Untitled-Acrylic And Pencil On Canvas Portrait Of A Woman In Sepia Tones

$150

8x10" from my "paint another humanity series," showing the complex display and restraint of emotion through life-size portraits of women. all acrylic on canvas with finished edges, so they can be displayed unframed. i don't do commissioned portraits of people because i don't see right: the people i paint don't look like the people i'm painting. all my people are fake.

I graduated from Columbus College of Art and Design with a Fine Arts major, emphasis on painting. I've shown and sold work in galleries, shops and festivals in the area, as well as in Chicago and Cleveland. I founded and run Cross-Media Collective, a 501(c)3 non-profit to help artists and art groups get the assistance they need, be it grants, sponsorship, or just general aid with permitting for events. We are currently fundraising for a permanent location for our events, and a gallery/workshop space, as well as a museum of miniatures, my pet project. You can read more about that at cross-mediacollective.org and columbusminiatures.org (currently under construction).

My work is very varied, running the gamut from painting to sculpture, realistic to abstract, massive to tiny. I get bored easily, and inspired easily, and no one would guess that everything I make comes from one person. Most of my work tends towards the figurative, or the anticipation of figures; I make miniature food, furniture and rooms…okay, and figures. My paintings are generally acrylic and almost always figurative. My sculptures are clay, and, again, figurative. I'm a people person, aesthetically, anyway.

I've spent the past three years renovating and decorating a very large, very old, very neglected house. My work with minis was beneficial in planning and executing the look of the house, and though I have no training in interior design, I love decor and architecture, as is evident in my miniatures, and would like to find decorators to work with, perhaps to commission a certain piece for a certain room, or work with individuals who just want an artistic eye or someone to shop with when redoing a room. Sometimes a fresh view or a second opinion is crucial.
