Portrait of Matt Hardwick Painting His Self Portrait

This is a photo I took of our pond this winter - there is a patch of snow on a rock that looked like the eye Matt is painting in his portrait below.

Press from "I Paint Therefore I Am"

Here are some of the press clippings from the show I curated at 910Arts show.

"I Paint Therefore I Am" at 910Arts in Denver

In my first serious curatorial effort, I introduce a group of artists who are in the early stages of showing professionally.

The artists of “I Paint Therefore I Am” share a strong visual sense, an individual personal view of the world, and clarity about image and color. These artists have each studied with me, and it has been my joy to watch them emerge as accomplished, mature painters.

If you live in or near Denver, please join us for the opening of "I Paint Therefore I Am" at the 910 Arts Event Center, 910 Santa Fe Drive, on Friday evening, March 5, from 6 to 9 PM.

In addition to the First Friday opening, a number of special events surround the show, Including a benefit for the Autism Society, a Saturday afternoon Artist's Tea, and Movie Night with a film introduced by film critic, filmmaker and teacher Robert Denerstein. See the dates and times of these events below.
