It's been sooo long!



I can't believe how long I let this go...even if I have all of two viewers ;)
Still, having a baby isn't easy and I applaud those women who seem to take it all in stride as they keep on producing work.

Well, I am finally getting back into a work rhythm and though still tinkering with them (that last 10% of a painting is so tricky, letting go used to be easier!), above are the latest paintings coming out of my studio. They are both small oil paintings -- I wanted to get moving and figured small was a good way to start. My next piece is twice as big. But no pics for that yet...

...And feel free to email me if you have questions or need directions!

Thanks!!

BFA Exhibition at CCA





Hi Everyone!

So I think this marks the beginning of the end; although I have one more class next semester, my senior show starts this coming week. I have seven paintings in the show that kind of span the work of my senior year so it's interesting to see how it's consistent yet it's definitely been evolving. Some pieces are kind of a hybrid because I began them last semester and finished them only recently.

The reception is on Tuesday, 5:30-7:30p in the SF CCA campus (1111 Eighth Street) -- please drop by if you have a chance. Three other artists are exhibiting at the same time so it's kind of like a group show, except we all have a chance to show most of our work. John's work, like mine, is figurative and in oils, while Leanne paints landscapes using images she runs through a Flash program...sounds complicated but the end result is very cool. Emily is actually showing sculptures, though she's also a painter, and the installation was still in progress when I left. Very cool though, you'll want to check it out.

Lastly, the group show I was in at Hatch Gallery just closed. We had an amazing amount of time and the show's dates expanded to three weeks so we had a chance to participate in the Art Murmur (I almost got claustrophobic, it was p-a-c-k-e-d!). Thanks again to Adam at Hatch and to Michele (our professor) for getting us the show.

My New Website

Hello!

You might have noticed that my link to see my art is now a new, actual website: gabrielahernandezlepe.com

It'll have an updated portfolio so you can view any new pieces and see any shows listed before they happen (though I'll probably post a quick description here as well!)

As usual, feel free to email any questions and thanks for checking in.

thanks!

Fall '07

I've been MIA from my own blog, sorry about that! Art school and assorted personal events have kept me running around like a crazy woman.

At any rate, I am getting ready for another group show in Jack London Square so I'll post new information on this in the next few weeks. I hope everyone can make the opening --it'll be in a new gallery opening up in the same building as the last show. I promise you it was a complete coincidence!

If anyone has any questions about available work or upcoming shows, feel free to email me.

Great Turnout - Thank You!




Thanks to everyone who took the time to attend the Artists' Reception on Sat., August 11th. We must have had nearly a hundred people attend. Thank you especially to Bach and Anthea for all their help -- and to Luis and my sister Alba for bringing in so many friends. For more pics: http://www.flickr.com/photos/angrypirate/sets/72157601389783190/

For those who couldn't make it, not to worry! We're organizing smaller visits, including one this coming weekend (Sat. 18th). IF YOU STILL WANT TO VISIT, please just email me or give me a call and I'd be happy to coordinate with you and show you through the space.

If you're trying to remember a work of art you were interested in buying, Alanna's been kind enough to throw this together: a website with most of the art in the show. You can check sizes, prices, and availability:
