Some pretty cool stuff. I have been selected to be in a show in Denver Colarado in March. The name of the show is Eros Pulse. Its a show showcasing the human figure in art. Im very excited it looks like it will be an awesome show. They are publishing a book of the work in the show this year which I will be in. I ordered my copy if you would like a copy you can pick one up at.. http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/576959

Not as important but still cool. Earlier this week I had a sculpture I did for Cherrylion published in the New York Times. It was just a small picture with no credit for the artist but still pretty exciting. I will be posting some new work soon I promise, I have a ton of drawings that all need to be scanned and a bunch of photos to edit and some new sculpture work I PROMISE.

A "lion" for Cherrylion

Here is a couple pics of the 3' lion's head I have been sculpting for Cherrylion. This was one of the most challenging pieces I have ever sculpted, but I had a blast and really feel like I learned a lot. It will be installed as fountain head in a local building in Atlanta. Thanks to Marty, Elio, Joe, Bob, and Ulysses for the group critique it is always good to be led in the right direction by artist that you respect so much. I also attached a few sketches I have been playing around with in my free time ( ha ha).

Well....were to start? My sculpture classes have started back. I love the inspiration I get from my students. Thanks guys! Also Joe Karg has started teaching a drawing class at the studio, which is giving me some time to get some drawing in again. Thank God! As soon as I get around a working scanner I will post some. I just found out that got into a show in Colorado called ErosPulse (http://www.erospulse.com). Thanks to Bob Kelly for hooking me up with that info. I posted some new commission stuff that I have been working on at cherrylion to the website. I also posted some new photos in the photography section. Check out some of the pictures from my recent blairsville trip above.

New Pics.

Well my new year has been off to a great start. I have been sick for almost a week now. Thought it was the flu but now I have no idea. It did force me to step up and get health insurance. I was trying to wait on Obama. oh well. I uploaded some new stuff to the photography section on my website. I also joined Artshow.com. Check it out. My classes start back up next week so hopefully I will have some new stuff to show.

Sorry for the lack of post, it has been a long week. I just got some more tattoo work done by one of the best in the business, Rob Knight at Timeless Tattoo. I will post a couple pics when its all healed up. Anyway Rob is also an awesome photographer and left me totally inspired to do some more shooting. Im headed back to blairsville for a couple days so hopefully i will bring back some shots. Im also finishing up a couple of sculpture pieces at Cherrylion tomorrow so I will try to put up a couple pics. Here are a couple portriats of some close friends.

A day on the Farm

Im still working on those Pics of the Fort Worth Omni artwork. Meanwhile I have had a great couple of days. I went up to north Georgia to have lunch with one of my star students and former state senator, Jane Hemmer. She has a beautiful 400 acre farm that defiantly brought back some childhood memories. I took several pictures and posted a couple on my site. Check a pic of one of her oreo cows below. Today I got to build and armature for a large sculpture designed my Marty. Im really starting to love armature building. It is such great exercise. You have to think through so many steps while mixing so many materials. This one involved fabricated welded steel supports with expanded metal build outs. Below is a pic of the finished armature with the small scale maquett. Also my mom came by the studio to visit for the day. awesome. So as you can see below, I put her to work. one more thing, check out the Cherrylion Studios blog now up and running at www.cherrylion.com

Ok, I know i promised updates. I haven't had much time to get any of my work done lately. I did just give myself a new Christmas present though. I picked up a new digital slr canon, so some new pictures should be coming soon. This camera is sick, check out the quality of this shot of the most handsome dog in the world. Hopefully tomorrow we will be delivering several pieces of art we have been working on for the Fort Worth Omni Hotel. I will try to post some pics tomorrow night.-Kevin Chambers

I just turned 26 and figured I needed a blog. Long story long.... I'm a sculptor for a living, which means that I'm a " jack of all trades" in the art industry. I love to draw, paint, sculpt, photograph or just create. I'm have the great honor of being an apprentice to an incredible sculptor, Martin Dawe at Cherrylion Studios in Atlanta Georgia. I recently co-opened my first company with Martin, Cherrylion Workshop LLC. We do large production art casting, mainly for the hotel industry. I also teach 3 figurative sculpture classes to an amazing group of students at Cherrylion Studios. My classes just went on break until Jan. so I will try to keep this thing updated since I will have all that free time. HA HA. The workshop is working on a huge commission for a very prestigious hotel in Arizona, so my time is limited. I will try to update soon with some new sculpture, drawing and photography work. Check out my website for a full line of work www.kevinchambersart.com.
