September 2011 Newsletter from Daniel Fishback Fine Art

 

What's Going On?

I just returned from a week in Colorado where I visited my son and his wife. I saw and photographed some beautiful landscapes and made inquiries about representation with a number of galleries, from Golden to Denver to Crested Butte. I was encouraged by the response and will be following up with some of them. Stay tuned.

The first episode of "Prime Suspect" was shown last week. My paintings did not appear on that show but should on some of the subsequent episodes. I hope you will watch the show and look for them. See information on Prime Suspect below.

I will be adding some work to the new Grafton Artisan Village beginning October 1st, 2011.

Newest Painting

 

 The Flying Wallendas - 24 x 18 Oil on Panel - Available

This painting was created from photographs that I took at Circus Flora on this year, 2011. I was one of group of artists that participated for the second time visual artists were invited to go behind the scenes and watch the circus performers rehearse. We were also privileged to visit the back lot and were granted passes to photograph the live performance. This is the fifth of a series of paintings from my photographs and sketches of the circus. This figurative painting is currently unframed. $850

Color, contrast, and cropping are close to the original but not exact.

"Prime Suspect"

 

Director Peter Berg reimagines the hit British TV show, starring Maria Bello. Maria Bello stars as tough-as-nails Homicide Detective Jane Timoney, who is determined to fit into a boys' club in NBC's newest drama "Prime Suspect."

The new NBC TV Show "Prime Suspect" staring Maria Bello, premiered Thursday, September 22, 2011 at 9PM CT. The show recently purchased prints of 3 of my Ireland paintings – shown below - to use on one of the sets of the show. While the dates of the episodes these images will appear on are not known, I am told that they will be shooting from this set several times.

ARTEAST was initiated in 1998 by a group of artists as a way to pool their resources and bring attention to the extraordinary artists in the Metro East area of St. Louis. Now in its 13th year, ARTEAST continues as an event designed to showcase the artists who live and work in Madison County, Illinois.

Artists from this region participate by opening their studios to the public or participating in exhibits. Over 150 artists working in a wide range of disciplines including collage, painting, ceramics, photography, printmaking, sculpture, glass and digital media show their work and demonstrate their craft.

The venues (where the art is displayed) include buildings with historical or architectural interest, as well as local art galleries and shops.

Organized as a self-guided tour for patrons, ARTEAST provides an opportunity to get a glimpse into the workspace, inspiration and techniques of our resident artists, while exploring the neighborhoods, historic city centers and beautiful countryside.
