On Display: @fredschnidergallery is featuring local artist, Allen “Big Al” Carter’s new exhibit, “Big Al Carter: A Retrospective” — the first area exhibit of Carter's artwork since his death in 2008. The exhibit is open to the public and runs through March 3, 2019. Born in DC, Carter was a multi-talented artist—painter, printmaker, sculptor, muralist—who drew inspiration from his experiences and knowledge of man’s universal problems, art history and everyday life. His work is on permanent exhibit at the Smithsonian and Corcoran. Thank you @abc7dc and @abc7kidd for featuring!

Throwback to one of my art shows in DC. Needless to say I continued painting into the pieces displayed that didn’t sell. This was around 2007??? In a pop up place in Alexandria. Time to get busy with new work. Also I was on the way to turning blonde. The ambition was strong Luke. And I am happy to say I think all of these pieces were sold.

A sister been putting in hella work on these abstract watercolors/mixed media pieces (this one is 18x24, but some are much larger), but I've been nervous about showing them to anyone for some reason. 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️ (also I promise the layered, fluid work aka MY BABY is coming back but not until my job ends. There are ten gallons of unopened resin in my bedroom and four gallons of pouring medium in my studio, so.... It's going down.)

Saturday night and I’m cozy at home with my fam, but last night was fun being with great women at a Women’s Caucus for Art show. Here I am between Tiffany and Tehera of @nesfieldperform in front of one of my paintings. 🙏🏻🤗 I’ve got two more upcoming shows with openings on 2/21 and 3/14 (stay tuned for details!) so I’m busy in the studio this weekend. What are you up to this weekend? Hopefully it involves relaxing 😌 . . . . . . #artforinteriors #dcartist #bethesdamd #supportartists #artexhibit #abstractpaintings #contemporaryartists #womenwhopaint #womensupportingwomen #createcultivate #originalartforsale #emergingartists #abstractlovers #artforyoureveryday #lovetopaint #creativewomen #dcartscene #acreativedc #ourdistrictsart #bethesdarow #artfriends #femalepainter #womeninthearts #marylandartist #artsupporters #femalefriendship #loveofart
