I have a handful of paintings and a few drawings at the show. I'll show a couple that I've had, but a few of the paintings are so new they're sticky. I'm totally geeking out that I'm having a show in NYC. I helped take down the last show, UNDERGROWTH, when I dropped off the stuff last night to hang for the opening this Thursday. I loved standing on the loading dock across from the enormous Brooklyn Bridge strut moving a big art installation. That neighborhood is spectacular. I know people bag on DUMBO, I can see the pure bred spensive dogs and shit too, but it's so pretty I love it. If you can make it to the show, we'll be heading out for drinks after somewhere around the corner. I'll tweet where we are.
