I almost forgot to mention how much fun Aaron and I had at the Bemis Benefit auction!

Do you think Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres would have taken the time to put on a sparkly gown like a game show assistant before sharing preparation sketches of his artwork? No matter your answer, you can see this tiny painting in Omaha, NE during the 2025 Bemis Benefit Art Auction on October 24th.

If Henri Matisse had to reveal his paintings like a game show assistant, do you think he would have resorted to wearing a sparkly dress too? Anyway, you can see this small oil sketch of a bro as part of the 2025 Bemis Benefit Art Auction. The fundraiser will be October 24th in Omaha, Nebraska! The piece is titled Bro Sketch with Gold Curtain.

Bro Sketch with Gold Curtain is one of the little dudes I made while plotting out compositions for larger paintings. This small sketch is going to be included in the Bemis Center’s 2025 Benefit Art Auction. You can see this little guy at the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, 724 S. 12th Street Omaha, Nebraska October 10th-24th. If you’re too impatient to wait for the auction on October 24th, you can buy this artwork on October 1st.

I made Grande Bro Sketch with Atari last year in preparation for one of the paintings I created with support from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, and now this small sketch will be part of the Bemis Center’s 2025 Benefit Art Auction.
