Good Fishin'


I created a new wall sculpture today from things that I bought for the purpose and things that I used. It's called "Good Fishin'." Like Duchamp's Readymades, it makes a humorous comment about life and art. The insulated bottle holders have clips on them - belt clips? - which gave me the idea. Here's a photo of it. So laugh already!
Soon I'll post photos of recent paintings.

The Artistic Journey of Jay Rolfe

On Monday I completed two new paintings. I'll try to photograph them tomorrow and post photos soon. Yesterday I spent the day at a funeral for a friend's father. Today I started two more 3-D Shaped Stretched Canvas (3DSSC) paintings.

"Wine = Tax Deduction"


Jay Rolfe completed a new, small painting yesterday titled "Wine = Tax Deduction." The words of the title are spelled out with wine corks. The artist buys the bottles of wine and uses the corks for the painting which is, as are all of Jay Rolfe's paintings, for sale. Art supplies, including the corks, are tax deductible for the artist. Brilliant, right? Here's a photo of the painting.
