International Exhibition of Contemporary Works on Paper

June 13th, 2011

gallery shot

I’m wicked happy to be included in a beautiful show with some incredibly talented artists taking place this month at NYCoo Gallery. I entered two pieces, an etching and a monoprint, both done in Bruce Waldman’s class at SVA. Many thanks to Bruce and Miki Nagano. And thank you to everyone who came for the opening. Summertime + intimate space + many people = sauna gallery.

Jonny

Jonny Ruzzo, left, will be wrapping up his undergraduate studies at SVA this fall as a senior in the illustration department. (He is one of those illustrators that are rock stars before they’ve even graduated. But he’ll never admit it. He’s very modest.)

Brad

Brad Soucy has some beautiful pieces in the show completed during his first year in the  MFA Illustration as Visual Essay program at SVA.

Lindsay Sanwald ( below!) is an incredibly talented musician who asked me to make a T shirt design. Sales from the shirts are helping to fund the final touches on her new album, Heart & Lung, due out this summer.  Click here to take a listen, see when she is playing live, and buy a shirt to support!
