$25 Tuesday, Inaugural Post

4/10/2012

2 Comments

 
Twenty five dollar Tuesdays is a chance to own a small, original work on paper for just $25.  This week I will start with one of my own small abstract colored pencil drawings.  If you would like to purchase the piece, simply use this website's contact page, leave your information, and I will respond ASAP.  Only one piece will be available for each $25 Tuesday post, so it will go to the first person to contact me.  As with my Sunday Studio Shots posts, I will start with some of my own works.  As this blog gets further underway, I hope to transition into offering a curated selection of art for $25.  If you would like your work to be considered, please contact me.

Sunday Studio Shots

Photographs of artist studios are endlessly fascinating to me.  In many ways, they reveal more about an artist and their working methods than the work itself. This series of posts will give a glimpse of artists' working space and will hopefully shed some light on their working method.  For convenience, I will start this series with some images of my own studio in Tucson, AZ.  Over time, I hope to build a collection of studio shots from a curated selection of artist.
