Tamara Dobson

This painting was requested by a friend from college. He's developed an interest in soul singers and other prominent entertainers whose careers blossomed around the 1960s and 70s.

Museum of Science & Industry, Black Creativity

So, my Granny told me to enter this Black Creativity show at the Museum of Science & Industry in Chicago a couple months ago. I entered two pieces and both got in. I don't know if they reject anything, but I'm just happy I got in. This is the first major exhibit I've participated in outside of Wisconsin. I think that's a step in the right direction. Shameeka and I took the work to the city on Friday morning. Thanks Granny!!!

Prepping Large Canvas

I'm preparing this large canvas for my next painting project. It will be the largest piece I've done to date. Exciting! 8 by 5 something or other feet. I have a plan, so if all goes well this should be an interesting piece. If all doesn't go well this will still be a worthwhile endeavor. I'll keep the blog updated.
