You can bid on paintings by 100 local artists, including myself. (I'll always consider myself a local!) Please support, what I consider to be, one of Wicker Park's cultural institutions!

Books and Texture Samples Now Available!
Posted: 2008-06-16 20:57:13
For those of you who have seen my work in person may begin to understand my frustration with the lack of textural translation that a photograph doesn't quite convey. I always encourage everyone to please see them in person if possible! Since this isn't always an option, I'm now offering to send you a free texture sample if you'd like to get a better idea of the work.
That being said...I was quite surprised by an overwhelming number of requests for copies of my new portfolio at The Artist Project this spring. I now have copies available for $40. The hardback book with high-gloss dust jacket contains 30 images of some of my favorite pieces. Although I'm not currently set-up to accept payment through my site, please email me if you are interested in purchasing a copy or if you'd like the aforementioned texture sample!
Enjoy your summer! More from me soon!
