Jeffrey Collins: On Painting: December 2013

http://jeffreycollinspainter.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html

Wednesday, December 25, 2013. Materialists Installation at The Painting Center. On a balmy Sunday afternoon, I met Art Guerra and Anders Knutsson on Greene Street in Soho, put my big painting in the back of their truck and they took it to Chelsea. We've been planning this for months and the day of installation finally arrived. Thank you nature for such a wonderful day to install a painting exhibition in NYC. The other paintings I brought were all easy to move to NYC so there was no need to restretch them.

Jeffrey Collins: On Painting: August 2014

http://jeffreycollinspainter.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Saturday, August 30, 2014. One of the ideas that came to me while in this giant studio from the Tamaqua Elks Lodge and the Tamaqua Artist in Residence. Program, was to make a suite based on the positions of the thrones that used to be in this room for meetings. There are four Thrones, that includes the Exalted Ruler's Throne. Each of the paintings is 48 X 36 Inches and is Acrylic, on Acrylic Yarn, on Acrylic Coated Wood Chassis. Acrylic on Acrylic Yarn on Acrylic Coated Wood Chassis. Links to this post.

Jeffrey Collins: On Painting: July 2014

http://jeffreycollinspainter.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Saturday, July 12, 2014. Visions of more paintings haunt me while I visit with my newest painting, a 48X36 inch painting I refer to as Throne 1. Being that I have been painting in the Elks Lodge in Tamaqua, Pennsylvania, I have been influenced by the studio itself and the history that has taken place in that room. While viewing this particular new painting. I keep having visions of more and more paintings. Https:/ www.indiegogo.com/projects/jeffrey-collins-art-residency-in-tamaqua-pennsylvania. Please do...

Jeffrey Collins: On Painting: Chris Succo at Journal Gallery Brooklyn NY

http://jeffreycollinspainter.blogspot.com/2015/06/chris-succo-at-journal-gallery-brooklyn.html

Sunday, June 7, 2015. Chris Succo at Journal Gallery Brooklyn NY. Of the few exhibitions I witnessed while in NYC for this visit. I knew that two of them were high on my desirable list. One was Chris Succo. At The Journal Gallery. In Williamsburg. Photos all with my iPhone 4, which doesn't have the best white balance. Who is known to him for doing this technique. My knowledge of art history tells me it was done many years before by David Diao. Remember you can click on the images and see it's larger size.

Jeffrey Collins: On Painting: April 2015

http://jeffreycollinspainter.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

Sunday, April 26, 2015. I've also been working on my second fluorescent painted chassis, the first was orange, this next one is red. They sure do and will make for one heck of a contrast to what they will be paired with. The iphone I have doesn't do well for they types of colors, so bear with me. The painting is not a landscape format as it is shown here, I prefer doing portrait format paintings. It's such a wonderful feeling to make new paintings, to create what one has never seen before, it's fun.

Jeffrey Collins: On Painting: November 2013

http://jeffreycollinspainter.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html

Monday, November 18, 2013. A few months ago it was proposed to me through Anders Knutsson. That we could get together with a couple painters and construct an exhibition at The Painting Center. In the Chelsea section of NYC. We got in touch with Art Guerra. The exhibition will be open after they open up from the new years festivities, the opening party will be on the 9th of January, so there will be time to enjoy the exhibition before the opening celebration.

Jeffrey Collins: On Painting: March 2014

http://jeffreycollinspainter.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 31, 2014. Peter Reginato @ Andre Zarre Gallery. Those that know me, know of my deep appreciation and admiration for the sculpture of Peter Reginato. Creating his own form, formula, and formations. He has been enjoying a successful exhibition at Andre Zarre Gallery in the Chelsea section of Manhattan. Photos never do justice to the power in these two sculptures as they battle for dominance in the room. Yet another angle from The Spanish Poet. Links to this post. Labels: Andre Zarre Gallery.
