We know it is still a fair ways away, but it is so exciting we couldn't wait another second. "The place we call home" is our second Solo Exhibition at Copro Gallery. With our little Poppy taking up most of our time, it has been a huge effort putting together a new body of work. We are really happy with the new direction our work has taken, and can't wait to share it with you.

HANDCRAFTED VECTORS by Abe Lincoln Jr.

Info posted by Abe Lincoln Jr.:

Abe Lincoln Jr. here, I'm just stopping by to let all you Northwesterners know that I've got a new solo show opening up at Schmancy Toys on July 10th in Seattle, Washington.

The name of the show is Handcrafted Vectors and its all new works in a new collage process I've been working on. Everything is 100% handmade and affordable. The work is inspired by Colorforms, & Henri Mattisse. Some people have said it reminds them of Eric Carle & Roger Hargreave's work but the art definitely has mature themes running throughout. I reference fertility symbols, update old myths, advertising icons, and of course Char (the pooping bird) will be making an appearance or two as well. I wont be able to be in attendance for the opening but Portland's own Bwana Spoons will be there doing his book signing the same evening so be sure to go down and get your Bwana stuff signed and pick up a painting or two of mines.

See Schmancy Toys and my website for more details.
