Visual Art Eric Elliott and April Sargent Win the Neddy
Posted by Jen Graves on Fri, May 1, 2009 at 4:33 PM
Eric Elliott (my review here) is a master of the endless tones of gray. Here's a rarely seen drawing by him, from his web site.
New Studio (2007), ink on paper, 22 by 30 inches
April Sargent engraves glass until it looks photographic. Bullseye Gallery shows her work in Portland.
For the People of 1st and Jackson (2008), fused and cameo-engraved glass, 17.625 by 23.375 by 2.25 inches
Their work will go on display, with work by the other nominees (Tim Cross, Gary Faigin, Lynda Lowe, Benjamin Moore, and the artist teams of Joey Kirkpatrick and Flora Mace, and Jenny Knowles and Sabrina Pohlman), at Tacoma Art Museum May 23.

two of the most boring artists I have ever seen. Who the fuck gives out these awards??? Irrelevant and redundant work.

April Sargent makes amazing work. To be able to appreciate it fully go see it in person!! The subtle details in her pieces twinkle.

That's a beautiful piece of work. I knew a printmaker who warned us off ever falling in love with the engraving over the print, but even so. Really nice.
