This was the premier of this painting series, and I was very excited about the event. I met Wug while I served on the planning committee for Elegant Funk, a group art show by members of Smaller Indiana in August. Last Friday (November 7th), as part of Indianapolis Downtown Artists and Dealers Association (IDADA) First Friday gallery tour, wUG LAKU’S STUDIO & gARAGE hosted the opening of my exhibit, Action, Unification: A Perfected Communion.
Photography and thoughts
I would like to thank my friends and family for coming to my show as well as the gallery-walk regulars and not-so-regulars. Two aspects seemed to surprise visitors who had seen my work only via the website. They were surprised at the size and texture of my work. The paintings were larger than some had imagined. Also, most of the paintings are done on wood panels where the texture of the wood comes through into the painting to complement the implied texture of the bones.
Below, two visitors discuss the work while glancing through the program created by the gallery owner, Wug Laku. The program was a collection of series statements and artwork thumbnails.
Special thanks to Wug for hosting my artwork, creating the program, and for the great lighting!
If you missed the opening and would be interested in viewing my artwork you can schedule a private appointment by emailing Wug or calling 317-270-8258 (email preferred). Wug’s studio is just east of the interstate and Massachusetts Avenue near 10th Street and is open on IDADA First Fridays or by appointment.
