“Dressed Right for a Beach Fight,” 2015, 39” x 29” (framed with a mat), charcoal and pencil on paper. The drawing will be in a group show at Ceres Gallery, 547 W. 27th Street, Suite 201, New York, NY 10001, June 20th-July 15th. The reception is June 22nd, 6-8 PM. The name of the group exhibition is “My Favorite Things.”
Originally, I did this drawing for a solo show. My work for the solo show was related to clothes and how much I crave them, remembering events in my life by what I was wearing at the time. Since, I have decided not to do an exhibition based on clothing.
Therefore when the Ceres group show came up, I wanted this drawing to be in the show because I still catalogue my memories in this way and it goes very well with the theme. The title of the drawing is strange, but if it confuses you or seems to evoke questions or need explanation, just think of it as “Drawing Number One.”

Did I know that you remember events by what you wore? I do the same, Hollis! I can go all the way back to high school. 🙂 Enjoy the exhibit. Will you travel up to NY for the reception? Very cool piece!

Jill, I think we all talked about this when Jenny Pellett published her blog post on WP with that provocative title, “And Now For some Great Nudes.” We all got into style, etc. and everyone got to know each other. But I don’t remember you had that same cataloging system! No, no travels this time to NYC. Thanks!!
