Blatantly Garish Art Show
Nick C. Kirk Blatantly Garish Art Show in Dallas up till July 28, 2012.

In case you missed the opening, my latest show in Dallas will be up 'till July 28th.  Thirteen new pieces on display, including my first ever collaboration with John Worley.  I had a great time working with John on this piece.  I have no idea why I decided a twenty foot painting would be a good idea for my first every collaboration.  It was truly exhausting working on such a massive piece, but John and I finished it up in about two and half weeks time.  Many days easily had over 14 hours of painting involved, but I am very excited about the outcome. It is a crazy colorful piece about the American soda giants and their use of advertisements weaved into one monstrous mess.  The painting is mostly acrylic on canvas with a wood frame and wood/metal platform.
