Makasi's work of combining fanciful character grotesques that seem to writhe across their canvases with beautiful color and textures was generously showcased. Travis Metford's highly graphic style explodes with color and the puzzle blocks box is definitely a coveted piece for me. I was also intrigued with Asheville newcomer, Kristin Gregg's cityscapes as well as several of her pieces which are printed on metal. I have been curious about using this method myself and it was cool to see the results up close.
i have to give credit where it is due. i painted pics but the prints on metal were the idea of Susan Molnar, a friend of mine, who has been a big help during the show. She tweaked the images and carried out the whole printing on metal process.
