Welcome to my  blog: Introspection!

As much time in my studio is spent on thinking about and looking at art as there is on painting. Here I'll write about some of the things that pass my mind during those hours, or the inspiration that makes me grab the brush .

Be sure to visit my Studio Storage blog too, where I sell some of my earlier paintings at (very) low prices.

Tim Erickson at Polderland gallery

Friday october 19 opens 'Fields, Trees and Lakes' oil paintings by Tim Erickson in Polderland gallery. We're in the middle of installing the show and it's already looking beautiful.
Tim has had a prolific summer and this time we chose to hang the works in the 'salon' way, in blocks three rows up and wide. As almost all of the paintings in this show are about the same size and the themes are so connected this adds an interesting dimension to the show. Of course in all art shows a dialogue between the art works is created, but by bringing the works even closer together an even more vivid conversation takes place. it's very nteresting to see how different a singled out piece looks against the groups we have up now. As always, installing the show is as much fun as the opening will be.
For all of you in the Milwaukee area, please feel free to come and take a look, visit my website for the exact address and contact information.
