6x6 in New York

Eeek! Housework and spring cleaning has kept me hostage and I haven't been able to work on very much lately. I feel really unproductive even though I've been working my butt off.
I did create a couple trace monotypes that I sent off to the 6x6 Show at the Rochester Center for Contemporary Art. Today is the final day for submissions and soon they will post images of the hundreds of 6"x6" pieces of art that have been donated by artists from all over the world. You will be able to buy online or if your lucky enough to live in the area, you can snag one at the preview showing.

 All pieces are anonymous until after being sold but I will give you a peek at mine for fun.

Showing in New York

Look out! I'm showing in New York! Are you impressed? I'd like to say this is the first of many future shows in the Big Apple but this one didn't take too much work to get into. My daughters ( 3 yr. and 6 yr.) and myself created some pieces for the 6"x6" show being held at the Rochester  Contemporary Art Center. This all inclusive show asks artists to create pieces no bigger than 6"x6" and sign them on the back to keep the creator anonymous. The pieces will be shown en masse starting June 5 until June 11 with each piece selling for $20. A wide variety of people have submitted and there are a few celebrity participants as well. This is a fundraiser for the center and it looks as though it's quite popular because there is a lottery system for priority purchasing. As well, online selling that will start on June 7th. You can view the 5,000 plus submissions here. There are a few I would like to put a twenty on.

Below are our submissions. Shhhhhhh. It's supposed to be anonymous. You won't tell anyone right?
