Exhibition coming up

Hey there, it's been a while. I just realized that the curator of the art exhibitions in Hamburg's famous Boutique Bizarre has sent out invitations for the next show, which will be mine. Thus, the artist's blog the invitation linked to is also mine, and that's why I'll hastily slam together a post that features at least some of the newer paintings.

To get that out of the way, the date is May 10 to July 23, with a nice opening night's party/vernissage on Thursday, may 10. Drop by, it's going to be a blast!

As the nature of the venue suggests, the exhibition will focus mainly on the sexy stuff, so here's some of that:

This one is pretty new, from February this year.

That one is a little bit older, from about autumn last year. But it'll get some finishing touches,...

...as will this one, which I painted in January. I must say I love the plasticity in the parts where it counts, though. There'll be more new stuff, some of which has some astounding properties that are best seen live.

I've also been working on some frames to help the paintings shine. Since I found bland old modern frames to bland and classy baroque ones to hard to come by, I developed a procedure to make my own. My room is an absolute mess right now, but it's a productive mess, and that makes it cool. Here are some impressions:

I'll see to it that I get some more photos taken (I'll have to since prints of the paintings are supposed to be available during and after the exhibition) - I'll post some more once that has happened. In the meantime, take care!
