ART100 Boston Recap

It was a beautiful evening filled with positive, creative, talented, innovative people that came together to appreciate each others craft and gain an understanding of each others perspectives. The gallery venue was the renown Piano craft gallery which is also home to some of the worlds well known artist. I had great time with my fiancé talking to people about the premise and meaning of my paintings. Hearing the reactions and responses to the artwork was very inspiring to us because it showed that we have the power to ignite passion in peoples hearts without even saying a word. I was filled with emotion being blessed to sell artwork and be provided with a platform to educate people about whats going on in the world. Now my work is in many diverse house holds and being the center of many thought provoking conversations. I feel truly blessed to have an opportunity to share a little piece of my universe with you. Thank you for your support thus far and stay tuned for my upcoming shows.

"Modern Age Pharaohs" by Sherwin Long

Property of SJLart

medium: Acrylic on wood 

size: 12"x17.75"

This painting is a representation of the modern age of man where technology is the making everybody complacent and apathetic. Slowly we are losing our grip on humility and demanding more and more resources. In the search for knowledge have we lost touch with the purpose of our existence and how to coincide with the natural world. As we move forward I wonder if this progression is going to be as beneficial as we are promised. we must remain hopeful and keep seeking the truth. I enjoyed making this painting on the wood surface because it gave a nice texture to the background and to the gold as well. I work with light washes of paint so that it allows the wood grain to stay visible.  As I keep experimenting with new materials I am finding new ways to articulate myself. I am enjoying this journey and hope that along the way I inspire others to embrace innovation and remain passionate as we venture forth.  

"She got SWAG" by Sherwin Long

medium: graphite

size: 8"x11"

This was my first fashion illustration and I wanted to do something that was elegant and sexy but professional at the same time. I want to do a lot more of these because it allowed me to experiment with different lines to create illusions through consistency of the direction.
