GREED: A Ghostly Image

GREED BEING REVEALED

Many of you have asked that I show images from the reveal process of Xerography.  Below is an image of the reveal of Greed from the Psychomachia show, from which I posted a cropped version. Can you see the ghostly image?  A face, maybe?
Note:  Those of you who are interested in learning more about art and photography may find this list of online colleges helpful. It is interesting to learn about photography from many people’s perspectives.

ARTS in the AIRPORT – No Entry Fee!

Click Here to follow Artist R.L. Gibson by Email!FLY BY ME

Of all the shows across the country that I have been a small part of over the years, I have received more feedback from the Arts in the Airport series than any other.  Note: Some people ponder a masters degree online when they want to take advanced art courses. Whether you were part of this exhibit or want to someday be a part of another exhibit, extra knowledge is helpful.

I was an exhibiting artist in the Fall 2009 and Spring 2010 shows, and I regularly heard from fans of my work that they saw my pieces while traveling through Knoxville. 

Such a treat it has been. 

 

I am going to work on an entry for this next call.  To all of my fellow TN artists… take a minute to enter.  There is no entry fee and the exposure is great.

Thank you for all the feedback on the Psychomachia sneak previews. I really appreciate your patience on seeing the full images.

Here’s another cropped
piece of the puzzle…
Wrath, The Knife Thrower!

I’ve been working on Psychomachia show for 1 1/2 years now, and we have booked the opening at Perihelion Arts on March 31st of 2011. Psychomachia is a series of fourteen pieces from myself and Arizona artist photographer Jerry Portelli.

I have 14 of the images completed.

Although I still have to finish the reveals. This work reinterprets the Seven Deadly Sins and the Seven Holy Virtues in a series of 14 diptychs, one from me and one from artist Jerry Portelli. The aesthetic theme is the sideshow freak from the circus and fairs of yesteryear–nature’s artwork, if you will.
