I call this picture "Sun Field". It combines monoprint collage and painting. This is the image I chose for the card announcing the one-day Open Studios on Aug. 29th at the Sanchez Art Center from 1 to 5 pm. Its fun visiting all the artists studios; plus the 50/50 show is open in the galleries.

The 50/50 grand opening on Friday, July 24th was a bit over-the-top. I had fun, saw lots of friends and met so many people. There were over 1000 people. Everyone I spoke to said they had a great time, but many came back to see the artwork without the crowds. The next show will be the Art Guild of Pacifica's 51st Annual Membership Exhibit.

Woodcut #50

Woodcut #50
$150
I made it! 50 woodcuts in 50 days. As you can see, I didn't have a specific theme so each day I woke up wondering what the subject of my woodcut would be. Some days it was quite a pleasant surprise. Other days it left me wondering.
I definitely re-ignited my love for the art of woodcut- and I finally learned how to sharpen those Japanese woodcut tools. I'm looking forward to doing some larger, multi-block woodcuts soon. I'm off now for several days to the hot springs for a break. Thanks for following my blog. I'll start up with some new, larger work when I get back.
I hope you can make it to the grand opening of the show and see the actual woodcuts in person- the 3-d, sculptural aspect adds to their impact. I'll have all 50 of my woodcuts on display- along with sixty-six of my fellow 50/50 artists- at the opening on July 24th, 7 to 9pm at the Sanchez Art Center - 1220 Linda Mar Blvd. in Pacifica, CA 94044. At www.sanchezartcenter.org you can find links to some of the other 50/50 artists...they're all awesome.
Email me at andrewleone@earthlink.net if you want to reserve a woodcut prior to the opening of the show.
