I Heart Leadville, Colorado

I do. I heart Leadville. I'll finish discussing why later.

Oil In Outerspace

I’m very intrigued with OIL. The role that oil plays in our everyday lives, on this planet and the massive scale of overconsumption by humans. So, I’ve been playing with different forms of oil and studying the reactions that occur when you place it with other substances. I think it looks pretty. It’s a good thing no one really reads my blog, otherwise I’d be paranoid that someone might steal my ideas.

Like Watching Paint Dry

Sometimes my life feels like I am watching paint dry, or maybe I feel more like dry old paint on a rusty nail. But I think that I'm a nice colour at least, or I have interesting texture. The oxidation process that turns nails to rust is the same that turns my hair platinum shades of blonde. I love the colours of old doors and wooden structures that have seen more years of weathering than my short twenty-six year old life. Door knobs and fence posts abandoned homes haunted by ghosts, churches in fields and old wagon wheels. Stagecoaches and tractors...

From the series, "Like Watching Paint Dry" Babylon, NY and Lafayette, CO, 2006.

Group Art Show Friday Oct 17 - Babylon Village

This Friday evening from 7:00-9:00pm, there will be an art exhibition at the Nathaniel Conklin House in Babylon Village, NY. I will be exhibiting 2 pieces of art, two large framed framed black and white photographs to be specific. The show benefits this historic site, which was built in 1803. So come, stop by, drink wine, and see art and me and my friends. Thanks!!

Autumn and I'm Leaving

Artwork on Display @ Lucy's in Babylon

Greetings! After much procrastination I have finally installed my artwork at Lucy's Bistro in Babylon Village. For those of you who live more exciting places, this is on Long Island. Lucy's is a great little cafe tucked in an alley way with live music, a great wine list and tasty food, and my artwork of adourning the walls!

Desperately missing Colorado and my adventures gallavanting around the Southwest, I decided to juxtapose a series of shots from my vast travels west of the Mississippi with super macro shots of cactus and flowers from around the world. They are framed in old white window panes, a very neat creation that i have envisioned for some time.

The show will run until November, whenI will have an artist reception from 4-7pm, (I have to finalize the date with the owners) where you can come and drink wine, eat cheese, and purchase artwork. Hope to see you there.

Directions to Lucy's can be found on their website: http://www.lucysbistro.com/

Any questions please call me @ (631)278-9514 or email me at contact@sarafurey.com

My website is slowly coming to fruition, I'm trying to decide which photographs to upload, which is a stressful process since I will be using the site to showcase my portfolio to graduate admissions at Yale and R.I.S.D. Any suggestions? Check back soon! http://www.sarafurey.com/
