Ew. Award ceremonies tend to be long and tedious enough. This sounds horrible to sit through.

Awesome!

You'd be surprised how handy having a sparky gown is! Ha, ha!

This looks good!

Many thanks! (I honestly don't recall what Atari it was because I borrowed it.)

I like that idea! If I ever run an auction, I want to give that a try.

Klaire Lockheart @klairelockheart.bsky.social · 1d

Ha, ha! Thank you! It's not a very practical way to dress, but it is fun.

Most of my clothes are exactly how you described in the first sentence. The sparkly dress is just for laughs!

In all my research about Renaissance art, I never came across that fact - ha, ha!

Do serious artists flip around their paintings like game show assistants? Regardless, this little guy is part of the 2025 Bemis Benefit Art Auction. Save the date for October 24th in Omaha, NE

Thank you!

Klaire Lockheart @klairelockheart.bsky.social · 2d

Yes!

Klaire Lockheart @klairelockheart.bsky.social · 2d

Are there any other artists lamenting the lack of outlandish and generous patrons?

Tee-hee! It makes me happy that you get my sense of humor!

Klaire Lockheart @klairelockheart.bsky.social · 2d

Thank you! This painting is part of a larger series of brodaliques that I named after all those odalisques from classic paintings. I'm glad you see my art history references!

Many thanks! Chloe Gallery in San Fransisco currently has two of my paintings, but I would love an excuse to bring more work to California!
