Guest Blog Post on TimeForFrida

I was invited to do a guest artist blog entry on TimeForFrida today. Great way to start 2010!
In the words of blog author, KV Abbot: " The viewer can sense the manner that she moves the pen on the paper. A physical act. An expressive act."

First Night Real Gallery Exhibition

I participated in the First Night Real Gallery Exhibition this past week, showing up to 100 Congress Ave in the early mornings and working on my drawings until 6pm, Tuesday through Thursday.

The flyer:


And here I am working on a drawing next to my work,
right on Congress Ave!


It was a successful and fun event. I love it when viewers get to see the process along with the finished work. Thanks to everyone who came out!

Ballpoint Pen on Paper


This is a recently finished commissioned work. I enjoyed developing the little interacting moments in the bottom left, while still making the two larger interacting light images the focus. The balance of the piece was an interesting challenge, and I had fun synthesizing all the elements.

Infynit Hour

Yesterday, I had a live interview and art segment on the Infynit Hour on ChannelAustin about my art. They even put together this video!

Archival Ink Ballpoint Pen on Vellum

When creating this drawing, I kept in mind the view from earth when we look directly up at the night sky. We can faintly detect the distant glow of the milky way, but it's impossible for our eyes to take in every detail. However, with this image, it's as if the haze of the atmosphere clears and our eyes are free to travel through the star-scape.
