Flow Painting & Resin - Top of Desk

I needed a new desk, so in January I went to Target and picked out something that better suited my needs. I wanted to freshen it up and get creative with the top of the desk.

I painted the body of the desk white, and decided to do a flow painting over the top using acrylic and oil paint, followed by clear resin.

Behold!

Some assembly required.

I'm extremely pleased with the results. It’s just the right vibe I wanted for this desk/space: something light, gentle, and inspiring.

So, I've been doing huge updates to the game. And, I've been cruising along on the work for the Strategy Guide. For the next three days, it's crash course time: finish the Strategy Guide, paint the gallery walls, install the carpet, set up the desktop computer and table, finish the little things on the game, finish and print/bind the strategy guide... woah! I've got a lot to do. HERE WE GO!

The show "Already Broken: The Personal That is Not Ours" will open July 10th, and the reception is from 6pm to 8pm. The show is at the SVA Gallery in Chelsea, 601 W 26 Street, 15th Floor, New York, NY. The show will be up until August 6th. It's a group show featuring myself and my 13 colleagues in the program: MFA Art Practice (Class of 2015).
