New Small Works

“Spiritus” by Amy Guidry; Acrylic on canvas; 4″ x 4″; Sold; (c) Amy Guidry 2017
“Perception” by Amy Guidry; Acrylic on canvas; 4″ x 4″; Sold; (c) Amy Guidry 2017

I’ve added two new small paintings to the In Our Veins series.  One was previously posted in progress.  Both were featured in my recent newsletter and have each found new homes in Louisiana and Florida.  Spiritus, which is Latin for breath, continues with the theme of organs on the outside of the body as a reminder of our shared biology.  It is an acrylic on canvas, 4” wide by 4” high.  Perception, also an acrylic on canvas, refers to our understanding of nature and recognition of all sentient beings.  View each of them here: https://amyguidry.com/spiritus.html and here: https://amyguidry.com/perception.html.

Jurors’ Choice Award

I recently attended the Preview Party and Awards Presentation for the 2011 Art Melt at the Louisiana State Museum in Baton Rouge, LA.  During the presentation, I was pleasantly surprised to see that as the very first award was presented, my painting “Trophy” suddenly flashed upon the screen.  I received the Jurors’ Choice Award in which juror Kelli Scott Kelley gave a talk about my work.  It was an honor just to be selected for the exhibition since these things can be tough to get into given the hundreds, sometimes thousands of entries juried competitions typically receive.  So imagine my surprise when my work was announced for an award.  And it gets better!  Later on, I was called upon again for an Honorable Mention (which, again, I am honored, though I am surprised that a work can receive more than one award).  All in all, it was a fun event and a great exhibit.  And even if you missed the opening, the show will be up through August 28th so there is still plenty of time.

Also of note- this is the first year that Art Melt is offering an exhibition catalogue.  The catalogue as well as the actual artwork are all available for purchase online at this link:  https://forum35.site-ym.com/store/view_product.asp?id=811134
