Chicago Ave. L Stop Photo at South Loop Acupuncture

Chicago Ave L Stop, digitally enhanced photograph, 2006


My photograph, Chicago Ave. L Stop, is now up as part of a show at South Loop Acupuncture. It was selected through my representation by Chicago Art Leasing. The image is part of my colored cityscapes series.

The Chicago Ave. L Stop on the Brown Line is one of my favorite stops. Located in River North, it's near the gallery district and a block away from where I worked my first job in the city.

More art headed to Transistor

I had a nice studio visit this morning from Andy, the owner/curator of Transistor. He selected some more pieces that he'll be placing in his shop. It's a very cool store selling music, books, electronics and art by local artists. They also host events, live music and readings along with classes and workshops. Located 3819 N. Lincoln Ave near Trader Joe's.

Below are the new pieces that will be hung at Transistor:

Water tanks going to Rochester 6x6 show

I'm shipping these five small pieces off to a show in Rochester, New York for the annual 6x6x2012 show at the Rochester Contemporary Art Center. Looks like it will be a good show and works will be for sale both at the art center and online. Runs June 2 - July 15.


These are part of my water tanks studies series. All are acrylic and oil paint marker on canvas. 6x6 inches square, 2012.
