An opening tonight at the Jen Tough Gallery in Santa Fe features a bevy of NM artists, and I'm in that mix.
H6 (vein) - or Harbor 6 from 2014 is my contribution to this group show.
There have been many recent signals pointing to - or eliciting from inside me - a kind of urgency to reignite a dormant engine of production but even more so, of exploration.
Even typing this post is another tickle on a comatose toe as I reflect on the source of these Harbor Paintings and ecosystem of thought and impulse in which I was immersed.
Don't get me wrong, I've continued my tinkerpassion, but my mind space has often been bent more toward problemsolving at the job - imagining possiblities at the job than on those activities back on the home/making machine front. Somehow I only this week, but a couple of pieces together upon waking from a dream. The blueprint exists. It's now up to me to but on my big boy tool belt and get to hacking away.
Reflecting back on this body of work, I just had occasion to watch the trailer I created for the original exhibit for the first time in many years. It's probably one of my 2 masterpieces.
