Today’s Black + White

Local photographer Jeff Hall made a visit yesterday to pick up a framed print of my FOCA painting. Jeff has begun a fantastic photo project for this year, called Today’s Black and White, to help raise money to fight against child sex trafficking. From Jeff:
“…I am making every shot I post available to purchase as a print. 100% of the print sales will be donated to Free Chains, a non-profit organization that is fighting the Child Sex Trade all over the US and Worldwide. I realize some of these shots will be portraits and may not be ones you want to buy, but you can always buy a print of an earlier photo!”
Sorry kids, this is one of those portraits you probably won’t want to buy (except, of course, for you, Mom). Just be sure to keep your eye out for a new photo each day and support the very worthy cause.

Happy New Year!
This little gem of an etching/aquatint of Annie’s is from back in the day. Done sometime in 2003 (6 years ago now? Jeez, happy new year, indeed!). In fact, this may have been her first etching ever. I love this print dearly. After she did it, I made her give me one when we were in college. Note her signature, pre-Koelleified. Ha. Now I’m surrounded by her gorgeous artwork 24/7 for the rest of my life.
Ultra-limited edition of 5 prints, available at the etsy shop.

We’re very happy to announce the launch of our new Koelle Art etsy shop! It’s pretty bare at the moment, but check back soon (as in, after Christmas) as we’ll be adding more prints, drawings, paintings, zines, and other hand-crafted items for you and your kin.

Little bit o’ art, little bit o’ Christmas lights, little bit o’ pipes and cigars, little bit o’ Scott Tuma… ah, what a magical, freezing, cozy evening it was. Special thanks to Aaron Greene for the great photos.
The artwork is on display for this whole week at the Silver Chair, so check it out if you missed the opening.

Thank you to Joffre and all yall at the Silver Chair for being such fine hosts at the art show this weekend, and thank you to all of you who came out and braved the cold! And of course, a special thanks to you who purchased pieces! Your support means so much to me and Annie.
I’ll post soon with some more pictures. The art is on display for the next week, so if you didn’t make it, you can still check it out. The Silver Chair is open 10am-10pm daily.

Podcast Interview with The Revenant Culture

Annie and I did a little interview with Joffre and Andy, the fine folks at The Revenant Culture, an Upstate podcast/zine born out of The Silverchair Bookstore.
Click on Annie’s gorgeously fresh moth painting to check out their Podcast episode #13. Yeah that’s right. I said “gorgeously fresh moth painting.”
And be sure to come to our art show opening Saturday night (tomorrow!!) where you shall behold this painting (and many others) in all of their non-digital glory.
