RGV+Beyond: Joan Fabian: Physical meets Digital

Delft-Where we lived has been demolished.

In December 2009 I lived in this apartment as an artist in residence- part of the id11 Flatlands Foundation. Here is a video of it being demolished. The area is being upgraded and everyone had to move to make way for fancy new dwellings. During my time there I experience a wonderful Christmas with my husband John and the other artists that worked at the residency too. It was then that Delft experienced a big snow storm. It snowed so much that every train stopped and everyone started playing in the snow. A white Christmas is very special to me since I live in warm and sunny San Antonio.
I will never forget Poptahof and my time there.
Memories.
But I have my USA Artist Project and I have been utilizing the images during my stay in Delft so the paintings created from them will have captured the "essence" of that place.

First Digital Painting created for Culture by Color Project

I just completed the first digital painting of the project I have posted on
USA Projects called Culture by Color.  This painting will be transferred digitally to canvas if I obtain funds to do so. It will measure about 36 x 36" in size. Watch the short video to see how I did it since I captured some of the steps along the way!

My USA Artists Project: Culture by Color A Mapping Painting Series needs your help!

This project I am doing needs funds to produce a series of digital paintings to be shown at  Access Gallery in Austin, TX. I did the research and now I need to produce. Can you help me? Want to feel good helping an artist and letting me be a mentor for other artists with a disability. 



Your donation, no matter how large or small is tax deductible.

I have some great perks available for anyone that’s interested in supporting me in this effort, and if you can’t support the project financially, I’d love it if you helped to spread the word and tell your friends about it.

Come explore a new online community of America’s finest artists!

USA Projects is a community where America’s finest artists and those that love and support them can share their latest work, discover new artists, enter into a dialog with each other, and make direct donations (of any size, all of which are tax deductible) to new projects created by each artist. This is the first website in our knowledge that allows direct public donations between art patrons and accredited artists on the Internet.

Thank you for your support and interest,



Best regards,
Joan
