Pearl Wings, 2014
The solo exhibition showcased 40 paintings, drawings and mixed media works. Following the opening, there were four music performances: Particlehead, Adam Price, Polecat, and Dario Ré accompanied by Phil Pintor on violin and Jackson Cate on bass.
Fiber artist/poet/designer Drew North co-curated the exhibition and MC'd the evening performances.
I would like to thank Isaiah of Luxe Productions for hosting and catering the event and for his relentless commitment to engaging the arts in Spokane. My partner Maryse, and our children Lucas and Willow for wadding hands-in-hand through every oscillating wave of life in the arts. My family for their continued support of my artistic pursuit. North for co-producing the event and for all of our collaboration over the years; he's the friend of my dreams. Thank you for everyone's generosity towards this event: Phil and Jackson for their musical collaboration, Alan and Jimmy for their expertise in sound, Jessica for photography, Nathan for the video documentation. Aaron and the rest of the Polecat crew for making the trip across the mountains. Dirk Lind and Adam Price with whom we shared the stage. Thank you to those who contributed ideas, equipment and support of all kinds. Thank you to patrons of the arts and those who fed energy to a truly magical evening.

This is an especially significant piece for my growth as an artist. This was my first hand-stretched canvas, first painting to gain published recognition and my first piece sold. I depict a lonesome clothesline in a strong, cold breeze. The implied figure is missing from the gusty, surreal, apocalyptic landscape and the hills and sky are being ripped from the scene.
Influenced by the Italian Futurists’ fascination with the dynamism and speed of machine technology, I wanted to portray the same dynamic high-speed movement but taking my subject matter from nature and the ever-popular life of simplicity.
