LJ Lindhurst: Right Now

Foil Bunny #3 in progress

Administrator — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 23:50:19 +0000

Quick update! here’s what I’m working on right now:

That little one on the right is called Sunflower (I know that’s a corny name, but that is what I think of every time I look at it). It’s a companion to Rusty Hole, which I just finished. They are both 12″ x 24″. I hope to also do a third one at this size, but I am still looking for just the right image. I think I will do another rusty hole, though. There seem to be a lot of those around…

The big one is Foil Bunny #3. This is actually the third panel in a triptych I’m working on. Here are the photos I’m working from:

This one is coming along nicely, and is a lot of fun to work on. I’ll post more progress pictures next weekend, so you can see how far I got on it this week.

Couple of new paintings

Well, the Glitch Generation show is ending next month. If you want to come down to DUMBO and take a look at the Green Foil Bunny in person, now is your chance! The next First Thursday gallery walk will be on June 3rd. Here’s a link with a list of all the participating galleries.

And for you non-New Yorkers: I’ve also got a show coming up in September at the Fort Wayne Museum of Art in Indiana. I’ll be showing the afore-mentioned Green Foil Bunny as well as Mack Truck Dog in their 2010 Contemporary Realism Biennial.

More to come! I have three new paintings in the works, 2 of which are 99.99999% finished… but then again, I always say that, now don’t I?

American Artist Magazine

Well now here’s a bit of something…

I’m featured in the May/June 2010 issue of American Artist. It’s a great little story about Acrylic painters and their techniques.

I sent a copy to my dad, and he cut out the pages and put them in a picture frame. Oh brother!

Nice mention in ALARM

Got a nice mention in ALARM’s review of the Glitch Generation show. Thanks, you guys!

Glitch Generation

Green Foil Bunny will be included in the Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC) Gallery’s Glitch Generation show, opening February 4th, down in DUMBO. If you’re in the area, come on down and check it out!

It’s About Damned Time (for an update)

Well I’ve gotten quite a bit done over the holidays. And I’m glad it’s January because January is always one of my most productive months. Must be the light…

Here’s a recently-finished small Marbles painting. I thought I was finished painting marbles, but on a whim I decided to crank one out on a small square canvas I had sitting around my studio. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed painting this one. I actually felt giddy at one point. (what the hell is wrong with me?)

I’ve also got a new piece in the works– here’s a shot of its progress so far:

This is obviously in an very unfinished, awkward state. This is the Long Distance Viewer down at the Brooklyn Bridge Park (if anyone knows exactly what those viewer thingys are called, please let me know).

Lock #10 gets honorable mention, and…

Administrator — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 21:28:15 +0000

So Lock #10 (below) just got honorable mention in the Utrecht 60th Anniversary Juried Art Competition. You can see it here on their blog. And if that’s not cool enough, it’s also going to be featured in the January and February issues of American Artist magazine.

Party on, Wayne!
