Barnaby Whitfield: solo show opens Friday in Brooklyn

Shatter

Barnaby Whitfield, my deeply twisted pastel artist pal, has a new solo show opening on Friday at Brooklyn's 31GRAND gallery. (Previous BB posts about Barnaby here.) The exhibition is titled "Putto Rising." Seen here, "Oh! Shatter The Mask! My Mother Is Anh Duong!" (2006, 30 x 22", pastel on paper.) According the show description, "In his latest work, Barnaby Whitfield celebrates his mother's well earned, well paid for newly relaxed face and life, the artist's own self granted graduation from tv's therapeutic reality program "Starting Over" and the beginning of his quest to paint Norman Rockwell's 'big' pictures at last."
