The last four years in my studio at 333 Midland have been a period of tremendous growth, and I’m excited to carry that momentum forward in a new, larger studio at 333

Sketching in the Wild /  by Taurus Burns

Not many people know this but twenty+ years ago I spent a couple summers sitting out on the sidewalk, doing portraits for money in Detroit’s Greektown. Back then I was in art school with dreams of getting my paintings into museum collections, so while drawing this self-portrait in the museum’s Art Lab while waiting to meet some friends, I couldn’t help but reflect on my journey from then to now.

MOVEMENT /  by Taurus Burns

I made a painting based on my “Detroit is for Art Lovers” sketch for the upcoming group exhibit “Movement”. The show opens June 8 at the General Motors Design Center Gallery and features artists from the Cadillac Design studio, where I work as an automotive clay sculptor.
