures from the opening and a link my painting's featured on on the Propeller website.
My girlfriend made all my frames from scratch and I couldn't be happier with them. That was definitely the best I had ever seen my work presented.
Impossible Promises
In other news, it was too ambitious for me to say I'd be done my uncle's commission by the end of the month-mainly because my new apartment hasn't worked out and I have to move again October 1st. If you're thinking of moving to Kensington Market or near it I would seriously advise against it.
Art Trip
On a more positive note I took a bus to New York with the Mrs. for a few days to get some inspiration.
We saw most of the big galleries/museums and we also saw the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art which had stuff by a lot big names; I hope the place expands one day because right now there's no space between any of the works nor is there between the floor and the ceiling.
This is by my current favourite painter: Alice Neel.
Installation shot from the Moma
I can fully embrace all of her work. She's great.
Even though I've been a nomad for the last while and haven't had room to paint I've managed to keep up some momentum with my comic. I'm a hair away from finishing the first issue. It will be about 15 pages.
