I'll be heading to Seattle tomorrow to attend the opening reception for Two Sides to Every Story which is now on view at Gossamer Collective. I'm showing a large body of new and recent work in Laurie Kearney's gorgeous space (just wait til you see the ceiling). In an interview with Scene in Seattle Kearney names me as an artist who "has what it takes to go the distance with their career." Thanks Laurie! From the interview:
- SIS: Of all the artists you are working with right now. Who do you think has what it takes to go the distance with their career?
- Laurie Kearney: The only way to keep this answer short is to pick a medium and run with it: Painting- Currently, I'm showing work by Port Townsend artist Counsel Langley at Gossamer. Counsel has such a unique and authentic approach to her work, and isn't afraid to put her training to the test, which I really admire. I experience real joy watching the development of her meticulously explosive style, and I see her going farther than she might expect. I also see powerful artistic strength and growth in Cait Willis, Natalia Czajkiewicz and Adriana Phillips, to name just a few (really difficult to narrow it down!).
