Sea Foam Study for SHIM Art Card
The Sea Foam watercolors are a series of small-scale watercolors that I made to prepare for future SHIM/ArtCard exhibitions. These pieces were created by dividing a large (36 x 36 inches) completed watercolor into 20 smaller (6 x 8 inches) standalone works. Each piece has all the elements of a finished work but can also be part of the larger group.
Showcasing the aqueous affects of water is central to my Coral Reef series — a series that celebrates oceanic life forms which thrive when all the pieces support each other. This philosophy can be applied to many things in life — including the formation of the SHIM/ArtCard group.
The SHIM/ArtCard group, is an exhibition group made up of over 50 artists from around the world (and still growing) inspired to create high quality, affordable, small scale art works. Since its inception in December of 2021, the group has exhibited in New York City, Westchester, NY, Venice and Artsy.net. In September of 2022 (September 10, 2022 from 4-6PM) there will be an opening for over 200 artists at Jill Krutick Fine Art for the SHIM/ArtCard group as well as other artist groups in the SHIM Art Network. These groups will also be offered opportunities to exhibit in Miami during Art Basel among other places.
The SHIM/ArtCard group creates an opportunity for artists of all backgrounds and skill levels to create and exhibit postcard-sized artwork, which can travel the world and offer a collaborative network of creative and supportive artists.
I invite artists to join this journey, which opens a world of possibilities…stay tuned for updates about a new open call for Miami.
