Art Shows in May and June

April 20, 2016 3:18 pm ,

Several paintings from the Ladies in Black series have been selected for inclusion in national juried art competitions next month. During these shows a panel of judges will review selected art for artistic and technical merit and award money and prizes to the entries with the highest score. After judging, these paintings will be displayed in their perspective galleries for roughly a month.

“Going Out” will be included in the 86 Annual Juried Open Show at the National Art League. The show will run May 2 through June 4.

“Shoe Shopping” will be featured in The Brooklyn Waterfront Arts Coalition’s Wide Open 7 competition while “A Study of Lauren O.” will be featured in the Affordable Art show at the same venue. The BWAC gallery is located at 499 Van Brunt Street in Brooklyn and will be open from 1-6PM on weekends during the show (May 7-June 12).

Oil Paintings

November 28, 2015 5:19 pm ,

“I decided a few months ago to step back from watercolors and work solely in oil for the time being. Oil paint is a medium that I had not touched since before high school but always wanted to master. In the meantime, I won’t be showing at any galleries or art shows. I also want to say that I appreciate the feedback that I’ve been getting on fb and instagram for the paintings that I have posted.”

“The A Train to Far Rockaway” is the latest subway painting in “The Mermaids of North America” series. This painting includes the first ever depiction of a mercat, which is a cat-fish, not at all related to a catfish.

The Mermaids of North America will be teaming up with Fancy Unicorn Designs to display at the Brooklyn Popup Holiday Market on Sunday December 14th from Noon to 6PM. The holiday market is located at Bat Haus near the Jefferson St. stop on the L train. The market is indoors, so you don’t have to worry about the weather.

Stop by and pickup a free NSFW mermaid postcard to send home to your blushing relatives. Or maybe they’re cool with that? Paintings, prints, ornaments, pillows, tote bags, jewelry, and baby onesies will also be available while supplies last. Seriously, the NSFW onesies are gonna go fast.

Two Moon art house says goodbye

November 20, 2014 4:18 am ,

IMG_6253

Last night, the Two Moon Art House and Cafe celebrated its final day of operation. The name will continue on in the form of their delicious shortbread cookies, but for now, the art house is no more.

I think we can all agree that after three years of film screenings, musical performances, figure drawing classes, art shows (ahem..), and standup comedy, the proprietors, Danielle Mazzeo and Joyce Pisarello, deserve a few quiet evenings at home.  I would like to thank them for providing “The Mermaids of North America” with a home for the last six months. Their support and encouragement has meant so much, and I will never forget their generosity.

We may have lost our art house, but we have lived through some fantastic experiences, strengthened friendships, and of course eaten way too many chocolate espresso shortbread cookies. Thanks again, Joyce and Danielle!
