Sally King Benedict + Kate Long Stevenson at Hidell Brooks Gallery

Starting this week with lots of art to enjoy.

I am excited to share the preview of the upcoming Hidell Brooks Gallery show featuring two of my favorite artists.  

They are both highly collectible so word to the wise…I you want it, call Hidell Brooks Gallery ASAP because these beauties will sell often before the show opening.

i wanted to create a body of work that blurred the line between figurative portraits and abstract landscapes.  they exemplify the bits and pieces of our photographic memories that reminisce on different places and times and the state of mind they put us in.

variations on an untitled theme

It’s important to me that my paintings have a subject, despite how non-subjective some can seem. with my nude paintings, the figure is the vehicle that invites you to discover the true subject: the way it was painted. the abstracts have just skipped that introduction, altogether, but they’re still about something–music, tempo, motion and emotion. it all comes from a feeling, but then the challenge is not only to translate that to the canvas but to have it make sense, compositionally.
