Last Breath of Summer - PRISMA Collective Group Show at Subtext Gallery

This Saturday, July 19th is the opening to "Last Breath Of Summer" at Subtext Gallery in San Diego, California. This is a group show of select PRISMA Collective members. Love showing with my fellow PRISMA art friends! The show is curated by PRISMA group founder and fellow artist Kaspian Shore.

Here is a little bit about our group and info via Subtext Gallery.

"PRISMA is an international artist collective of thirty creatives, founded by Kaspian Shore in November 2011. In their second group show at Subtext, a selection of artists from the PRISMA Collective have come together to bring a touch of sentimentality to their latest exhibition, Last Breath of Summer. Think of the last few rays of sunshine before the arrival of autumn, a touch of gold and fading warmth, a memory of long nights by the sea, of playing hide and seek in yellow wheat fields. Last Breath of Summer is a melancholy goodbye to the high of the year, celebrated by artists Tom Bagshaw, J.A.W. Cooper, Nicole Gustafsson, Martine Johanna, Edith Lebeau, Kelly McKernan, Lilly Piri, Audrey Pongracz, Kaspian Shore, Kelly Vivanco, Casey Weldon, and N.C. Winters."

"Summertide" is my contribution for the show. I love those warm summer nights with fireflies dancing in the night, and unnatural colors seem to make their way in the shadows and world. This is one of my favorite reasons why I love camping in the summers. I haven't made it out this year, but look forward to those last days of summer.

"This February, we are excited (and honored) to host the inaugural group exhibition from PRISMA, an international artist collective founded by painter and curator Kaspian Shore. Founded in 2011, the group currently supports 30 talented creatives, working in the fields of traditional and digital painting, drawing, illustration, and sculpting. PRISMA stands for a high standard in professionalism and almost exclusively features internationally renowned artists. They have built a tightly woven network and established good friendships within their collective that serve to encourage and promote their artists, representing the core of what PRISMA is about: stepping out of the isolation in the vastness of the art market."

PRISMA - Animal In Me show at Subtext Gallery

February 15th is the opening to our PRISMA Art Collective first group show (with the whole crew) at the Subtext Gallery in San Diego. It's a fun one and I love what everyone has come up with. The entire show is curated by Kaspian Shore who is also the founder of our PRISMA collective. Here is my piece on the lovely promo card designed by Tom Bagshaw.

My piece features a little white ferret (we had two ferrets at one time named Loki and Fenris, so I have quite a soft spot for the little creatures).
