over a year later and almost 20 shows have come and gone. i have decided that i am no longer working on skateboards. its been a few years and now a lot of people are starting to do it, (not to mention a talk with an artist who shall remain nameless) its time for a little change. so after my last 3..(last being a wedding gift for Mike Barrington & Elizabeth Stevenson commissions, good bye skateboards.

here are some highlights from the last ... however long

It has become almost cliché in the common vernacular that the female form is a work of art; and it has, of course, inspired artwork throughout recorded history. It is a source of inspiration in sex and love, wonderment for science, contention for religion and social politics, iconography for product sales. It is a balance of form and function, mystery and attraction, carrying with it innumerable interpretations.

Suite 100 Gallery is proud to present "Girls by Boys," a group show that captures the male perspectives of three distinct artists.

James Dormer Schneider presents pen-and-ink portraits of women in his life that inspire envy. Jonathon Kimbrell contributes mixed-media montages characterizing adult entertainment. Troy Gua renders celebrity icons of popular culture, as well as sexy images of anonymous women familiar to the imagination, in hand-cut paper behind glass.

"Girls by Boys" is an audacious and sultry look at the stuff that fuels our cultural engine."
