Chris Scarborough Destroys People ââ¬â Errol Crane
When you meet him in person, you’ll probably find him to be a friendly, amenable, even funny young man. (I did; I thought he was charming.) You’ll find out he lives quietly in Nashville with his wife, that he works hard on his art and has a good deal of friends; that he doesn’t like […]
Self Exam in Nation – Jerre Johnston
Beneath a pyramid that defines Etherton Gallery’s central entryway to its exhibition space, Bailey Doogan’s painting of a naked woman floats. She does so in the way one might in a pool of water; head thrown back, arms outstretched, legs bending in where the buoyancy keeps them from straightening or realizing a seating. Entitled Ex […]

"Sheep Meadow Sentito"Sentito is a musical term that means ‘with gentle feeling’ and in my painting I think… Central Park is steeped in history.

When I was a kid, my father owned a tape recorder onto which, one day, to amuse me, he placed some small, multicolored round stickers. Once the tape recorder was on, the stickers on the big wheels would create the most amazing visual and sound effects. A true carousel. This is one of my fondest […]
