Hello All!
I have four works in THE OTHERWORLD Exhibition, a group exhibition of visionary artists exploring alternate realities. THE OTHERWORLD opened to the public last Friday and will be up till the first week of February. Opening reception (yes, in-person!) is December 2nd in Thousand Oaks, CA. I will be there and would love to see you!
Can I just say, not only am I honored to be sharing the walls with some amazing artists of the past and present, but also a couple of them are creative heroes I have studied and followed since I started my creative life as a young man. It is incredible to be sharing wall space with many of the creatives who have been my idols.

I get to be there. I’m an observer and appreciator of Guy Kinnear and his work. I have connections!!!!
Omg, Guy. I am gobsmacked.
Drawing Sun is as powerful an archetypal image and narrative as Paper Woman with Thunderhead. Drawing Sun captivates me in the story; I did and could spend quite a bit more time with this.
The Matriarch, with the woman-as-rock and rock-as-organic…
You more than hold your own in the company of your creative heroes, Guy.
Thank you for your eyes and your words Tracy! As artists we invest so much psychic energy into a work, it is gratifying to know when some of that energy is transferring to the viewer.
