Arden Gallery is featuring my work as part of a three person group show this month. Below is an image from the show. Also, I'm working steadily toward my solo show at George Billis Gallery in L.A. that opens at the end of March. I'll post images for that show soon....

November 2011

New work is now on display at the Stewart Gallery, in Boise, Idaho. Obsolescence, a show that opened there November 5th and runs through January 4th, included five of my pieces. This new piece, below, is representative of the rest of my work in the show.

August 2011

-The George Billis Gallery in Culver City (Los Angeles) has just offered me a solo show that will open March 31st of 2012. The gallery claims to have come across my work repeatedly over the years- the most recent publication of my work to have piqued their interest was the spring edition of Studio Visit Magazine, in which I had a two page spread.

I'm super excited to finally have my work represented in L.A. The George Billis Gallery has a great reputation. It has galleries on both coasts- the other being in Manhattan's Chelsea Art District. George Billis has also spearheaded the Red Dot Fairs in New York and Miami.

-I have also been asked to show in November at the Stewart Gallery, a great little gallery in Boise, Idaho. The owner, Stephanie Wilde, is an artist with many great collections under her belt, some of which overlap with my own. The show is called "Obsolescence." I plan to include some of my lonely toy pieces in the show- much of this theme in my work is a result of the forgotten toys that have been rendered obsolete by my kids.

-Just received the 7th edition of Elephant Magazine, an art mag from London. It contains a six page interview with me and several images of my work. I actually have proof that someone has cracked open the magazine and read the article- I recently got an order from the U.K. for a print of "The Library."

May

-My solo show, "New Works", opened May 6th at Arden Gallery in Boston. I had a great time at the opening, met interesting people, enjoyed some sales, and really look forward to working with Arden over time. All signs point to a long, fruitful relationship. It's great to be showing in such a cool city, too. If you happen to visit Boston this year, please drop by and check out the gallery and my work.

March

-Elephant Magazine in London, an art magazine distributed worldwide by Frame Publishers in Amsterdam, will be featuring an interview with me in the next issue, due out April 18th. According to Elephant, the goal of the magazine " is to put all visual art forms (contemporary, commercial, moving, 2D, 3D, etc.) on an equal footing and look at them from a fresh perspective." I'll provide a link to the article once it comes out.

-The Hollow Earth Society in Brooklyn have curated a show in Brooklyn at the Observatory entitled Retrofuturology. My piece, "Together, Forever," was included in the show.

-My work was just selected for Communication Arts' Illustration Annual. Communication Arts has the widest circulation of any graphics magazine- I feel very honored to have made the cut! The piece selected was "Mr. Answers" (below).

November 2010

-I'm now represented on the East Coast by Arden Gallery, in Boston. They have a handful of pieces that I sent them over the holidays. I've corresponded with Arden for several years now about showing my work- within the past couple of months, all the stars alligned to finally make that possibility a reality. I'm very excited to show with them- they have a great location on Newbury Street in Boston and their extremely amicable, uber-professional staff is great to work with. I have a solo show with them in May. Below is a new piece that will be part of the show.

October

-My work was selected from a pool of roughly 1000 applicants by Beth Venn, Senior Curator, American Art at The Newark Museum, for Studio Visit Magazine. Studio Visit is a publication by Open Studios Press, also in Boston. This is the second time my work will appear in Studio Visit- I'll have a two page spread in the Spring 2011 Edition.

-Mr. Answers, pictured above, was included in a book by the actor Rainn Wilson, entitled Soul Pancake: Chew on Life's Bigger Questions. Rainn Wilson plays Dwight Shrute on "The Office." The book was published in conjunction with his site, soulpancake.com. Mr. Answers received a full page in the book.

-.default magazine, an online Turkish art and design magazine, has featured my work in the January issue. The eight page article can be seen here.

- I have finally gotten together all the images from the sculptural installation that we created for Burning Man 2010. The experience of making and installing such a large piece in a medium totally foreign to me was intense, yet extremely rewarding. Below are a couple of photos that I think do the installation justice. Looking forward to bringing it back to Burning Man in 2011.
