Batter sizzles, beer foams, and canvas lines the walls from ceiling to floor as hundreds, if not thousands, of revelers indulge in endless pancakes.

You had me at Pancakes and booze!

I like both of those things! AND since so much of my work already has food and booze at its subject matter, this is an event that was made especially for me.

So far I’ve been accepted to the shows in Austin, Oct 4 and Houston, Nov 15 but there will be on in San Antonio this December as well. Here are some of the works I already have along with more ideas I’ll be working on for these shows.

AVOCADO HAND: STIGMATA

11/2018 — 17.25″ x 21″

Acrylic, candles on used fence pickets.

TEJANA: HEIDI

02/2018 — 33.5″ x 34.5″

Acrylic on used fence pickets.

KEEP TACOS WEIRD

06/2016 — 43″ x 28″

Acrylic on used fence pickets.

  • Redo: Delayed Gratification – old men praying over tacos
  • Redo: Acrimony and Cheese – retro house wife flipping the bird over a crock pot full of cheese
  • Prickly Pear: Ice Cream – a vague idea about combining prickly pear cutout pieces and ice cream. Maybe growing out of an ice cream container
  • Prickly Pear: Shiner – a vaguer idea about combining prickly pear cutout pieces and Shiner beer. Growing out of an empty case…bottles scattered.
  • Mimosas and Mea Culpas – a not so vague idea but kind of still pretty vague featuring hung over woman or three gathered around, avoiding eye contact drinking mimosas at their brunch.
  • Butterworth virgin: I’ll manage to figure out what to do around a Mrs. Butterworth Virgin Mary idea.

Keep digging, WOODCOCK 🪏

Posted by WOODCOCK

After a long exile in South Texas climbing out of a nihilistic funk, Otis Woodcock has found his way back to the open skies and quiet horizons of the American prairie. Having earned an MFA from Miami University, Ohio, he left his ancestral home in southern Indiana, spending the last three decades between Louisville, Kentucky, and San Antonio, Texas, developing his Iconoclasmatic Pop Art™ practice. On this journey, an anxious recovering Catholic and cancer survivor gradually evolved into the optimistic existentialist whose work is less interested in providing answers than in questioning certainty. Today, Woodcock lives and works where the seasonal rhythms and expansive landscapes of the Midwest serve as the backdrop for an ongoing exploration of belief systems, cultural inheritance, and the subtle poetry of ordinary things.
