LAYERED | 3rd Friday at Zhou B Art Center

This week was another fabulous 3rd Friday reception at the Zhou B Art Center in Chicago. It was a wonderful night, full of good friends and conversation. Sergio Gomez debuted a new series of paintings at ACS Gallery; his new work is definitely my favorite. Below are a few images from the show; check out more of Sergio's work on Artsy: https://www.artsy.net/acs-gallery/artist/sergio-gomez

Friday was also the opening reception for LAYERED at Art NXT Level Projects - an interactive exhibition of work by artists in the Art NXT Level Community. It was such a treat to connect with so many of these artists in person. The neat thing about this show is the variety - there is such a range of style, subject, form, and content - yet we are all connected by being part of this supportive community.

The show also has an online component, where you can get a glimpse into each artist's process. Check it out here: http://www.33contemporary.com/layeredshow/

You can read about my process for creating this painting on the exhibition website. There are images of my sketchbook, color studies, and several in-progress photos as this piece developed. Take a closer look here: http://www.33contemporary.com/sam-haring/
