Costa Mesa, CA – April 29th, 2006 – Subject Matter Gallery is pleased to present “Sixteen Days”, an exhibit of new work by Los Angeles based artist Jesse Hotchkiss and San Francisco based artist Casey O’Connell. Both artists’ careers have been highly influenced from an art background since childhood, which shows in their strongly inspired, raw, and personal work. “Sixteen Days” will feature the paintings of Hotchkiss’s gestural landscapes and what O’Connell liberatingly describes as “layers and layers of overzealous mistakes.” The show will be at Subject Matter Gallery in Costa Mesa, CA from April 29th – May 14th.
Formerly a showcased artist at Subject Matter Gallery, Los Angeles resident Jesse Hotchkiss once again confirms his instinctive talent for art and illustration as overlapped by his roots in skateboarding. Having since been established as a fine arts painter, Hotchkiss owes his physically-evolved artistic progression to his natural ability for play. The driving force of Hotchkiss’s multi-faceted life produces an outcome of connection to the environment in his work, something Hotchkiss sees as “ethereal space.”
Casey O’Connell, a fine arts graduate, elevated her art career when she moved to San Francisco from New York City. O’Connell shows gratitude for the subsequent details of her life. From her life in Florida and New York and now her blooming career in San Francisco, O’Connell’s stages in her artwork can be seen as the manipulation of layers in her paint or what she calls “enhanced stains.”
