As I prepare for brain surgery , I’m actually preparing for the future. I am a painter , not a patient. Saying yes to the surgery, is saying yes to life, to being an artist. Thank you for helping me appear in my own life.

{ Please inquire directly with PxP Contemporary Art Gallery about the two paintings labeled at the end of the carousel. They are from my ongoing series, Dark Bloom. They are available to collectors. Thank you }

Thank you to everyone so far who have messaged me, shared my fundraisers, donated, sent me good wishes, prayers , and more. You are helping me not just live through an experience, but be transformed. ❤️ I am proud to be an artist and most of all proud to be human.

It wasn’t the mold, it was something more dangerous and bad. I found out in September. I have no way of sharing this that doesn’t feel bad. I just feel really tired today. And I just want people to know I love them. Over the last week , I’ve clashed in convos with people, forgotten stuff, not remembered something , or fallen asleep. I’m doing the best I can. When I’ve felt a lot better than this I’ve made video toks and threads explaining what is happening. You can see the video @ charliesgardenapartment there. Thanks .

I am not the casual friend or partner. I love deep conversation and I want to know you inside and out, I offer myself up in the same way. It’s something about myself that I no longer look to change and see as instrumental to being alive, to existing. My life as an artist exists within the relational. My biggest teachers are other artists. We are all friends, but it’s so much more than that. I learn from them, I become better because of them. It’s everything actually …

Last night, Jen Hintz Eggers and Christopher Sumner Richards went out after the opening at Paradigm Gallery + Studio® and talked about how lovely it is to have dinner after an opening. I told stories about all the dinners I went to in Montreal after the exhibition opened, how it was such a huge part of the culture, of building relationships and how I wanted to bring that back in a big way. I care really deeply about the people in life. And after every dinner, every opening, every creative moment, my heart goes, oh I want more please.

I’m so proud to be in the pop-up show Paradigm Gallery + Studio® and to have helped celebrate Create! Magazine® ‘s 10 years of doing their thing because they aren’t casually in it either, they’re here for it all, big hearts , big love for art, big love for life. It inspires me to know that 10 years can build beautiful things and that there will be more dinners to come. Xo

When life feels scary or unknown, I put on music and I remember all the times in which a dinner , a painting, a joke , left me feeling connected , loved, and creative. And then I keep going.

RSVP to the Create! Magazine “10th Anniversary Meet & Greet + Pop-Up reception through the Create! Magazine® 🔗 in their bio or through my story! My painting “Revival at Sunset” will be on display. Come and see the work in person. I’m really excited to have this piece in a show. It was licensed by LA MER in 2024 and is part of my ongoing series “Dark Bloom”.

“Revival at Sunset” has a lot of luminous color, detailed subtle structures, and a glowing effect that creates a lot of emotional resonance. The title came from the idea of having a revival of the soul at the 11th hour; a break through moment of vitality, exuberance, and somatosensory connection. To inquire about collecting the piece, please reach out directly to PxP Contemporary Art Gallery .

The show is being held at the incredible Philly gallery Paradigm Gallery + Studio® . I feel really honored to be sharing my work in my home town amongst a group of talented artists, artist-run gallerists, magazine owners, and art entrepreneurs.

Ekaterina Popova I am so proud of you. 10 years of Create! Magazine is an incredible accomplishment. 🥂

Thank you to Ekaterina Popova and PxP Contemporary Art Gallery for going above and beyond to support me being in the show, picking up my work early, and coordinating other important matters, while I continue to balance my health & well-being. When I talk about concepts like fully-integrating working disabled artists into high-end contemporary spaces, offering accommodations whenever possible, and viewing our work as valuable contributions to the art world, Create! Magazine® and PxP Contemporary Art Gallery are incredible examples of this value system.

If you’re a disabled Philly artist who is working on their embracing their own timeline, while continuing to seek supportive opportunities, I hope you can make it out to the show. Come and meet everyone and enjoy a relaxed evening. RSVP for next Friday !

I’d also like to thank my art studio mate Christopher Sumner Richards for helping with get my painting to Kat from the studio, while I was recovering from a cluster headache infusion at Penn Medicine. Chris is a super talented painter who is super focused & makes a lot of amazing work!

🚬 I don’t actually care about Bradley on a Budget, I’m just having an internet ciggie . (But could be get a new towel please 🥲)

My amazing art studio mate crew went gallery hopping tonight. I tried to make it. I napped on the studio couch after teaching but my cluster headaches ramped up again. So instead they sent me this photo & photos of the shows 🥹 Christopher Sumner Richards Julia Grosso Samantha M. Connors

Chris (studio mate) has GIANT paintings up in a show. I wanna go swimming in it. He works so hard ! So happy for him 🥹 🌊 Christopher Sumner Richards

Thank you . I hope to make more soon when my brain behaves 🧠. Being disabled is doo doo, but I find my ways.

Why are we buying $60 bread from Rye bread from an Apple Support shop again? And not cobalt violet deep from Williamsburg Oil Paints . I pledge to never buy a $49 piece of toast , scouts honor.

I LOVE Create! Magazine® & PxP Contemporary Art Gallery . More to come soon about the show. Come to the opening, rsvp.

I had a dream recently that they removed a Gushers from my brain using tongs. Gushers, you’ll be hearing from my lawyers and my kitchen tongs.

Being 38 means I can look back with fondness for my own stupidity , miss the fearlessness of youth, and also acknowledge I was a little sh*t 😂🤓. 👋 I’m just so glad to have experienced living in Montreal for 5 years. Love shapes you.

“Think outside the box”, “Trust the process”, “Curiosity is your superpower” - We’ve all heard these kinds of vague generic statements from time to time. They are true but they leave us wanting more, flattening the complexity of our experiences as artists and creatives. So how do we avoid drowning in cliche? We build systems through language, we describe the true experience of what it means to be curious, to be creative, to be someone willing to take the risk of making.

The article I wrote for ShapeShifter_Art_School “The Portal of Curiosity” , is just the beginning of my attempt to outline and describe one of these structures. I am driven by an optimistic need to give myself (and others) something more than perfected a I slop soup or hallmark banalities. In this, I may not always get it right, but it’s in the exercise of writing, I hope to arrive at a failure worth sharing.

I hope you enjoy the article and that you stay tuned for more of my attempts. I have complete gratitude to anyone who reads and engages with my thought experiments. Thank you. - Charlie
