Rikcat - The Art of Rik Catlow

I’ll have two pieces in this show that starts in early December. Be sure to check it out if your in the area.

Distinction is pleased to announce our upcoming exhibition "Infinity Squared" featuring 28 artists from the US and abroad. All art will be 8"x8". We are proud to have guest curator and artist, Kelly Vivanco, curating as well as participating in this exhibition. The opening reception with several artists in attendance will be held on Saturday December 13th, from 6-11pm. A second reception will be held on Saturday January 10th, from 6-11pm.

I’ve put a couple of paintings up on eBay at some very attractive prices. Also I’ve lowered some prices on some paintings in my Etsy store.

In other news I did a short interview that you can read on a site called Art Bastard. Check out the site it has a bunch of great interviews with a lot of great artists. Most of the artists were new to me, so it was good fun.

Hello everyone, just wanted to let you know I have a piece in a traveling show that is making its last stop in NYC. It’s a show that was put on by 20th Century Fox with all the work inspired by Family Guy. It’s at the Paley Center for Media (the old Museum of Television & Radio) and it runs till September 7th. Here are all the details and below is the press release from Fox.

If your around the Nashville be sure to stop by TAG Art Gallery. I’ll have at least 10 pieces on display along with Mathew Feyld, Jason Dunda, Julianna Bright and Kelly Williams. Unfortunately I won’t be at the opening, but I’m sure it will be great non the less.

The show opens Opening Saturday July 5th, 2008 from 6pm to 9pm and continues thru July 26th, 2008

Hello everyone, hope you guys is having a great spring. Just a couple of things to update you on.

First off, you’ll notice that I’ve updated the look of the site slightly by adding some background texture. I still plan on tweaking it some more and it will be a work in progress through out the year.

I have an a style & process I’ve developed over the years that makes my work pretty distinctive. I’ve documented and shared this process in this post. At times the process becomes to mechanical and not spontaneous. I don’t like knowing what a piece of artwork will look like before its even complete. I rarely do sketches before I paint and like to be surprised with the completed pieces.

I’ve done a redesign of the site. Got tired of the old design and needed to change it up. The biggest changes are the artwork section now uses and index page with thumbnails and single artwork pages. I’ve switched from using my home grown store to etsy.com. There are still some things that need to be addressed, but it’s about 90% there.

Hey folks, I’m cleaning out the closets and putting some stuff up on eBay. Some xBox 360 games, an iPod Nano and a couple of paintings. These paintings are more on the experimental side and priced to move. Every once an awhile I like to do some work that are outside my normal process. So go take a gander at What, Bad Teeth, and Choke. Bid early and bid often. Ha!

Hello all, happy 2008! Well, I was supposed to have a show at a local gallery in Charlotte this month, but it got canceled. The reasons for the cancellation are a long story that I’d rather not go into. On the good side it enables me to put more work up on my website. I’ve updated the store with some of the work from the canceled show and some from returning work I just received this week.

If your around the Los Angeles area this Saturday be sure to stop by Carmichael Gallery of Contemporary Art. I’m participating in their group show where all the artwork is no more than $500.

The show opens Opening Saturday December 1, 2007 from 8pm to 12pm and continues thru December 12, 2007
