Opening Night at My Show, The Arrow That Flies By Day

Open through January 21.

Almost Done

This painting called The Ladder of Divine Ascent will be on display at my upcoming show at the Pablo Center at the Confluence in Eau Claire, WI, starting November 17th.

Some Recent Progress

Here are some details of the current work. The second pic shows at left the underdrawing of what will be a part of a cathedral. The goal is to complete this work by early summer.

Progress

Here you can see some of the hundreds of pilings that are being added which will eventually support the main structures which I’m working on now. Using blueprints, the idea is to mimic in a relatively accurate way the construction of sections of a large gravity dock such that are found on the Great Lakes.

New Project

4′ wide by 6′ tall on canvas. Another 3D work which will incorporate built wooden structures based on industrial scale docks as once found on Lake Superior. I’m utilizing hundred-year-old blueprints for their construction. This work will focus on time and to some extent, cycles.

Ruining and Dressing the Dock

As you can see, I burned down a section of the structure and have begun to “dress” or decorate it with streamers and tags. Things will change considerably as I reach the end of this painting.
