I am honored and excited to be participating in this amazing event, with amazing artists, organizers and sponsors. I will be working, live, on a 300 lb sculpture, which will exist only for the week of Pow Wow.
Here are some pictures from the first 6 months of my new life in NY. These pictures are in no particular order, and for no particular reason. Lots of places, people, events, experiences were not documented, or edited out; this city moves fast, and at times wildly. But mostly life hasn’t change drastically, as I am keeping my nose to the grind stone, and putting in a lot of work in my studio. The first 6 months have been a lot of fun and very productive I look forward to the next 6 months. I hope to update the chronicles with pictures, and better images, more frequently, but we will see how that goes.
Life has been very busy and productive here in NY, and I am finally getting around to utilizing the Chronicles feature on the site to let you all know about 2 shows, that I will be participating in, in December. The first will be a show that I have participated in for the last 6 years: Fresh Produce at Anno Domini gallery in San Jose http://galleryad.com/. I will be showing several Etchings that I have been working on this past year, it is a very rare showing of some of my 2D work. Secondly, I will be showing some of my brand new sculptures, created in NY, at the Greenwich House Pottery, in their annual Made In Clay exhibition.
All of the details and information is below. I hope you can make it out to check out the shows, there is one for each coast, and if you’re in NY I will see you there.
Hope you are all well.
Best
Derek
