More work by Artist Will Hubscher at Sinotique - Brooklyn
all images copyright Will Hubscher
Pennsylvania artist Will Hubscher is showing his latest work at the Sinotique Showroom in Brooklyn. This pair entitled "Endeavor" and "Excellence" draws on imagery
from early Japanese photography. They are among the largest of Will's works measuring 38" x 25" unframed. They are available at www.sinotique.1stdibs.com
The colors are saturated and the composition, a departure from Huscher's fractured planes, is dynamic and the figures are poised to explode into their next "pose".

Just made this desk
I made this desk with a reversable bamboo top, utilizing my signature handmade artisinal bamboo. One side is stained dark walnut brown and the other is natural with dark highlights. I kept the thickness rather light at one inch. The trim is reclaimed Brazilian jacaranda from an antiques dealer friend who imports directly from Brazil. The jacaranda I bought from him was orginally used as flooring for a factory built in the 19th century.
The legs are made from American oak. I added a simple chamfer detail to soften the angularity.
Audrey Lee's Latest painting
My sister, artist Audrey Lee Waller, recently completed this painting and I just installed it in my Brooklyn showroom. It looks wonderful! I've successfully represented Audrey at Sinotique for years. She's also represented by Mark Humphrey Gallery in Southampton, N.Y., after several seasons at Gallery Merz in Sag Harbor.
This painting is slightly over 6' tall by 6' wide. The medium is collage on board. Audrey uses many techniques including scraffito, collage, metal leaf among others.
It is one of my all time favorites out of the many dozens of paintings I have sold of Audrey's. Audrey was highlighted in the East Hampton Star.
Please make an appointment with me if you wish to see it.
Location: Sinotique Showroom 70 John St. Brooklyn, NY 11201
