Sometimes the process can't be interrupted and you have to just go with it.
Painting has taught me to look closer.
As I moved through the motions of preparing for my upcoming solo show with @athenbgallery -an idea came up about the purpose of it and maybe even of all art exhibitions. It only made sense to open the floor to community conversations as well. Thanks to a partnership with @subaru_usa, I'm stoked to announce our lecture series "Say" which will take place during the month of October. Tap the link in my bio to check out the schedule and amazing line up of guest speakers.
I think it's good to celebrate small personal victories. Two years ago I took my first solo trip across the country to paint and camp. I didn't want to admit to anyone at the time but I was actually quite terrified. It was an important trip.
Today was fun and inspiring to have my work surrounded by so many super hero female painters. Thanks to @bedfordgallery for the invite to this spectacular show. Photo by @hashimotocontemporary 🤓
Today I'm driving out of the city to @bedfordgallery for the group show About Abstraction. The exhibition celebrates 16 Bay Area women painters, emerging and established who have worked in abstraction for years. There is no monolithic visual definition of abstraction, and this show provides a platform for a breadth of work that features precise, powerful lines, as well as gestural patterns. I'm proud to have my work amongst such an amazing group of artists. Hope to see you there! 3-5pm today
The water looked extra blue and there was no way I took it for granted. / Thanks @meesh_wei @npecor for your help gathering sticks today and @subaru_usa for the fresh ride. #meetanowner
