All Hands on Deck

I was invited to participate in the "All Hands on Deck" show at the Chapter House by my friend Anthony Pedro. The opening reception is this Friday, July 9th at 7 pm. My piece is shown above and is titled "The Severed Hand of Davy Jones" (and it is literally a hand on a deck) it measures 9" x 13" x 2" and is mixed media. Below is the artist list and official press release/verbiage (written by the talented Matt Cavenaugh):

One of the great relationships of human existence has been the timeless waltz of mankind and the sea. This relationship and dance was no doubt born out of man's need for exploration and adventure with our planet earth's largest arena. Man has traveled it in search of foreign lands, hunted it for resources and gotten lost in its vast unknowns. Regardless of the time period or situation the sea has provided and has continued to fascinate its seekers. Throughout these interactions the artist has been close at hand. Acting as witness, documenter, megaphone and author to these timeless endeavors.

In July 2010, in America's birthplace of Philadelphia, 30 emerging young artist of diverse skill sets have enlisted their services in riding the waves of discovery in effort to provide new additions of pictures to provide visual dialogs of mankind's fascination with the sea.
