Read the post at https://slart.substack.com - Hey, I’m the new Jean Dubuffet. I write twice weekly about my art practice and share stories about my transition from a day job to being a full-time professional artist.I share how I was captivated by Sophie Von Hellerman's painting at Turner Contemporary, which inspired me to work on a larger scale in my own art. I couldn't work in my studio this week due to a family illness, but I'm planning a session next Wednesday to start a new piece.
Looking ahead, I'm organising an exhibition titled "Trespasso," set for either July 20th or August 17th, 2024, in an unconventional venue with local artists, chefs, and musicians to foster community and cultural connections. Additionally, I'll participate in an art fair in Brussels in November 2024, where my curator will showcase my work. This trip will also be a family outing, exposing my daughter to the art world.
Lastly, I pitched a job idea to Mills Baker and Chris Best, CEO of Substack.
