Sold Out @ Sullivan Goss Gallery!

While I was sculpting away in Philadelphia (November 2011 - March 2012), I found out that four of my paintings on display at Sullivan Goss Gallery in Santa Barbara, CA all sold! It was my second year showing in the gallery's "100 Grand" Show and my first clean sweep. Some pictures of the show and the work follow:

Opening night of "100 Grand".
Always a packed house at Sullivan Goss!

Love the Salon Style display of the work!
Curator Susan Bush does a remarkable job making sense
of the different styles, shapes, and colors.

That's my painting, "Tierra Contenta - Noon"

with the black frame straight ahead.

Apparently the patrons in Santa Barbara dig the landscape 

AND the urbanscape as all four  found new homes!

Big thanks to Susan Bush and the Sullivan Goss team
for believing in me and putting together terrific shows!

Always looking! In the Greek/Roman marbles at the Metropolitan.

This whole area used to be the cafeteria...now bringing out some impressive sculptures like this one of a youthful Hercules.

I draw this same sculpture every time I visit the Met! I'd like to have one.

Looks like Napoleon shot a cannonball thru this one when he occupied Egypt.

A closeup from a Hockney in the Modern wing of the Met. He grows on me more and more every time I see his work.

A view from a bench in Union Square, and reference for the little abstract sketch below...

"Union Square" / Oil pastel and ink on paper / 4 x 6"

"Danse (I)" / Matisse / Museum of Modern Art

"After Matisse Danse (I)" / Ink and whiteout on paper / 6 x 8". I approached this one by trying to draw the shapes in between the figures and their limbs instead of trying to draw the figures.

Background: Robert Motherwell's "Elegy to the Spanish Republic" at MOMA

Foreground: "After Motherwell's 'Elegy to the Spanish Republic' " / Oil pastel and whiteout on paper.

(The gentleman taking a closer look at the original had been sitting next to me for about 15 minutes as I was tackling this drawing. Not sure why, but love how this photo captures me working, an inspiring painting, and a patron in a great museum at the same time.)
