The Sketchbook Show

Jacqueline Valenzuela March 17, 2020

The Sketchbook Show was curated by Elizabeth Munzon. Elizabeth is an artist and owner of the local gallery, Flatline. The exhibition she carefully put together features whole sketchbooks and lone pages from 21 artists.

The purpose of the exhibition was to allow others to peer into the world of each individual artist. Typically sketchbooks are very sacred spaces for makers. Most artist have sketches, collages, and various notes riddled throughout their sketchbooks. And sketchbooks are not typically seen by anyone besides the artist or a few friends. So laying bare these intimate books for viewers to see was a very intimidating situation, despite this every artist showed the viewers this personal side. Each artist stood out distinctly.

The work I showed for this show was a combination of personal studies/collages I have never shown before. As well as small pen drawings of the figure or car culture. Although everything I showed wasn’t directly linked to my paintings based on female lowrider owners they all play a key role within my work. My studies/collages weigh in on color choices and palettes I use within my work. My pen drawings separate and investigate the figure and cars. Basically everything I showed was a dissected version of my bold and colorful large-scale paintings.

In all I found that looking at the other artist’s work was refreshing. It gave me an insight on every persons thought process and creative process. Below I have listed the artist involved as well as a link to the gallery website. With the current Cover-19 situation the closing reception is on hold and the show is being extended. If you would like to visit the gallery space you can do so through booking an appointment with Elizabeth.
