This Saturday, February 6th at the Last Rites Gallery in New York, Fred Harper (Featured) and Nick Baxter will both have new work on display. I think both artists compliment each other very well. While Fred has a more brushy style with his painting, both have very colorful works. i would really love to see the paintings by Nick Baxter in person, the detail on each piece is impressive.

There is a new print from James Jean over at the Process Recess shop. “Wave II” is one of the open edition prints, at 17″ x 22″ on Ultrasmooth Fine Art Paper, signed and embossed. It’s a beautiful image, I love how James is able to not only make colorful energetic and brushy works, but also classy pieces like this. His shop is sure to have something for everyone.

Opening tonight, February 5th at the Cave Gallery in Venice is the latest solo show from Paul Chatem. “The Death of Big Head” features some more of the amazing “clockwork” inspired works we saw at the Shooting Gallery last year (Featured). Looking at the preview images of the show, the integration of the clockwork elements is seamless with the amazing colors and aging effects that Paul does with his work. These are paintings that are meant to be seen up close, not only to enjoy all of the subtleties that he adds to each piece, but the see the works in motion. I really hope some videos show up soon. Here are a few images from the show, head on over to see the rest. It looks as though most of the show pieces have sold.
