New Website

I now have an official website as well as an updated visual style for the blog. After a few days of work and some false starts it came together pretty quickly. Let me know your overall thoughts.

The Art of Jason Cytacki

Process

This image shows a bit of the process I am using to construct me new work. I built this wooden structure this past summer as a place to shoot my dioramas. It's great in that it allows me to control the light and gives me plenty of room away from my paintings to stage my setups and leave them with the ability to come back and tinker with them.

Figurative works from the summer

I know I've been very behind on uploading new images to the blog, but like I mentioned I have been getting images taken of these paintings recently, so I thought I would share them here. Both are pretty small and were a nice break from the large scale work I have been doing for my upcoming thesis exhibition (I'll post some pics of those pieces soon).
