Green Artists : Part Two

The following is part two of a continuing series, celebrating inspired paintings featured in the GREEN exhibition, curated by Mark Murphy. Contact the gallery if you would like to find out more information.


Deja Vu Waltz," by Amy Crehore is painted in oils on stretched linen, 24” x 24” in a custom carved frame. Amy’s work has been featured in many art galleries coast to coast, as well as the hip pages of BLAB magazine. You should check out more of her work at www.amycrehore.com


Jordan Awan is a Brooklyn based artist who created “I Feel Myself in Bloom.” Jordan describes his cardinal subjects as two sources: the "tall tales" of the early 20th century and the "hippie" movement of the 1960's. While these two subjects may seem disparate, they are both distinct and pervasive strains of American folklore that have come to be cultural cornerstones of America's national identity. While both are to be understood as a total embracing of American freedom, one hinges on man's superiority and dominance over nature. Check out more of his works at www.jordanawan.com


Keith Shore is living in Jersey and painting, “Summer in the Pumpkin Fields.” Keith is a prolific painter where ears on his subjects are optional and bare chests may show up on his latest skate decks or Ts. Check him out at the Art Now Fair, Art Basel in Miami or right here at www.keithshore.com


Louie Cordero’s latest painting is being delivered from Manila, Philippines where he actively paints, composes music and sculpts. Louie’s influences include zombies, 60s and 70s graphics, Big Daddy Roth and images found in health and sciences. You will have to Google search away, but don’t worry you will find plenty.


Damon Soule’s latest creation, “In defense of Dystopia,” is a mixed media, 21” x 22” painting. Damon’s paintings are fantastical assemblages of graffiti and paint where the balance of shape and form are spread edge to edge over his painting surface. Check out his work at www.damonsoule.com


Douglas Fraser is an inspired painter who might be considered a “Comic Book Social Realist.” After growing up in Alberta, Douglas is fascinated by all things mechanical, as reflected in his graphic novel, “Mort Grim.” Doug’s latest painting, “For Want of Green,” is a 24” x 24” alkyd on canvas with the sides metal leafed. Check out more of Doug’s work at www.fraserart.com


Tim Hussey is a fine art painter based in Charleston, SC. After 15 years working in editorial design and illustration, Tim has focused his career on fine art painting, where he has created an emotionally charged spin on the concept of over consumption and those who are anti-green in his painting, “Dipshit Lemonade.” See more of Tim’s work at www.husseyart.com


Christopher Mostyn, is an artist based in Missouri who loves art zines, monsters and life in general. His pen and ink drawing, “Grab da girl,” is a testament to how his images make Christopher feel like the process of mating Jerry Fallwell with Leonard Nemoy.
