CSArt Colorado

This past winter I was one of 18 artists chosen to participate in the 2013 season of the Community Supported Art Colorado program (CSArt).  You can see the list of participating artists here and read more about purchasing a share here.

I will be creating a limited edition screenprint for shareholders.  My work will be a part of the Fall Distribution Event on Thursday, October 17, to be held either at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art (BMOCA) or at the Denver Botanic Gardens.

Shares are going fast, so snatch one up soon!  The first Spring Distribution Event is on May 16 at the Denver Botanic Gardens.

From their website:

Denver Botanic Gardens and Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art are proud to present Community Supported Art Colorado (CSArt Colorado). Modeled closely on Community Supported Agriculture (CSAs) programs that link local crop growers with local consumers, the CSArt program connects local artists with local art lovers through a buy-local, share-based membership. Shareholders will receive a total of nine original artworks from nine local artists throughout the 2013 season. Selected by curators from Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art and Denver Botanic Gardens, the featured artworks will be in a range of media and allow for people to easily discover artists. CSArt Colorado will host three distribution events throughout the season. Distribution events will be exciting occasions where shareholders will meet the artists, mingle with fellow art enthusiasts, and pick up three pieces of art for their collections.

I have a print in the 23rd Parkside National Small Print Exhibition in Kenosha, Wisconsin.  The exhibition was curated by my mentor and friend, the AWESOME John Hitchcock.  The opening reception was on April 6th and the show is up until July 19th, so if you find yourself in Kenosha stop by!

One of my most favorite artists and a constant source of inspiration.

upcoming shows

I have works in two upcoming printmaking exhibitions, one here in Denver and one in Iowa.

The Print 528.0 exhibition opening reception is on Friday, February 1 during First Fridays in Denver.  My friends and fellow artists, Catherine Chauvin and Fawn Atencio, are also showing work, so come out and support us if you're in the area!

jaydan moore

Just had to do a quick post about my friend, fellow artist, and former grad school confidante, Jaydan Moore, who is currently an artist-in-residence at the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft.  His work and studio practice were just featured on HoustonPBS, and I am so proud I had to share it here.  HE IS AWESOME.

material engagements

The RedLine resident artist group show, Material Engagements, curated by Harmony Hammond, is currently on view until the end of the month!  We had a lovely opening reception at the end of October and have had a couple of write-ups.  Read about the show here and here.

I showed four new 30" x 40" screenprints on paper:

Closely Knit (Bluebell)

Closely Knit (Aster)

Closely Knit (Sunflower)

Closely Knit (Sweet Pea)

RedLine residents

Just a brief introduction to the new class of RedLine resident artists!  See the full blog post here.

dana schutz and new work

Here's a sneak peek of some new prints (on paper!) that I made for our upcoming group show at RedLine, Material Engagements, curated by the artist, writer, and curator Harmony Hammond.

In other news, Dana Schutz was in residence at University of Denver this past week and a half.  Her exhibition of works on paper at the Denver MCA opened last week, and her big ten-year survey opens at the Denver Art Museum in November.  While on campus, she made some monotypes in the printshop with Catherine Chauvin.

news!

Lots of changes around these parts....

One quick bit of good news is that I am now a resident artist at RedLine in Denver, Colorado!  I'm looking forward to many exciting opportunities in the next couple of years, starting with a group exhibition in the RedLine gallery that opens at the end of October.  More on that later....
