SVA gave me a scholarship and gift certificate to an art supply store. Every little bit helps :)
For me to claim that the current exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum is remarkable would be nothing new. Seeing in person Mueck’s larger and smaller than life sculptures of people {though more like replicas} and Ford’s enormous tounge-in-cheek animal watercolors is the only way to enjoy their grandeur. What struck me in addiontion to the work is the droves and droves of people who turned out for the show. It’s a great thing when so many folks, everyday folks with kids, are compelled to experience an artist’s work.
A side project I’m putting together is illustrating Craigslist. There are some, specifically in the Best Of section, that are charming in their colorfulness and absurdity. So if there are any in particular that you think are great, feel free to send me the link and I’ll put them on my list of condidates. thanks :)
The holidays have subsided. Missing friends, family, and my little boy…
