Small art is joyful art

Two openings this weekend in SF


Since I got my bigger studio space in 2022, I've really delighted in working big. Being able to create larger pieces has changed my process and and composition, and even helped me loosen up my work style.

But there's definitely still a place in my heart for smaller paintings! I've found working on the bigger pieces has also informed the little ones. So if you visit my studio, you'll usually see paintings of several sizes in progress.

I'm happy to share that a few of my small paintings are in two shows that open this weekend.

"Postcards from Paradise" at Voss Gallery is first up. For this exhibit, more than 70 artists created 8x10" pieces that celebrate the beauty of our surroundings and how we connect with one another. I have two pieces in the show, "Storms in Paradise" and "Sunrise in Paradise."

The opening party is Friday, May 26, 6-9pm and I hope you'll join me there. But if you can't make it, all the art is available online (and there's so many great affordable pieces, I think you'll love it!)


Next, opening on Saturday, May 27, 6-9pm at Helvella Art Gallery in Oakland is "Pride is Not a Crime", an exhibit showcasing the unique perspectives and experiences of LGBTQ+ artists. My painting "Stellar" is in this one - if you're interested in acquiring it, you can contact them directly at hello@helvella.art, or the art will be available online next week.

Both these shows will be up through June 24 - I hope you'll get a chance to enjoy them! And If you're interested in petite work, I have some in my small art section as well as sprinkled throughout my originals store.


Warmly
