Lost Houses by Andrew Shay Hahn proofs





Hello one and all, here are some advance looks at pieces for "Lost Houses" at the Cameron House from November 11th to Dec 9th. Opening Reception 4-6 pm and then The Cameron Family Singers play. Each of these paintings are 12in x 12in acrylic on canvas. The overall focus of the show being the end of my relationship with the woman who I (rather coldly, yes I agree) refer to as "the Business Partner" on this Blog, it really is an unfair name, but as the Blog was structured around " the Mad Craft Shoppe" being a physical place, well, I went with it as a name for her, and it was a bad idea, but too late to change now. The idea of having to move away represented rather simply in the first two pieces, the tiny airplane, which has been a symbol of mine for years, but if you're familiar with my work, usually the plane is red. The Home on the Crow being a newer attempt at linking my work to a more narrative form, using Children's book illustration, and the final image below incorporates the Red Cross, again another prevalent image in my work, as the two occupants from the row boats, meet to try to reconcile their differences, this piece was painted when there was maybe a chance of healing the rift.

Each of these images will be available at the Cameron House or by contacting madcraftshoppe@hotmail.com $160.00 each
