NCAC Fine Art Show

I entered a few pieces into the North Country Arts Council Fine Art Show which opened at the State office Building in Watertown, NY last night. I'm proud to say that 2 of my pieces were awarded 2nd and 3rd place in the Mixed Media category.

Menagerie

Organica

“Menagerie” placed 3rd and “Organica” placed 2nd. Not only that, “Organica” sold on opening night as well! These two artworks as well as my “Men of Historical Significance” collage will be on display through Nov. 17th. If you're in the area stop in and check them out as well as all the other wonderful work. You can also check out this set on my flickrstream for more detailed views of these pieces.

Men of Historical Significance

Artists Trading Cards (ATCs)

So, for a change of pace I've decided to try making a few Artist Trading Cards.

I made two series, the Standard American Encyclopedia (circa 1937) series, (“Goat”, at left is a part of this series) and Strange and Stranger. See them all at my flickr page.

UPDATE: I'm working on assembling these into a collage for the “Small” show at the High Falls Gallery in Rochester. Anybody local to Rochester should check out the gallery and the show, it's an open call with only a $15 entry fee.
