ARTICULATED GALLERY

Opening this Saturday, December 3rd, at the Articulated Gallery in San Francisco is a duo show with Dan Harding and Joanne Augustine entitled I See You See. The show is an exploration of inspiration, as Joanne’s photographs were taken by Dan and used as the basis for a new series of paintings. I have always been interested in the way that artists find inspiration, what draws them to create and what pushes them ever forward, and the idea that one artist was influenced by what another artist was influenced by is an amazing idea. The reception starts at 8 PM and will run until 11 PM, both artists have also flown out to San Francisco to be in person. This is a great opportunity to see some beautiful photography and painting in one place. Take a look at the preview images below, and then be there or wait it to show up online.

POST AMERICAN GOTHIC

Chet Zar has just added a couple of new prints to his online shop, one of which is his American Gothic inspired paintingPost American Gothic. The print is 11″ x 14″ on gallery wrapped canvas, signed and numbered in an edition of 100. The regular price is $125 but the print is on sale right now for $115. Love that idea that the print comes gallery wrapped alway, so all you have to do it pop it up on the wall no worries about framing.
