apr. 7 -Cande Aguilar

my husband and i went to a gallery show at Cohn Drennan on dragon street (the street with well established galleries in dallas) aaaand i found out about an artist whose work i LOVE. the artist's name is Cande Aguilar and his mixed media paintings inspire me and make me feel excited to go paint :) ..his paintings are confident and loose and fun to look at

apr. 20 hip hip hooray!!!

tonight i met with the curator of the gallery where i'll be having my first solo gallery show, YA! it's going to be at Mokah Gallery in Deep Ellum, (Dallas, TX) and will be up from the beginning of august until the middle of september, 2011. i'm thinking i'll name the entire show "sugary paint", but i'm not sure yet since i originally only reserved that name for 5 of my red and pink paintings (...it kind of well describes my whole body of work, thus far, though so we'll see, -i'll have fun thinking of possible names :) )anyways, i'll need to make about 4 more big paintings for it; i'm so excited about that because then the amount of new paintings, that reflect more of where i'm at now, will balance out my paintings from the past 5 years...it'll be a progression of this style of painting for me and i'm sooo excited!!! yip yip!
