Hello!
Welcome to the new blog. The old blog is still accessible but for some reason I can't post anything new on there anymore. I had the same problem with the guestbook so I decided to pitch them both and start anew. The whole site will be getting another facelift over the next month and I will be adding more of my newer work. Stay tuned! So many projects are in the works-- this year is going to be jam-packed with new art and plenty of shows. If you haven't already, be sure to bookmark www.deadlineprojects.com for the latest info on upcoming art shows. We have kicked our event planning up a few notches to put together a solid year of events. In the nearest future you can look forward to our next show on April 5th titled "Bigger Than Your Life"-- which is also our one-year anniversary show! In keeping tradition with our hard work and dedication, this show will prove to be our best show to date. Don't miss it-- check out the details below and mark your calendar:

Bigger Than Your Life
A one-night art event not to be missed: Deadline Projects's one-year anniversary show!
Deadline Projects is proud to present Bigger than Your Life, a multi-media one-night art exhibition. This time around, Deadline Projects attempts to grapple with ideas that are bigger than our brains can handle and make sense of them using installation, print, painting, photography and sculpture.
We're all surrounded by things and concepts that are huge and unknowable in their entirety. The Iraq war is one example- it's so much bigger than any one person at this point, and as a single human we can have difficulty approaching the subject in a workable way. Or, technological progression- it moves so fast and touches so many parts of our lives, but the average person has very little input to direct and control it. We get caught up in these events and ideas without comprehending fully their true meaning, and the most common course of action is to ignore large parts of the problem and simply deal with what's in front of us.
