Sweet Meats and Sour Grapes

The Final Touches

Finally I'm getting things tied up for the Space 242 show. I'm now making sure everything is framed and cleaning off fingerprints and scratches. Above is my piece Dark Heart, or Fall Foliage, I have not really decided on the name yet.

More Work For Space 242

I've been doing a ton of new work recently. I'm almost done with a short cat-story series that I will be showing at Space 242 in Feb. I've also been working on some 12" square paintings for a show in NYC in Jan. Below is a little preview and some process images of my most recent paintings I will be posting precess images shortly for a 3-d wolf head I'm working on...

Sweet Meats and Sour Grapes

FEBRUARY 27 THROUGH MARCH 20, 2009 JENNIFER LEWIS & AMANDA CLARKE

They have posted the add for the show on the Gallery 242 website!! http://www.space242.com/node/29

Almost Done

Here are some more images of my piece "The Little Things". It is almost finished, I just have a few touch-ups to do.

New Pieces

Here is a little preview of the paintings I am working on for the Gallery 242 show in Feb. So far the title is Sweet Meats. Above is a picture of some tiny unfinished woodland themed pieces, they are all under 4". This is a pencil sketch on Bristol that I'm starting to paint with acrylics, on the right is a cute plastic frame. The title of this piece is "The Little Things", a girl is opening an acorn to find a grub. I have been working on this painting for ever, oils take so long to dry. I think this is about a 12" square piece, a little cat carnival.. the frame I have for this is amazing! Enjoy the preview.. More updates to come

Infinity Squared

"Infinity Squared" at the Distinction Gallery. The show will be in December and the add should be in the December issue of Juxtapoz as well as featured on their website. I will have two 8" by 8" pieces in the show.

Mail Me Art Book

The Mail Me Art book is available for pre-order! I'm not exactly sure if my work will be in it but I hope so. It should be cool: [link] and there is also info on the exhibit if you are in the U.K. Oh, and the link to the book may be on the uk Amazon website, but you can just search for Mail Me Art on the us Amazon site and it will be cheaper (not in pounds).

Winter Shows

Open studios was a huge success, the weather was beautiful there was just the right amount of fall chill in the air. Tom's brother brought two gallons of fresh cider and a hand-full of farm fresh apples -Yum! I just sent out three pieces (Eclair, Fighting Bears and a cute little nurse) to Monkeyhouse for the Itty Bitty Art Show. Next week I will be sending out my two pieces for the Infinity Squared show. The show is in December at the Distinction Gallery. Keep an eye pealed for the add in Juxtapoz! A few weeks ago I got invited to do a show at Space 242, opening Feb 27th (save the date). This show should be really amazing.. I have some great ideas for new pieces!
