i made this collage for the recent book published by James Fuentes Press that focuses on the painting ‘And: Is’- it includes photographs, process shots, studio log notations and quotes from others - text excerpt: “Both in and outside the studio, I’m continually photographing encounters of momentary and minor events in everyday life, forming a collection of different kinds of time. Although I can never photograph what it is, my photographs are another way of making notes, and work with the notebook drawings and notations to guide the paintings” —- arranged here chronologically documenting the evolution of the painting "And: Is"

Created to accompany my first solo exhibition with James Fuentes, 2009, this book reproduces the final remainders for the three paintings in the exhibition, with contributing text by artist Matt Keegan.

I organized this group exhibition of 12 artists that push the associative power of color, material, structure and form through un-pure abstraction. CLICK ON IMAGE FOR PRESS RELEASE
