Back in Mid-December, Jonathan LeVine took a trip over to Williamsburg, to visit a few of our artists in their studios and check out their process on pieces being exhibited in our upcoming shows. We thought everyone might like to have a peek at the talented bunch in their personal work environments, have a look!…
Tara McPherson in studio, with a collection of books, prints, and toys. Many of which are her very own creations.
Multiple pieces resting on easels and spread throughout her studio to see, in varying stages of completion.
Here’s a closer look at the beginning sketch layer of her painting "Untitled" in our current exhibition.
Early stages of her "Fractioned Second" 5-panel piece, as well as her "Somewhere over the Rainbow" series.
It’s easy to see how themes and imagery in Tara’s Illustrations and poster designs carry through into her fine art. If you haven’t already seen her current exhibition, Lost Constellations, please visit the gallery or take a look at our images online, to see the final outcome of all her hard work!
From Tara’s studio, the next stop was not far away, to see Esao Andrews and his dog, Soybean.
At the time, Esao had completed all of the paintings for his January exhibition. All that was left was the frames.
After visiting Esao Andrews, Xiaoqing Ding was next. She had also completed her work for their 2-person show.
Here you can see Xiaoqing with her lovely pastels, created for our 2-person January exhibition Separate Lives. If you haven’t seen it yet, please check out their excellent work in our Previous exhibitions page!
