Signature: Print name: ~~ Date: ~~ 'ZS~~ ~D _ To propose an exhibition in Initial Point Gattery, please submit this form, completed in full, with the required materials and fee, via U.S, mail, to: Meridian Arts Commission Attn: Initial Point Gallery 33 East Broadway Avenue Meridian ID 83642 Thank you for your interest! Dear Members of the Meridian Arts Commission: I propose to fill one half of the Initial Point Crallery with 15-20 paintings. The framed pieces vary in size from 16" x 20" to 28" x 36". The work is a study of vibrant color, painted on Yupo paper. Prices range from $200 -$450. Yupo paper is a relatively new fine art material. While it looks like shiny paper, it is actually a plastic surface on which paint behaves quite differently than it does on paper. The water evaporates off, leaving the pigment right on the surface, allowing for intense, vibrant colors. The pigment can be manipulated, moved or even removed. I find it to have a different feel and look than traditional watercolor, yet it retains the liquidity of watercolor. The way water moves the pigment is what attracted me to watercolor painting years ago. It makes for an aliveness in the paintings. This body of work is an attempt to use the flowing quality of watercolor, combined with the intensity of color allowed by the Yupo paper. It feels like a new media, a new expression, like something that has not been done before. I like to work with everyday subject matter, familiar to us all. I am painting vibrantly colored food and colorful people as intensely and as juicy as possible. If selected, I will send announcements to my personal mailing list of approximately 50 households in the Valley. As a member of The Idaho Watercolor Society, announcements would also be sent to the membership. Please consider allowing me to show at the Initial Point Gallery, and thank you for your consideration.
