I bought Salsa Verde Doritos for this painting because I liked the color of the bag, but they disappeared from the store immediately afterward. What’s a snack you used to enjoy but can’t find again?

Don’t miss the latest episode of the Klaire and Aaron Show! (It’s on YouTube.) Aaron and I chat about the new brodalisque paintings I made with generous support from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, and it’s titled “Brodalisques.” In addition to talking about these dudes in man caves rendered in oils, Aaron reveals that he knows one of the models.
Oops! I forgot to share my progress when I made this painting!
You can see my new artwork for yourself on my website https://www.klairelockheart.com/

Here are the paintings from my Subdued Dudes art exhibition!
Thank you so much to everyone who attended the opening for my Subdued Dudes art reception last Friday! I feel like I’ve done nothing but paint for the last year, and it made me incredibly happy to share my work with you!

Here’s a sneak peek of my artwork at No. 7 in Vermillion. I owe a huge thank you to my wonderful husband Aaron C Packard for not only modeling in some of the paintings but also helping transport these wily beasts. Somebody* should buy this man a drink after the art reception today from 5-7!
*By “somebody,” I mean me, but you’re welcome to join us afterwords!

I’m absolutely pleased with the article Angela George wrote about me for the Argus Leader titled, “How to see the 'brodalisque' paintings from South Dakota's first-ever Pollock grant winner.” She provides information about the Pollock-Krasner Foundation along with explaining the work I did to complete my grant project.
Eek! I’m getting ready to debut the paintings I made with the Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. I hope to see you at the opening reception on March 28th at No. 7 Center in Vermillion!

I’m going to debut the paintings I made with the generous support of the Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant on Final Friday, March 28th from 5-7 pm at No. 7 Center Gallery, 7 Center St. Vermillion, South Dakota. I titled the exhibition Subdued Dudes because I think I’m hilarious, and I’d love to see you there!

I’m making progress on this new brodalisque painting, but I still have a lot of work to do!
Why do my paintings take so long to complete? I blame glazing!

Am I showing off my progress on this massive brodalisque painting or am I documenting my decent into madness?
