The Rots
Share
Slightly irreverently twisted The Rots are fun, twisted little creatures that I draw and paint and sculpt and felt.
Aaaaaaaannnnnddd...
Here's the next sneak peak for you!
This one is for Brassworks Gallery, and it was a kind of spur-of-the-moment exhibit after a series of last-minute cancellations and schedule changes. They're calling it "A Sudden Group Show" 🫨.
We got this.
WHAT: Conjuncture
WHEN: Opening June 13th
RECEPTION: 5-9pm PST
WHERE: Brassworks Gallery
I'll have two pieces there that are a little on the edge. Over the edge?
Doesn't matter.

This little guy is knitting away over at Cactus Gallery!
He's framed (see the additional photos) and hoping you'll adopt him just so he can organize your yarn stash.

Aaaaannnnddd....Here's another monster hanging around Cactus Gallery!
This is Frostbite. She started out as an ink and charcoal drawing for Rotty Halloween 2022 (see the second image). When I got to painting her, I thought she really needed some fur (she looked yeti-ish, and it looked cold where she was), and some texture to her skin.
I also experimented for the first time with the particles in the air, some in focus and bright; some blurry and softer. I like how it turned out.

ANNOUNCEMENT!
Working hard on the next show with Artburst Studios titled "WEIRD." It fits, right? I'll have five paintings available during the show, and I've included super close-ups of all of them here.
If you aren't familiar with Artburst, it's a quick (three day) online show that moves fast and furious. You'll need to make an account ahead of time (it's free) because once the show opens you don't want to be left in the dust behind the other buyers with the piece you've had your eye on already in their cart! Just go to https://artburststudios.com/ and the "CREATE ACCOUNT" button is right there with the Weird show announcement.
Here's their "How it Works" page:
