Exhibition: The Way We Were
October 1, 2009
I am pleased to announce my debut solo exhibition The Way We Were, presented by the Pendulum Gallery. This exhibition presents a series of oil painted portraits based on the look of love through false nostalgia, combining visual elements from popular culture of past decades. This series of portraits evokes false memories of romanticized love as seen through modern eyes.
