The Making of “Space in Between”– Guest Blog

March 8th, 2013

I have a small studio – it’s only 150 sq ft. This last week I completed the biggest painting I’ve ever done – a 60 x 40 inch megalith called Space In Between. The painting was completed in advance for my upcoming show at Gallery MAR, “Atmospheric Intentions” in conjunction with my mentor’s work, Shawna Moore.

Picasso– Ultimate Influence

February 10th, 2013

There is no doubt that Pablo Picasso is one of the most influential artists of all time.

Below, I have inserted two arts stories with the latest on the founder of Cubism. What do you think? Is Picasso the supreme creative figure of art history?

February 7th, 2013

We have received a beautiful new group of work from our most witty artist, Fred Calleri. The show title is “Super Sonic Snow Cones,” the title of the largest work in the show. This body of work is perfect for our snowy area, with winter fun themes and a new cast of characters, all painted in oil. Fred Calleri was the first artist who signed on with Gallery MAR in 2008, and 5 years later I am so very pleased to continue to show his work. If you’re in town, please join us this Friday the 8th from 6 to 9 pm for our artist reception on the gallery.

January 10th, 2013

At Gallery MAR, we always appreciate the opportunity to help our collectors hang their artwork in their homes, as a complimentary service. But occasionally we call upon the experts, particularly when it is a tricky hanging job. Or, when we need to hang into stone (that’s more than we can handle!). When we need an expert, we call Dave with Aisling Art Installation.

We have been very pleased to see a rush of last-minute gift buyers in the gallery this holiday season. And with two days ’til Christmas, now is the time to come in! Typically, the last of the gift-givers are men coming in, but this year I have been pleasantly surprised to see an equal amount of both men and women waiting until the final moments. To lend a helping hand, here are my top fine last-minute gifts of the season!
