I’ve been invited to be part of an exhibit titled, “Fresh Start. Works in Progress.” at the Lawrence Arts Center in Lawrence, KS. This exhibit will feature partially finished works by area artists in celebration of the beginning of the new year. The purpose is to show not only new approaches and work that the exhibiting artists are taking & making in the new year, but also the process by which we work, including sketches, reference material, etc. It also falls on Final Friday so make it part of your rounds! Refreshments will be served.
Participating Artists: Molly murphy, Stephen Johnson, Nicolette Ross, David Loewenstein, Karen Matheis, Louis Copt, Angie Pickman, Jason Barr, Eric Dobbins, Jack Collins, Leslie Kay, Lisa Grossman, Jeremy Morris. Shannon White, Darin White, Yuri Zupancic, Jennifer Jarnot, Steven Graber, Juniper Tangpuz, Kenneth Kupfur, and Alicia Kelly
This is a quick little stop-motion animation (that doesn’t make much sense) that I made using my lightbox that I bought.. last year.. to make animations.. It’s been a few years (7, cough, cough) since I touched anything of the sort. It feels good to be doing something with it. Animation is, afterall, the way I got into cut paper art. There shall certainly be more to come. Check out my other animation, Turtle’s Escape, here: https://ruralpearl.com/blog/?page_id=454
Digital collage with cut paper elements. This is another test design I did for something awhile back that’s been sitting in a folder ever since. I kind of like the concept and might have to do something on a larger, more detailed scale.
Back in November, Kansas City’s The Pitch (weekly newsmag) asked me to use one of my works to go along with their feature for the Bizarre Bazaar in Lawrence. Here’s a snapshot of it..
