Earlier this week I went to my nephew Dan's first college group-art-show opening. It was cool to see his new work, and I enjoyed talking to him about it. He has long been articulate about his art, and it is a pleasure to be shown around the gallery by the artist himself!
This piece is called "Freshman Minus Fifteen"
It refers to the stress of entering college, which in Dan's case resulted in not eating for a week! Want a close up?
The walls of the gallery were covered with works on paper. This pencil drawing was near the ceiling, which explains the wonky angle.
The students drew more traditional self-portraits, then did a second one based on research they did about Halloween. There were some scary pieces (one with sewn lips gave me the shudders).
I am crazy for this piece:
Thanks for taking a look at Dan's work. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!
It’s very interesting artwork, that’s for sure.
I agree with Carole. ;o)
So talented! Thank you for sharing his work with us.
