Drawing and painting animals and people from an early age shaped a lifelong focus on the figure\, with nature consistently influencing the work. For nearly three decades\, he has explored how a single moment can suggest a larger narrative\, using the universal language of the body and face to engage the viewer’s imagination. After years of representational work grounded in anatomy\, light\, and shadow\, the practice has evolved toward abstraction through the deconstruction and exaggeration of the figure. Most recently\, this exploration has moved off the canvas into sculptural works made from layered\, finely cut\, sanded\, and painted wood\, reflecting an evolving process that embraces texture\, tactility\, and formal freedom. \n\n\n\nLearn more at gregoryshilling.com URL:https://www.tenaciousgoods.com/event/in-the-cut-at-prism-art-space/ LOCATION:California ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.tenaciousgoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/In-the-Cut.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251205T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251220T170000 DTSTAMP:20251009T210602Z CREATED:20251009T210319Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251009T210602Z UID:9612-1764921600-1766250000@www.tenaciousgoods.com SUMMARY:Spark Mart at Prism Art Space DESCRIPTION:Apply Now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, December 5\, 2025 from 6-9pm\n\n\n\nSaturday\, December 6\, 2025 from 10-1pm\n\n\n\nFriday\, December 12\, 2025 from 6-9pm\n\n\n\nSaturday\, December 13\, 2025 from 10-1pm\n\n\n\nFriday\, December 19\, 2025 from 6-9pm\n\n\n\nSaturday\, December 20\, 2025  from 10-1pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApply Now URL:https://www.tenaciousgoods.com/event/sparkmart/ LOCATION:Prism Art Space\, 2120 K Street\, Sacramento\, California\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.tenaciousgoods.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Spark-Mart-Promo.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251115T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251129T140000 DTSTAMP:20251031T182333Z CREATED:20251029T173427Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251031T182333Z UID:9637-1763208000-1764424800@www.tenaciousgoods.com SUMMARY:Family Photo Workshop (Nov 15th or 29th) DESCRIPTION:A personal\, handmade holiday gift for you or your special people! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’ll start by scanning your photos and printing them onto a sublimation transfer letter-sized paper.

Soft. Cuddly. Deadly. These AI creatures learned to assemble and inhabit plush toys\, using them as camouflage to terrorize humanity. But we don’t run. We hunt. We are the resistance\, tracking and disassembling the Bots that seek to sow chaos. We take them down\, stitch by stitch\, and display their pelts with pride. They call us cruel. They call us monsters. We call it survival. Stuffed: The Resistance — hug at your own risk.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith so much feeling out of our control\, we imagined a future where we had the power to fight back and protect others. The stuffed animals represent promises that once seemed sweet—like solving debt or ending wars—but turned out to be toxic and self-serving. Soft on the outside\, harmful underneath.

On those days when I felt burned out—just being creative in a small way felt good. Friends encouraged me to transform those doodles into something more tangible so I cut them out of paper\, then wood\, then aluminum. During this process of sanding\, priming\, spraying on layers of color and clear-coat these shapes took on new meaning.  \n\n\n\nThe curves\, shadows\, and gradients ebb and flow like thoughts and routines. Named like runes and fortunes\, they playfully answer silent questions and bring lightness and color to indoor or outdoor spaces. Reminding you that life is joyous even when it feels less so. \n\n\n\nAt the end of each day there is always more work to do. So fuck that noise and relax.  \n\n\n\nWhat do you want more of?  \n\n\n\nLight up that intention. Whether it’s to drink more water\, walk the dog or have more sex (or naps). The doodle pointing at the faucet\, leash\, or bed will remind you to live loudly and rest proudly. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeaturing new works in aluminum by Sacramento artist Heather Hogan\, Soft & Hard\, brings flowing shapes and gradient colors on cut metal to the East room of Axis Gallery. A mix of soft curves and hard metal evoking shooting stars\, spirit guides\, and ancient language fill the space. An ode to color\, technology\, and positive/negative space\, this exhibition invites the viewer to delight in these playful works.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeather Hogan is a Sacramento-based artist\, professor\, and designer who layers modern and traditional media into colorfully detailed compositions. Her joyful and layered artworks often collage analog materials with digitally-designed elements and community-sourced upcycled or unconventional materials. Public participation and education are strong elements in her practice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThemes explored in her work include placemaking\, tenacity\, and the roles and responsibilities of women. Her recent public art projects focus on a community’s sense of pride in place through visual branding based on public input. Her artwork has graced the covers of magazines\, beautified bike trails and highways\, and can be seen in solo and group shows throughout California. \n\n\n\nMs. Hogan teaches art workshops and classes in web design and modern making at Sacramento City College. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition begins on Friday\, June 6\, 2025 and runs through June 29\, 2025. The public is invited to attend the opening reception on Second Saturday\, June 14 at 5 – 8 pm. Axis Gallery is located at 625 S Street in Sacramento\, CA.

By observing the questions and challenges of your peers you will gain valuable insights into common usability\, technical\, and design issues across all website platforms. \n\n\n\nWhere previous workshops in 2023 have been free to you\, they were generously sponsored by the City of Sacramento Office of Arts and Culture. This continued education is coordinated\, marketed\, and performed by just me. To cover my time and expenses I ask that you invest $25 per hour for this educational opportunity.

Show runs August 5-29th \n\n\n\nRebecca and Rachel Have the Same Goal\n\n\n\nAbout the Exhibition (From axisgallery.org)\n\n\n\nAxis Gallery is proud to present In Limbo\, our 18th National Juried Exhibition featuring juror Emily Zaiden. From her essay about the exhibition: \n\n\n\n“This year\, as we come further out of the black hole expanse of pandemic time\, life for many of us is still very much about reassessment. We entered a new mode as restrictions and the public health emergency ended\, following years of unclarity\, inconsistency\, and flux. We are that much closer to a new normal\, and we even have a bit of distance now to examine what we experienced. Much of the work here reflects and addresses the sense of re-emergence that has characterized our lives over the past year. Hesitancy\, fear\, sadness\, instability\, and loss also flow throughout. Wrapped up amongst all of this\, there are beams of hope for renewal.[…] These artists succeed in making us question the survival of beauty in an era of destruction\, division\, violence\, and death. Some works stem from the shock and anger we have felt countless times over the last few years. Others help us see and seek the beauty that exists in life and in our world. Abundant jolts of color characterize many of these works. These pieces\, even when they capture the tragic\, are ultimately optimistic and energetic because they are inherently constructive acts. Abstractions and still life overflow with light and vitality. There is a skilled and nuanced attentiveness to detail\, composition\, and structure across media. They all remind us that beauty is a fragile and fleeting force and thankfully\, they remain dedicated to its depiction.” \n\n\n\nAbout the Juror\n\n\n\nEmily Zaiden is director and curator of the Craft in America Center in Los Angeles\, where she has organized over seventy contemporary art\, craft\, and design exhibitions for the Center and partner museum venues since 2010. Zaiden oversees public programs\, a K-12 education initiative\, and digital projects\, including the development of an online Craft Video Dictionary for Craft in America. She publishes catalogs\, essays\, and articles for journals and books including Archives of American Art Journal\, American Tapestry Alliance\, Metalsmith\, Ettore Sottsass: Architect and Designer and Consuelo Jimenez Underwood (2022). She has served as juror and lectured widely. Zaiden has an M.A. from the Winterthur Program in American Material Culture and has focused on craft processes\, functional design\, cultural art\, and craft from a historical lens throughout her work. She was Research Associate to the Decorative Arts and Design department at LACMA and research editor for Architectural Digest prior to joining Craft in America.
