Show runs through Nov. 15th
Gregg Irby Fine Art 3725 Powers Ferry Rd, Bdg A Atlanta, GA 30342 404-941-9787
As I am sure you know, all of the pieces in the show will be new and original, and only available there. I have been painting so hard these past few months, there will be around 35 new pieces (maybe more? I don't know, I lost count :) Ok, thats it for me, I gott get back to painting now.
That second painting is quite different from what I've seen from you (I love it just as much, though). What did you use to make the blue marks? Is it paint too?
ReplyDeleteJoana, yes it is different! I love having a show b/c I can explore different ways of composing. I used chalk pastels for most of the lines and there is also silver foil.
DeleteLove them both! I so wish I lived in Atlanta right now. My boyfriend's parents actually just moved to Moultrie, Georgia, which if I'm not mistaken is about 3 hours away? Too bad we're not going for a visit until Thanksgiving; I'm sure your show will be killer.
ReplyDeleteWow! Congrats! I'm sure it will be a rousing success and all 35 pieces will be sold and loved in no time.
ReplyDeleteand we are having fun reconnecting with you!!!
ReplyDeleteI just love your work...so wish I could come! Seoul is just too damn far from ATL. Thanks for saying hello recently. It was an honor, really. ^^
ReplyDeleteAs an artist myself, I enjoy reading Philip Koch's sensitive writing about Edward Hopper and Andrew Wyeth, who along
ReplyDeletewith Whistler and Rothko, are my favorite American painters.
I don't live in the United States but have traveled and passed a short time there. But even with the little time spent
in your beautiful country, especially in small-town America, I can relate to some of the poetical feel that Hopper and
Wyeth had captured in their art, which is for me part of the attraction of their paintings.
Browsing at wahooart.com the other day, as I do now and then, I find a good selection of Edward Hopper's work,
http://EN.WahooArt.com/@/EdwardHopper ,in the
big archive of Western Art, that customers can order online for canvas prints and even hand-painted, oil-painting
reproductions can be made and sent to them.
Hopper's surrealistic and depersonalized world is there again. Timeless, yes, as it is still there now in the roadside cafes
and diners that I ate at all over America.
