Saturday Studio session
This weekend I spent the early part of my afternoon at Palette 22. I had a really nice time working on some new paintings. I started using my newspapers I brought back from India, and I’m making a few small guys while I’m an artist in residence at the restaurant. It was fun meeting and…

Where did the week go?
It’s Friday tomorrow and I realize I only spent a few hours in the studio this week. So sad, really. There will be a time when I will be able to be there regularly. This week I managed to start on a new painting. This will be the first larger one I’ve started since I’ve…

I’m in
This week has been so busy, but in a good way. I made it to the studio a few times this week and also started a new “job”. It’s not really a full time job, more like an artist gig to get out into the community. I’m now working as an Artist in Residency with…

A few months ago I exhibited in an art show that featured artists from all around the metro area. The experience I gained by being part of the show was amazing. In fact, I was approached by a few people to show and exhibit in other places because they had seen my work at Artomatic.…

A free weekend = art time
The past few weeks have been extremely busy, coupled with the typical wifi issues. However, I managed to create some little guys. I’m really enjoying using the Tamil and Hindi newspapers in my work to represent where I am. In no other way could I be more present in my art making than using these…

Hi from Chennai
Hi Folks I’ve been trying to settle in and make some art while here in Chennai. It’s been a little difficult. I’ve moved 3 times, and I’m about to move again (hopefully for the last time). I wish I could dedicate a space, but where there’s a will there’s a way. I only brought with…
