UPDATE [8/29/10] I've added two new gallery sections, more for fun than anything else.  One is for photographs and another is for sculpture, mainly because of an impromptu chainsaw carving which I had alot of fun doing.

UPDATE [8/26/10] I've started a new painting, its going to be a study/reproduction of Euan Uglow's " S ".  The preview/first two sessions can be viewed under the Process Made Visible page.   It is very odd to do this because of his unique method of painting does not lend itself very well to being copied.  The details are miniscule while being of a casual nature, paint removal and mineral spirit washes are so dynamic it's amazing.  I've got a lot of hours to go on this one.

UPDATE [7/27/10] I have a new show in the works, but its not 100% yet.  I should have a piece in a show in London in the near future, stay posted for pics.  In the meantime, check out the process made visible page for a preview of a new painting I'm starting.

UPDATE [6/11/10] A big thanks to everyone that came out yesterday!  Sorry for those of you that got there after the show winded down, but I hope you still all had a good time.  If I failed to get any contact information from any of you yesterday, if if you'd just like to keep in touch you can email me at actualyalexander@aim.com or through my contact page.  

UPDATE [5/27/10] The State House show has been pushed back to June 10th, 4pm-6pm.  For more details see the below entry.  Also check out my new painting, " Tempahmental, Judgementahl " on the portfolio page.

UPDATE [5/13/10] State House Show Reception is June 10th, 4pm - 6pm.  It is in room 34 and the entrance to the floor is off Bowdoin St. ( the Ashburton Park Entrance ).  If you'd like to view or purchase work before the reception date, please call the state house and ask for room 34, although that is for serious patrons and close friends only.

UPDATE [5/05/10] One man show at the State House in Boston Mass. May 10th - June 10th, reception TBA.
