Rabbit Girl by Deirdre Sullivan-Beeman

“Girls, Girls, Girls” will feature 13 new paintings, all executed in the time-intensive egg tempera medium for which Sullivan-Beeman is known. In a “Creators” piece on her for Vice, Tanja Laden wrote, “Egg tempera was the medium of choice for Old Masters like Michelangelo, but once oil paint replaced it in the early 16th century, the once-omnipresent art technique became quickly antiquated. Now, Deirdre Sullivan-Beeman is resurrecting the use of egg tempera in her dreamlike paintings, while also reminding audiences of the archaic medium’s characteristically mysterious sense of illumination.” The exhibition will also feature a painted resin sculpture of “Turtle Girl” (painting pictured below), and an original drawing of the same work. Recently, Sullivan-Beeman had a piece in “In My Head – Visionari Contemporanei,” a group exhibition at Merino Bottega D’arte in Florence, Italy, and at the Life Is Beautiful Music and Art Festival in Las Vegas, NV (for the second consecutive year). She has previously shown at La Luz de Jesus (where her last solo show sold out) and Corey Helford Gallery in Los Angeles,Greg Moon Art in Taos, New Mexico, and Stephen Romano Gallery in New York City.
