Hey everyone! Got a bunch of posts coming up for you guys...some old work, some new work, some work that didn't work, etc.
Here is my latest series, completed this past Thanksgiving weekend for my IDEA Program's upcoming 10" X 10" show. We are all painting on these identical ten inch square panels and a local gallery/eatery is showcasing them. They're all on for an incredible price of $70 each. So come on down to the Cafe for Contemporary Art at 140 East Esplanade, North Vancouver. It's on from October 23-31. Our opening night is Saturday October 23rd from 6-8:30pm.
The theme of the show is The Age of Attention. I more or less see the age of attention as a negative thing (even though ironically I'm going to school for marketing and graphic design...basically how to sell things to people). But I do not agree with how much people are bombarded with attention grabbing crap day in and day out. So I did a series based on the "No Evil" iconic images. The subjects are attempting to block at least one route into their intelligence that all that stupid "attention" is trying to steal.
"Hear No Evil"
"Speak No Evil"
"See No Evil"
They all have a unifying pink border
Can be sold separately or together. I think they work better separately as while they are all very similar, they are also very diverse in style and composition.
All done with Acrylic, ink and black pen on wood panel.
