The crowd at the Art on Paper fair

As an artist, perhaps I look at art fairs differently than non-artists, art dealers and critics, I think. The last several days have seen multiple fairs in New York City during what is know as Armory week. The Armory Show is the main fair with its sister fair Volta, but there’s also Art on Paper, Scope, Pulse, Spring Break and others. To amuse myself I often take a spin through the first fair and see a recurring theme, medium artist or idea to focus on. Here is my VERY loose theme of are my rainbow inspired work. The human eye uses the full spectrum of colors (left) to see the world so you could argue that ALL art is a rainbow, but look through these and you’ll get my drift. In any event, we’re not in Kansas…
