GREAT
SHOW!
I am pleased to have been included in ID – The Object of Self at the Darkroom Gallery in Essex Junction, VT. Here’s a great pic of my little mermaid hanging amongst the other juried participants. Bottom right corner.

I am pleased and proud to have a piece from the Psychomachia series, Chastity: The Mermaid, showing in the ID – The Object of Self exhibit at the Darkroom Gallery in Vermont.
There is some humor, I suppose, in sending one of my more exposed self-portraits to a locale where it will be snowing before long. And, funny enough, this piece has legs. It has been from Phoenix, AZ to Los Angeles, CA then to Austin, TX…and now to Vermont. Ahhh, if time only permitted me to be her traveling companion. Maybe next time!
Okay, I admit it. I’ve fallen down on the blogging job again… It has been over a month since I posted an update to this blog. But, my excuse this month is the best one that I’ve ever had…
September was a crazy month for Artist R.L. Gibson, and October is shaping up to be a whirlwind as well. It started with acceptance into the Persona show at the Darkroom Gallery in Vermont, continued with acceptance into the Edges & Curves show in L.A. The Edges & Curves show led to an offer of a solo show at RicRoks Tattoos in L.A. this December, and the month was topped off by being chosen as a Featured Artist on MyArtSpace.com! (That’s me top left in the screen shot to the right!)
For the first time in my artistic career, I have more show opportunities than available work to show. How crazy is that? I couldn’t ask for better motivation to create new work. Wooohooo!
I just finished submitting 5 entries to the Persona exhibit. Have you entered yet?
I am a big fan of the Darkroom Gallery‘s curatorial themes, and I couldn’t resist a wacky portrait show. However, I have entered with my eyes wide open. I am not a photographer…I take photographs. There IS a difference. We’ll see how I do. The last show I entered at Darkroom ended in rejection, but I am trying again.
One of my 5 submissions is Pieces of Me: Charmed. This piece is close to my heart, no pun intended, and I have never submitted it before now.
