Studiomates

After being out of the studio for a bit (home 5 days for Thanksgiving break, hectic schedule, lots of skating practices, and you know...life), I was relieved to get my butt back to the Distillery this week. Naturally, I got all the way to Southie and realized I'd forgotten my keys. But, lo and behold! A light glistened from within the building and I was able to call up to my studiomate, Corey Corcoran, to let me in (the heat was on so high he had to crack a window...thanks, Distillery!) Once safe inside, Corey let me borrow his digital camera to take some shots of work that I had not been able to share yet. Corey saves the day again! Being an artist without a digital camera is not only inconvenient, but totally ridiculous at this point in history. I am working on this.

Here are a few shots of some work from my Invasive Species series. I just made that name up, but I think I might stick with it. This is me fumbling around helplessly with oil paint for the first time in years. Also, I have questionable digital photo editing skills. More to come!

Oh, and the moral of the story: Studiomates are awesome!
