Focus

September 30, 2016By AlecNew Work, Painting No Comments

Along with streamlining this website I’m feeling a necessary consolidation of my artistic practice. How can I shift my process to produce a result that has a more focused purpose?

Expression Of Speed

September 29, 2016By AlecSculpture, New Work No Comments

    I was excited to be invited to Houston Berry’s curatorial debut “Expressions of Speed” at Wonderland SF this summer.

  Here’s a detail of a piece just completed and varnished. It’s so satisfying to get back to larger paintings. The background is one I’ve painted before but much smaller. One of my favorite corners in the Tenderloin.   Acrylic on canvas.

New Work for Summer 2016

September 28, 2016By AlecNew Work, Painting No Comments

‘La Casa Cosmica’ was painted for the 6 Year Anniversary show Simply Frida at Wonderland in San Francisco. All works we’re naturally tributes to Frida Kahlo and I wanted combine the look of atomic era “propaganda” art with a space background and morphing Frida’s iconic hair flowers into a bloom of nebulas. Opens July 16th … Read More

  Stoked to get my hands on a fresh copy of Statements Magazine Volume 3 with my art on the cover plus a six page interview inside. I think the magazine is mainly available around SoCal but I’ll drop some stacks around SF. Thanks to @rrussell240 @sambernal
