Hey Folks,

Well, we've been in Boston about 6 months now. After surviving the move and the flood, I'd say we're ready for anything. Lately I've been making work that is a response to living in the city. There is a marked lack of contemporary public art here in Boston and I aim to change that.

Enjoy! There are a few more pics and some descriptions on my webpage http://www.nathaniellewis.net/ I've also had the chance to update the illustrate and sketch section.

First attempt...way too small

Deep Tonguing

So here is the trek of the tongue. It found it's way to all sorts of nooks and crannies. If you want to see it in person, it's currently at the Night Gallery in Tempe Marketplace or if you would like to see a few more pics stop by my official website: http://www.nathaniellewis.net/

Hey Folks,
I know it's been a while, but I'm back to blogging. Here are some shots of the process for my giant tongue. I'll be posting the rest soon!

Covered it in resin

Primed it

Next time:
We get to see where the tongue goes!

Get back on the horse, young man.

Well, Two weeks was enough of a break. Back to work. Here are some shots of a children's book loosely based on my thesis show. The working title is "Monster, Me". I'm also starting a sculpture that is kind of hard to visualize right now, I can't find which sketchbook it's in so for now your are going to have to trust me on this one.

Also, Check out my website for some new panorama's of the show. If you didn't get to see it, these give you a pretty good idea of what it looked like.  If you would like to see a modified version of "Bigger than you" you can see it at the "Night Gallery" in Tempe Marketplace from now until June 1st!  Check it out.  There are one or two new pieces for those who have seen the show before.

Best,

So, thesis came and went. What a ride. For those of you who didn't see my thesis show, "bigger than you" in the Harry Wood Gallery at ASU, it was April 5-9, 2010. I got a lot of great feedback Thank you to everyone who helped and the few and the proud who went above and beyond the call of duty. I've updated my website:

Now the trick is to keep working. I need to get something done in the next two weeks. Keep an eye out. For now, here are a few shots from setup and the show:
