Evolutionary: 5 After 5 Sneak Peek

Today is the first day of the exhibition Evolutionary: 5 After 5 at the Washington State Convention Center. There are over 100 works on display. It's such a joy to be exhibiting with Louise Durocher, Gillian Theobald, Robert Hardgrave and C. L. Utley. I've had the great pleasure of working in proximity with them since 2007 and know they are top notch artists and people. I'm a better artist and person for knowing them. Please stop by and see a sampling of the work we have made over the past five years.

Evolutionary: 5 After 5

For the past five plus years, since August of 2008, I have had the pleasure of working in close proximity with four visual artists, Louise Durocher, Robert Hardgrave, Gillian Theobald and Claude Utely. Our studios inhabit a small and separate area of Building C Studios in Ballard. As a result, we have forged a close bond. Evolutionary: 5 After 5 is our first joint exhibition and represents a celebration of individuality and proximity in our artistic process. We would be pleased if you stopped by to see the exhibition and join us at the opening in February.

Gillian Theobald is a painter who has had a significant influence on me both personally and professionally. At the core of her practice is her strength as a colorist and her intuitive process. Gillian paints almost every day. The results of this dedication and talent are not to be missed. Lucky for us all that tomorrow night during First Thursday Art Walk in Pioneer Square, an exhibition of Gillian's new work will open at Linda Hodges Gallery.
