Summer Post 1

Graduation and summer have arrived. I graduated in May. I received the OVAC outstanding student award. You can read about it here.

It was a great honor to be chosen for the award and it made me very happy. I used some of the award money to purchase canvas, paints, an easel for my studio, and a black and decker matrix with router attachment.  It was a great way to end the school year.


I have been working on the small cow head. I will post in progress photographs of the mold making process soon. I thought today I would post some in progress photographs of my newest cow painting that I have been working on. It is still no where near completed as I took an extended break this June to move but now that my new studio is all set up I have begun work again on it.

  

So there are some various in progress shots of where I am and kind of my process this far. Most recently I had added green drool and worked on darkening the background a bit.

I will psot more Photos soon. Thanks for sticking with me through this absence! Glad to be back working. :)

Momentum OKC

 

Momentum was very fun. It was held at the Oklahoma City Farmers Market. There were several artists there that I knew from OSU. There was live music, food trucks, and lots of interesting people and art. My piece ended up selling which was very nice. I also got to attend an artist tax workshop.

I went right from Momentum back to finishing up working on pieces for my senior Capstone Exhibition at OSU.

This is the postcard for the OSU senior capstone show. It features images from all 9 of
the artists in the show.

Here is the back of the postcard for my show it features a close up of my more recent cow painting as well as the date and time of the reception.

The Show is Thursday March 27th from 5-7pm at the Gardiner Art Gallery at Oklahoma State University. The work will be up until April 4th so go check it out if you are in the area. :)
