Description of Pictures: "Inch by Inch" 120+ Artists, each artwork ~100 sq.in.On display: December 5 - 23, 2018
Touchstone Gallery is pleased to present Inch By Inch , our seasonal 120-artist group exhibition celebrating the diversity of our local arts community. The group of artists consists of Spotlight Art Series@Touchstone 2017 applicants and the gallery’s current member artists. All of the artists may have little in common at first glance, but what unites them is a love of art and the desire to create it. Artworks participating in the show must be 100 square inches or so in size.
Art has a long history of bringing people together across boundaries. Art can increase our understanding of disparate and historically marginalized people and support underrepresented communities so they can create, sustain and share their own narratives.
Our work with area artists and local art organizations are an essential part in our aim to develop stronger relationships within our community. Opportunities for more progressive conversation among groups lead to insights and a shared sense of togetherness, and in turn lay the foundation for the exploration of mechanisms for maintaining vital cultural and community traditions.

Coloring Book, 2018
This drawing highlights the childish and careless nature of our current president. I wanted to show this disgusting display of power and ego through the point of view of Trump's "child self," as if he was given the crayons and asked to draw what makes him happy. The work is humorous but also shows what dark and volatile times we are living in.

Rapids, After Painting the Peace Flag, 2017
After I finished painting the "Founded on the Freedom of?" peace flag, the fourth painting in my Reimagined American Flag series, I used the remaining paint to create an abstract. I often make an abstract work from the paint left over from my political-conceptual artwork.

The Color Yellow, 2018
I work intuitively, interweaving the layers of my compositions to represent the reality from which they are derived. The narrative and the figures depicted are the only predetermined aspects of my process. By layer photos of life in Baltimore with expressive line drawings and varied image content, my work accentuates a plot of distraction by obscuring the complexity of the full scenario. My intention is to create a composition that eludes comprehension at first glance. I am to illuminate that there are distinct portions of this content that are willingly overlooked.

Peopled, 2018
Interactions between people and the spirit world, and their coexistence with each other is a recurring theme in my work. Angels, demons, entities, and humans, plus our masks and representations of each other have great meaning, culturally, and there is a commonality of these themes, in many cultures, no matter how each different culture expresses their relationship with two selves, spirit, masks, and how we present ourselves to the world.

Impressions of Cave Art, 2018
The tragic fate of the mass extinction of animals started to surface in my work recently leading me to create art representing animals on the verge of extinction. My color palette is most of my works is restricted. My process is time-consuming -- consisting of the application of many transparent layers of acrylic -- wet onto dry.

Firefly at Dusk, 2018
I created the background of this painting using a gel plate mono-print with feathers and natural elements, using the blues and purples to give a sense of dusk in a summer evening when the fireflies start to come out and blink. The image of the firefly itself is done in warmer hues. I used to split hair brush to emulate the blurry, humming, flight of firefly at dusk.

I'm working on a series of paintings about my suburban neighborhood. This house across from the mailboxes is always watching me with its dark eyes, and I'm always watching it with my green ones, hoping for a glimpse inside.
