By J.D. Hillard | KUSP - Santa Cruz’s apartment and workspace complex for artists, the Tannery Art Center, has been healing after an eight year old girl who lived there was murdered. Artists at the Tannery say that healing involves continuing to teach classes and host art exhibitions - such as today’s First Friday Art Tour. In preparation, artist Glenn Carter was putting final touches on Carter's show, "A Specific Weakness." The show's opening takes place as part of First Friday. Carter's highly complex paintings and assemblage works hang on the walls. The pieces are all black, gray and white with carefully added instances of red. One series involved three layers of canvas, stitched and glued together with gesso. Carter then applied enough paint so the pieces record the flow of the pooled fluid. He then added ash to the surface and craftsman-like stitching. "I see these kind of desert ocean expanse landscape horizons with kind of rain of cloud shapes," he says. Each piece deserves the kind of time from viewers that he's talking about. Around the corner digital painter Linda Levy preps her studio for Friday evening. She plans to demonstrate the process she uses to layer computer images of text or rushed metal or painted walls with figures, mostly nudes. Image may be NSFW.
