LJ Lindhurst: Right Now

First of all, a big thanks to everyone who came out for the AGAST Open Studios tour–we had literally thousands of people come through. I met so many nice people; I can’t begin to tell you how great it was.

OK, now back to work. here’s the progress so far–but this one is coming along pretty quickly. It should be done in the next week:

AND…I’m thinking about painting one of these two next, before doing a couple more Marble paintings. If anyone wants to vote on which one I should do, I’d love to hear it…

This one?

Or this one?

A quick note:

Next Saturday and Sunday, October 18 & 19, from 1-6pm, I will be participating in the annual AGAST Open Studios Tour.

This is an annual tour of the artists’ studios in the Gowanus area, and over 150 artists will be opening their studios to the public next weekend I’ve done this tour for the past three years, and it is a lot of fun and quite well-attended (there were over 3000 people who came through last year). It’s fun, free, and kid-friendly…

You can check out the map and see the other artists who are participating at The AGAST Web site.

So drop by and have a glass of wine with me–I’m in the building at 94 9th Street, between Smith and 2nd Avenue (about a block from the Smith/9th Street F/G subway stop).

Hooray! Here’s the final, finished piece:

Marbles #3 (small), 2008
24″ x 30″ Acrylic on canvas

…and I just started the next one–Marbles #4. This one is already fun…

ALMOST finished! Actually, most of you probably won’t see much difference between what you see in this photo and the final, finished version. But there’s a lot more detail and blending that still needs to be completed.

And a detail:
