Some Quick Thoughts from Chris Sanders

Artist Series: Jason Middlebrook

This time I visited Jason Middlebrook up at his house and studio in Upstate New York. … He was working on some pieces for a show as well as more from his “Mushroom” series.

Artist Series: Tim Davis in the Woods

I had the pleasure of capturing Fine Art Photographer and Teacher Tim Davis on the prowl in the woods in upstate New York for my artists book project. … In this situation, Tim was very into this area of woods and roams deep into it

Artist Series: David Humphrey

He had sculpture in there, of course his paintings, and a great “creative” zone for his drawings and sketches. So much was going on there but he had a structure to the organization that I think helps him maintain his sanity including his guitar for breaks (he’s also in a band).

Artist Series: Lars Fisk

His pieces can be large and small but always made with the utmost care…. He works out of an outdoor space at the Socrates Sculpture Garden in Queens.

Artists Series: Visit with Pat Steir

Pat Steir Paintbrushes Pat Steir has this fantastic studio on 26th street that is filled with light and has high ceilings which give her plenty of room to make her massive paintings…. To create some of her work, she throws the paint at the canvas in various ways to create her luminous patterns and shapes.

Artists Series: Delia Brown

I shot her in her Brooklyn studio in her paint clothes not the high end clothes of her alter-ego. She was working on the continuation of a series of images that are based on the film, “Les Bitches.”

Artist Series: TM Davy

He has covered the walls with his work including some paintings which are painted right on the walls!… He quickly sketches the sitter than later pain-stakiingly adds the Carvaggio touches that he is known for.

Artist Series: Melissa Brown

Melissa Brown is on the ground floor of an old foundry in Greenpoint. She has an outdoor area to carve her woodcuts.

Artist Series: Mickalene Thomas

But I couldn’t resist this fun shot of a very energetic and colorful artist…. She insisted that it was only this organized because she had just finished up a large show.

Artist Series: Pedro Bardeito

His previous show had a lot of grids and building perspectives to it echoing his early life as an architecture student…. That’s part of the fun of these studio visits-to see how their minds work as they figure out the next piece.
