Land and Surveillance at Fieldwork Marfa

September 01, 2024

This past May I drove to Marfa to study art theory with Abinadi Meza and my fellow graduate students for two weeks.

This trip to West Texas would be different from my previous two- or three-night stays. With two weeks, I had time to settle, wander, and reflect.

Reporting back after one year (of three) in graduate school

May 07, 2024

The fall was spent with wood fabrication and getting settled in my new studio space (see previous post). In the spring, I followed through with some of the experiments I had begun in the later part of the fall semester. I also took my first two college credit art history courses.

New Beginnings at The University of Houston

September 06, 2023

I am very excited to announce that I am a now graduate student at the University of Houston! Over the next three years, I will challenge, rework, and expand my art practice as I pursue a MFA in Painting.

I moved into Elgin Street Studios and made a proper nest of my studio in late August. Book shelves installed, flat files purged, and artwork organized.

It was bewildering to see everything I’ve been working on in a single room again. For the past year, my studio has been divided between a one bedroom apartment and a very full storage unit. Unfinished thoughts and loose threads ran rampant.

There is work to be done. My first set of critiques this week made that evident. I look forward to sharing what comes of all this in the months and years ahead.
