Where the Light Gets In - Brooklyn Bound

Image
  I am truly honored that "Where the Light Gets In" has found its new home in Brooklyn. My journey as an artist was deeply shaped by my time earning my Master’s at NYU, and there is something incredibly special about seeing my work return to the city that remains so instrumental to my creative history. In this oil on linen piece, I wanted to capture the magic of the bookstore—not just as a point of sale, but as a profound portal to knowledge and imagination. To me, booksellers and librarians are the dedicated custodians of these gateways. 📚✨ My practice has always been a struggle to deeply see and to grasp those elusive, ephemeral moments that shape our lives. Thank you @saatchiart and my new collector for giving this painting such a meaningful new home.

Exhibition Tour—Raphael: Sublime Poetry

Image
Join Carmen Bambach, Marica F. and Jan T. Vilcek Curator in the Department of Drawings and Prints, and Daniel Kershaw, Exhibition Design Manager, and Caroline Elenowitz-Hess, Research Associate, to virtually explore Raphael: Sublime Poetry, on view at The Met from March 29 through June 28, 2026. Dive into the artistic process of one of history's most beloved and influential artists. A true titan of the Italian Renaissance, Raffaello di Giovanni Santi (1483–1520)—better known as Raphael—matched ambition with lyricism to create works with both intellectual heft and emotional depth, a necessary skill in the complex political landscape of Renaissance courts. In his short life of only 37 years, he achieved such profound success as a painter, designer, and architect that he was regarded as the pinnacle of artistic perfection for centuries after his death. Raphael: Sublime Poetry is the first comprehensive exhibition on Raphael in the United States, bringing together more than 170 of the ...

  OC Folks! You are invited to an artist talk at the marvelous group exhibition "Love Is All You Need" at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art on Saturday, March 7, 2026 at 6:00 pm. I will be chatting about my painting "Pirates" Gallery open until 10:00 pm. Curator William Moreno Gregg Chadwick Pirates 24"x18" oil on paper 2025 Notes on “Pirates” In my oil on blue prepared paper painting "Pirates", it is April in Paris. At a café in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, a couple lock eyes in a knowing glance like pirates preparing a raid. Co-conspirators in the game of love. In "Pirates" I have created a surface where "ghosts of earlier ideas" remain which invites the viewer into a non-linear experience of time. In the wake of the 2025 fires, "Pirates" offers a narrative of resilience, community, and the enduring power of love—agape, familiar, and platonic—reminding the viewer that "art is a beautiful and necessary ...
