Below be a virtual stream of consciousness Mind-Meld of the show using a minute from the event & the images seen below. My apologies to any artists whose work I missed: Place was packed! and that ruled. My first art event since October, delighted to have been able to be present.

Be sure to watch, that's a good one. Runs four minutes.

Carol Prusa, and yes I did in fact come all the way from Syracuse to make sure this thing was as awesome in person as it looked online. Reminded me of the surface designs from ALIEN (1979) crossed with Aubrey Beardley caligraphic drawings. Seriously.

VERDICT: It looked even better in person. Show runs through June 21st.

GO.

I believe it is (or based on) a garment? possibly intended to be worn.

My mind read them as sculptural forms which just happen to be flat.

The term Sky Saw came to mind. A saw with which one cuts the sky.

iFone apologizes to the Artist & Curator for the odd angles here and on other pix: Both works are perfectly rectangular and the show hung with exceptional care.

On the way home & finally found the nerve to stop and get a picture of my favorite Madison County barn. Just outside of Earlville on Rt.62 by the Chenango River crossing.

That blue rectangle just under the 62. Next time there's folks outside I'll stop and ask some questions. And beg that they never re-paint it.

That's a study in red. Syracuse area painter Phil Parsons comes to mind:

Is that the same barn he paints? or one of them?

Big painting with High Flow liquid acrylic, producing an effect I mistook for QOR watercolor.

Reflective points on the surface are from Glass Bead Gel.

I was fascinated by Erin's focus on the luminosity of the acrylics she was experimenting with.

Here's a great example of how it pays to visit the web presence of the artists in question prior to observing their studio work without a guide. Had no idea these were drying patches for "ropes" (my term) of acrylic which would then be peeled off the surface. My brain read them as cuneiform writing symbols for some lost Ancient Astronaut culture brought forth via the artiste as creative channel.

Emma Roche

... Soon started to dawn on me that every last bit of space in Emma's studio & beyond was covered with the things, like they were drying or something.

Emma Roche

So in fact they are drying patches for "ropes" of acrylic which then get peeled off for purposes not yet seen.

Emma Roche

Witness my brain putting it all together.

Emma Roche

I want to bite into it like licorice.

Emma Roche

... Who was delighted by my Ancient Astronaut theory! and confirmed that yes, she's a "Peeler" who knits with the finished ropes like yarn, with some of her finished works on the table there. And about halfway home it occurred to me that I'd not gotten a good shot of the results. Darn near almost turned around - You have me at the airplane! will see what I can nick of various feeds to supplement.
