one month to go
Today is July 1st. My solo show at Nahcotta opens one month from today. Let the hyperventilating begin! Something happens to me (and I think most artists) when I am working towards a solo show. I go a little crazy. There are so many paintings to paint: there is so much to say about my inspiration; my spiritual connection to nature. And about my materials, pastel and acrylic. It is not possible to say it all. I know this, particularly because each painting triggers ideas for so many others, but somehow, that does not keep me from trying.

Diebenkorn: The Berkley Years
I recently saw this incredible show while visiting San Francisco. I have always been a Diebenkorn fan and seeing a large body of his work was amazing. His color and paint are beautifully rich. There is almost an underlying tension in his very well considered compositions. There was so much to learn from this work and the accompanying video in which he was interviewed about his process. LOVED this show. I wish I could see it again!

A day at the Met!
LOVE, love, love the contemporary wing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I have seen this piece by Ellsworth Kelly many times, but this time I really looked at the thoughtful transition of hues from a cool yellow to a warm yellow. Wow.
Inventing Abstraction, 1910–1925 at MOMA

I saw a great show at MOMA this weekend: Inventing Abstraction, 1910–1925. It was so interesting to see and read about how some forward thinking artists of the day, shared ideas, interacting with one another as well as musicians and writers. Their explorations served to re-define “art”, opening countless doors for artists of the future.
