At just over 4 1/2″ wide, this is the smallest “Absolute” painting in existence. However, don’t let the small-scale fool you. “Absolute: Certainty” has so much to say. With exposed painterly edges and remnants of the pencil drawing underneath, this is the first painting in the series to harken back to its creation. To learn more, scroll beyond the image.
The following is an open letter to my latest completed sketchbook. A funny, but serious reminder that the process of sketch-booking is one of private and professional thinking. It is a personal dialogue much like journaling. It is a necessary and far too often under-appreciated form of artistic expression that continues to be a golden standard in abstract brainstorming.
The newest ToeHead made its début on TV this week. It was my pleasure to join fellow artist, Jay C. Moffett & WTTE Fox 28’s enthusiastic Good Day Columbus hosts in part to promote my artwork & Ohio Art League’s annual fund-raising event. News personalities Maria Durant & Adam Slinger helped put the final touches on “Tempting” and tried their best to keep inside the lines. Scroll down for media link and final ToeHead.
The latest piece in my ToeHead series is called, “In Over Your Head”. This sketch has been in my sketchbook for a while now and it’s only now that I’ve found the right piece of wood for it. Reclaimed from the scrap heap at Columbus Idea Foundry, this piece of wood had just the right wood grain to give just the right added emotion to the piece. Click on the image below to see a close up.
