Jeffrey Place Installation Photos

As promised, here are images of my work at The Lofts at Jeffrey Place in Columbus, OH (the top two images). So cool to see the large work in a context where the scale is perfect.

Commercial Installation? Corporate Acquisition?

I don't know what to call it, but I'm very happy about it! Jeff and his excellent team of consultants at Terra Gallery have placed some of my paintings in The Lofts at Jeffrey Place. Check it out! Two pieces were installed earlier this week, and I hope to have photos of the actual installation soon.

Moving Mayhem

Well, mayhem may be too strong a word. Nevertheless, moving is quite disruptive, whether household or studio, and at present I'm doing both! The previous studio was great, but had become too much of a commute when we moved house a couple years ago. The newest location gives us room for both home and studio, so once all the transactions are complete (i.e., sale of previous home) there will be quite a savings in gas, rent, and utilities. Finally relocated all the studio stuff by the end of July (a BIG thank-you to everyone who helped). The new place is a fixer-upper, so there's plenty to do to get both living and working spaces functional. Most of the studio is still in boxes, but I have managed to begin setting up the office/watercolor area and have even started a couple new pieces. Painting progress has been slowed by the onslaught of basement-soaking rains, which have kept me busy pushing around water, placing fans, and researching site drainage strategies. Here are some photos of the emerging office/watercolor room. The woodshop is in the basement, and not yet fit for viewing, but before the rain it functioned well enough for me to build the work surface shown in the photos. And what studio is complete without a supervising cat?

Opening Reception at Terra Gallery

Columbus, Ohio's "gallery hop" on the first Saturday of the month is quite an event - at least that was certainly the case on July 5th - the weather was perfect and folks were out and about all through the evening. Consequently, we had a very encouraging turn out at the opening reception of my show at the Terra Gallery. The work looked great, we sold two of the new pieces, and I met many interesting folks, so it was quite a successful evening. Many thanks to Jeff and his staff at Terra for all their hard work; to Ken, Todd and Sherry for their presence and support; and to everyone who visited the show.

Bill Mayr's article in the Columbus Dispatch profiles gallery owner Jeff Hersey, and also includes some images of my work - you can see pieces from the Pilgrimage Year series behind Jeff in the photo of him in the gallery, and there's also image of Meet in the Middle (curiously in black & white).
