Here are the designs for my frame with hidden storage. They are free to download.
Note: I don’t think I used the right hinges for this, therefore my design omits information on that. I expected the frame to be heavier so I oversized mine. I should have used 1.5″ stainless steel but hinges, or something more appropriately sized. There are two documents; one is the overall design for something made to house a 16×20″ painting, the other is a detail of the profile.

If you missed Seth Harris’ solo show “Lindy Hop”, don’t worry. There is a recorded gallery tour detailing each piece that was on display this past fall. The starts with a brief history of Lindy Hop as a dance, then moves on to explain the inspiration and anecdotes of each of the 24 drawings and paintings that were on shown at the Corkran Gallery by the Rehoboth Art League.
In the face of COVID, the Salmagundi Club challenged it’s membership to provide artwork for an online only exhibition.
“Opened or closed, a window is a transparent barrier that places the viewer apart from what is viewed. What’s seen is filtered by the viewer’s mindset into perceived reality. Every artist has his/her own particular way of seeing real or metaphoric. The artist’s own image may be reflected back to him too, somehow detached from its environment, inviting a more spiritual and less physical translation. The artist’s interpretation of the image may be influenced by current circumstances, beautiful memories, or simply a vision of feeling made visible. What do you see Out Your Window?”
In addition to drawing and painting, I also co-organize for a swing dance performance group called the NY Sea Findyhoppers. Out of 750 groups out team won third place in the marching category in the 2019 Coney Island Mermaid Parade.
I was recently interviewed by Mary McGinn of madetomove.co regarding how our group is adapting to the pandemic and what our plans for the future are. You can read the full article here.
“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.”
