Tad (2018) 12" x 12"

Introducing Tad - one of the Beer Puppies created for the Dane County Humane Society Fund Benefit. Beer Puppies are groovy, pop,  burning fuse and acrylic paintings made on coated paper. Each has their own personality.  As a group they are a blast! 

Each puppy is for sale for $150. (Delivery, if needed, is billed separately at cost.)

$100 of each sale will go to DCHS.

Beer Puppies will be on display until April 8th and can be picked up at Waypoint Public House after that date.

18-inch, square, black metal frame with glass and 3-inch white matt.

Primitive, modern, and abstract - a Stick Vega original.  

American gunpowder artist, Vega places powder and fuses on the surface of the board, which he positions horizontally on the floor. When ignited, first the fuses burns instantly along the cord lines, igniting the gunpowder and creating loud bangs and flashes of fire, which then vanish in clouds of smoke. The result is a textured surface that looks and feels like an explosion—the acrylic paint on panel is blackened, charred, and erupted, arrested in a state of being created in a flash.

When the fuse is lit there a moment of uncertainty. What will happen? It is at that moment that true art exists.
