BIG FOOT is Back Home!

Dear friends,

The work of art that I created for the CRYPTID ENCOUNTERS group exhibition at the Hive Gallery in Los Angeles just arrived back home! It was a cool exhibition and I had fun creating this piece.

Not only do I love everything related to cryptozoology and mysteries, the process for creating this piece was fascinating and complicated. My long walks in the forest and the infinite hours I have spent with Robert Stack while watching Unsolved Mysteries my whole life did help for the inspiration, but creating the inner frame piece was something else! I wasn’t sure what to do but when I got the idea to recreate the iconic foot print that gave the Big Foot his name, it was clear that I had to do it! But how?

After I painted a woodland scenery with our elusive monster lurking in the background, I sculpted the foot print in Sculpey clay. I first had to make a flat, rectangular piece with the clay so that it would fit in the frame. For this I used a few sculpting tools and my bare hands. I then framed it and mounted it on the canvas with heavy acrylic gel and staples on the back. It took a while for me to figure out my approach with this one but I am quite fond of the final product and I hope you like it too!

The Forest For The Trees is Back Home

My painting “The Forest For The Trees” is finally back in my hands after having been in the group exhibition EVERYTHING BUT THE KITCHEN SINK at the La Luz De Jesus Gallery in Los Angeles!

I did make a small change on it upon receiving it, I repainted the clouds at the bottom. They bothered me a little bit and now I am much happier with it and I love it.

So here it is!

The Forest For The Trees

Every year, the LA LUZ DE JESUS GALLERY in Los Angeles has a group exhibition called EVERTHING BUT THE KITCHEN SINK (EBTKS) in which they feature over 100 artists exhibiting works of art that are 12" x 12". I am very happy to be apart of this year's EBTKS! For the exhibition I created a painting entitled "The Forest For The Trees", which comes from the saying "I can not see the forest for the trees", meaning to fail to see the whole picture of an issue and to get lost in the details. Here it is!

BIGFOOT

Dear friends, here is the work of art that I created for the CRYPTID ENCOUNTERS group exhibition at the Hive Gallery in Los Angeles! I had fun creating this piece. My favorite television show has always been, to this day, Unsolved Mysteries. So the topic of cryptid has always fascinated me. For this piece I painted a woodland scenery with our elusive monster lurking in the background, and for my inner frame I chose to create the iconic foot print that gave the Bigfoot its name. I sculpted the foot print in sculpey clay, framed it and mounted it on the canvas with heavy acrylic gel with staples on the back. It took a while for me to figure out my approach with this one but I am quite fond of the final product and I hope you like it too!
