I have the great honor of hosting my first fully-realized solo-exhibition of my work.
Having always had a strong attraction to portraiture with an emphasis on unique and intriguing faces, Freaks & Geeks will highlight 15 oversized portraits produced in mixed methods of painting and screen printing.
I’ve started to pair my poster art processes of screen printing with more traditional hand-painting but utilizing the computer for the initial output. So It starts in a machine, goes to a very organic process and then finishes with a half-hand/half-mechanical process of a screen printed layer. I’m intrigued by the juxtaposition of these distinctly different textures and how the pairing of them highlights their uniquely individual qualities.
