Very graphic and visual canvasses. The depth of field is amazing.

Chromatic Interactions
These enamel on aluminum panels are richly painted as if ripped from an automative plant, yet the remind of Joesph Albers and his color field work. Cool and very modern way to update the past. Check it out.

Mystery of Light
James Murray (pictured above with art collector Monica Welsh) at the Lyons Wier Gallery. It was great to speak with the artist in person and get a sense of his technique and process regarding construction of these amazing conceptual pieces that undulate in their inky darkness. Check it out.

Rainbow Girls
Amazing threadwork applied to canvas as well as the same ropey feeling applied to sculpture, delicate yet powerful. Check it out.

Very cool set of work created with pastry nozzles. The effect is sweet and rich, but the subject contrasts darkly with the painterly effect.Check it out.
