Getting ready for ArtWalk 2010

If you are in the NYC area, be sure to hop a subway and swing by Sterling Place this weekend, June 5-6, 1-6 PM. I'll be showing as much work as I can squeeze in this lovely home decor and gift shop at 363 Atlantic Avenue, between Hoyt and Bond Streets. I am definitely a masochist... as if I don't already have a lot of paintings to sell that are framed and ready to go, I gave myself a goal of painting six new mini-paintings (6"x8") just over a week ago so that I'll have some well-priced, potentially impulse purchase items. It's been kind of intense painting these, but the need for speed has forced me to really focus on the abstract qualities of each painting. They've turned out to be a lot of fun.

I started with a commercial doorway in my studio neighborhood and one in the residential Park Slope. This gave me the idea to focus on doors (not very original, I know). Here they are:

Stoop and awning

I'm a little behind in adding these and the other 4 in the works so far to my website, but hopefully will get to that just before the ArtWalk... or not!

Hope to see you this weekend!
