Meet the Artists Featured in BARNWOOD 2026

Greetings! I’m a graduate of the Columbus College of Art and Design currently residing in New York City with my dear husband and far too many books. Through theater design, retail display, illustration, fine art and more, I strive to bring fun, whimsy, and a handmade touch to everything I do.

Gary Avanzato’s works have been exhibited in galleries since 2000. Born in Pittsburgh, Gary moved to the capital region of New York as a young adult. He has studied with Louise Lemieux-Berube at the Montreal Centre of Contemporary Textiles and Brooks Hagen at the Rhode Island School of Design.

Originally from the Pacific Northwest, Brad Barnhurst relocated to Washington, D.C. to be with his partner. When he’s not working in the service/entertainment industry, Brad enjoys playing computer games on the couch, with a fruity drink, wearing nothing but a robe. Brad has been creating paper mosaics since 2015.

After hand-cutting colors and textures from specialized paper, Brad assembles and glues the pieces to form portraits and erotic scenes.

Brad’s work has been displayed in several exhibitions including: Alberta Street Gallery (PDX), Scandals (PDX), Seattle Erotic Arts Festival, The Tom of Finland Emerging Artist Competition, the DC Eagle, various PRIDE events, as well as in private collections in the US and internationally.

Longtime collage artist Jay Blotcher first began working in the collage medium in 1981. He creates pieces calculated to challenge. They reflect his progressive political motivations and a lifelong career in the queer community, from working as towel boy at the St. Marks Baths to later serving as spokesperson for the founding chapters of ACT UP and Queer Nation. Blotcher is also co-founder of New Paltz Pride March & Festival and the Hudson Valley LGBTQ Community Center.

His tableaux explore recurring themes: the dynamic of sexual repression at the heart of homophobia, the joy of homoerotic desire, and the chronic demonization of LGBTQ people. His artwork incorporates vintage paper, photos, yearbooks, schoolbooks, medical journals, magazine ads and other ephemera that date from the 1870s to the 1990s.

Blotcher’s work resides in the private collections of renowned sodomites across the United States.

Matthew Conway is a multi-medium artist working with the idea of contemporary masculinity and vulnerability.

Andrew S. Evans Jr. is an artist known for exploring surreal themes through printmaking and multimedia. Evans’ education includes biological sciences, zoology, taxonomy, and entomology with an emphasis on tick and mosquito-borne diseases. Artworks are inspired by Evans’ long career as a public health official who successfully managed government response to health crises ranging from HIV to COVID19. A melding of education and career experience influences his work expressed through nightmarish imagery evoking Hieronymus Bosch with a modern sensibility.

Anthropomorphized characters depict disease vectors as animals or viral cells in human clothing. The human-like vectors suggest powerful and organized creatures with sinister intent to spread deadly illnesses. He enjoys exploring this theme through watercolor, acrylic, photography, and sculpture.

Born in 1960, in Poughkeepsie, New York, he is finishing study at Dutchess Community College where he will receive an AAS in Fine Arts. Past shows include Mildred I. Washington Art Gallery, Opalka Art Gallery and Barnwood. Evans now thrives in the artistic community of Beacon, New York.

Miguel Espinoza has been interested in art his entire life. He began drawing and painting at a young age and has always been inspired by color in nature and how it affects the human psyche. Using various media, he paints from life and references photographs to extract expressive shapes and colors. His work is not overly concerned with exact representation but rather composition and balance. He often paints on large canvases to draw the viewer into the work. He graduated with honors and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Art from the University of Hawaii, Manoa. He has done commission artwork for various art collectors and has exhibited in Honolulu, Hawaii, Long Beach, California, Hudson Valley, New York and most recently in Washington, D.C. His work was selected to participate in a traveling exhibit in Columbia, South America. He was assistant Preparator at the Contemporary Museum in Makiki Heights in Oahu, Hawaii and coordinated College Art 1990. He was a Museum Assistant at the Phillips Collection and a volunteer at the Smithsonian Institution.

Carl Grauer grew up in Wilson, Kansas, a town of 800 people. He likes to say he was raised between the “N” and the “S” of Kansas because it was in the absolute middle of the state. After childhood, he completed a degree in human biology and an MFA in medical illustration from the University of Kansas and Michigan, respectively.

Eventually finding their way to Brooklyn, New York, he worked in advertising for many years and co-owned a small business offering second-hand goods, antiques, collectibles, and fine art all the while wishing for the courage to make art more seriously. Upon the sudden death of his brother in 2012, they committed a life to an authentic pursuit of making art.

Now a practicing artist based in Poughkeepsie, NY in the beautiful Hudson Valley, he primarily works in oil, painting from observation, intuition, and surrealism. Having been originally trained as a medical illustrator, their training was extended continuing education in various representational drawing and painting studios and other practicing artists. He shows work locally, nationally, and internationally, including exhibiting with the Carrie Haddad Gallery in Hudson, NY, and the Royal Society of Portrait Painters in London.

Oscar Zamora Graves is a gay collage and assemblage artist. He is an avid collector and archiver of vintage physique photography. He grew up in Orange County, and moved to San Francisco at 18. He studied Art and Art History at San Francisco State University and apprenticed as a decorative painter under Warner Graves.

His interests in queer art and political history heavily influence his art. He first became aware and inspired by artists like James, Bidgood, Harry Bush, and George Quaintance through a Queer art history class in his senior year of college. Slowly, the subject matter of his collages became more focused on models from Physique Pictorial and The Male Figure. He began collecting original physique magazines and large photo books from Fabulosa Books, The Magazine, and Auto Erotica. In 2021, he volunteered for the Bob Mizer Foundation, where he helped tag, organize, and catalog thousands of Mizer’s original film slides and learned about many more gay photographers like Mel Roberts, Walter Kundzicz, and Roy Dean. His magazine and book collection is ever-expanding and open to the public. (just ask)

His collages innovatively combine traditional and digital media. He scans images from original vintage magazines to create digital collages in Photoshop, prints the individual elements onto photo paper, cuts them out, and then reassembles them as three-dimensional pop-up paper collages. The result is a digital mixed-media composition masquerading as a traditional collage.

His art embraces the bold spirit of the 1960s by placing scantily clad beefcake models in vibrant, psychedelic, fantasy settings. His collages blend nostalgia with queer maximalism to offer a unique perspective of modern gay erotic art through a fusion of physique and fantasy.

Edgar Hartley is a polymathic printmaker and artist born in Lubbock, Texas in 1963. He received his BA from the University of Kansas in 1986 and continued his Masters’ studies in Nanjing, China.

Hartley has exhibited in the US and abroad including the HOLLAR Gallery in Prague and has been collected by the Contemporary Museum in Baltimore and various private collectors. His printmaking practice encompasses many and various techniques which include etching, lithography and photogravure, as well as paper lithography, collagraphy, linoleum relief printing and silkscreen. He is currently pursuing his MFA degree at SUNY New Paltz. His work is heavily influenced by queer politics and Vajrayana Buddhist teachings.

In his post-meditation time, Edgar is also a poet and podcaster, living and working within all his auspicious phenomena in New York State.

Chuck Hettinger (b. 1953), a New York state native (Buffalo/Niagara Falls), has lived and worked in New York City since 1979. His acclaimed and published decorative painting work draws inspiration from his childhood pop art influences. Since 2003 he has focused on the male nude, drawing from life and capturing the moment in quickly rendered drawings using large format colored paper and acrylic paint markers. He has exhibited at Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art, Danceteria, the Ace Hotel, the Fashion Institute of Technology, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and the Provincetown Art Association and Museum.

Honicki is also a media arts educator who has been working in the field for over 25 years. He earned a BFA at the State University of New York at Albany and received his MS in Art Education at the College of Saint Rose. 

Honicki is a visual storyteller who constructs dramatic vignettes providing viewers his perspectives on the underlying themes of love, relationships, loss, & hope in our queer culture. He recently has begun to explore the nude male figure in his work; examining the relationship between the figure and the space in which they inhabit. 

Photographs from his narrative series, “Between Heaven & Hell”, “Coupling”, “A Solitary Man”, and “The Book of James” were exhibited as part of a two-person show, “Biography” at the Photo Center of the Capital Region, Troy, NY, and a solo exhibition, “The Simplicity of Life” at the 39th Street Gallery in Brentwood, Maryland.

When children are born for the first few weeks they see things in black and white: even now as an adult I still view things in this context. As an artist and a man living with HIV/AIDS for over three decades now I therefore tend to view ordinary life situations in the same way, despite the current fascination with shades of grey. Using ordinary objects which of course have their own innate symbolism my works reflect this personal view… Negative/Positive, gay/straight, yes/no, fat/thin, pretty/ugly, health/illness, and birth/death. This particular series of works executes in the absolute positive/negative of the ubiquitous dominoes’ suggests: lucky/unlucky?

Daniel’s pieces – designed and handmade under his banner Xanadude Lighting – is designed and handmade in his studio using real materials, traditional fabrication techniques, and plenty of hands-on experimentation.

No 3D printing. No AI-generated products. No mass production.

Each light sculpture is physically cut, shaped, assembled, wired, and finished by hand. Many pieces also incorporate vintage, antique, reclaimed, or unexpected materials that I transform into something entirely new.

Because everything is handmade, subtle variations and imperfections are part of the work—not manufacturing defects. They’re evidence that your piece was made by a person, not produced by a machine.

Original ideas. Real materials. Made by hand.

Mike Marcus is a California Bay Area-native. He grew up in his mother’s weaving studio and clothing store in the heart of a thriving art community and began making and selling jewelry at a very young age. The studio and shop was located above internationally-renowned glass blowers and by the time he was ten years old, he’d adopted glass as a primary medium; this continued through my early 30s.

Mike’s creative practice has always been intertwined with community. However, there was always a disconnect between the jewelry that he made and the people who it resonated with. They weren’t *his* community. They were often the mothers of guys who he went to school with (and who he was secretly attracted to).

For many years Mike repressed his attraction to men, terrified of the potential social, familial, and career consequences of his sexuality. As he became more comfortable with his sexuality, he became less comfortable with an art form that didn’t have personal resonance, or resonance with the community that he identified with. As a result, Mike went on a creative hiatus for over five years.

In 2021, Mike knew that he had to re-engage his artist self and was fortunate to rediscover his love of printmaking. Mike was simultaneously inspired by various San Francisco queer artists and over the past few years, he’s been re-discovering his creative voice. One that is fully integrated with his personal identity. Exploring the subject matter of male eroticism and intimacy through a fine art medium is at once an irreverent celebration of who and what Mike finds beautiful, and simultaneously an indignant political rebuke to the cultural taboos surrounding homosexuality.

What is hidden is seen and what is seen is hidden. All of my work has this duality. The artist mixes his own colors using neon and blacklight reactive acrylic paints. Each of the pieces is a painting within a painting. The light will reveal it all.

Maldonado’s work has two sides, two personalities within each canvas. The blacklight will reveal its secretive or hidden side. This duality exists everywhere and within everything. Using different light sources allows him to bring this duality to life on his canvases. Bold vivid colors bring my masculine portraits to life. The colors soften their gruff and tough exterior, revealing a softer more human side. Thus bringing to light the duality of these men and their lives. When illuminated by the blacklight the scene changes to a more mysterious and alluring atmosphere. The tension builds. The artist wants the play of light and color to invite the viewer to create their own narrative about these men, their lives and experiences, while also asking the viewer to question what is masculinity? How is it perceived and displayed?

JTM Artworks is the gay erotic artworks of Jeffrey Todd Moore. Moore is a self taught artist, watercolor painter, digital photo manipulator and glass artist, using both stained glass and fused glass.

He has been making art since 2006, but Covid opened up the online world, showing him that there was a place for gay erotica and phallic art. This is the artist’s third time being a part of BARNWOOD.

A self-taught artist, Murphy started Totally Wired Sculpture in 2002 and has gradually spent more time in the creative process, which provides a strong contrast to his work as a child therapist, primarily dealing with issues of trauma.

His work can be seen as a lighthearted line drawing in the medium of steel wire. Often political and humorous, themes are incorporated which can challenge or amuse the viewer leaving them uplifted.

The goal of each piece is to create kinetic movement from the tension in the wire so that the figures seem to dance or sway on their own and appear enlivened. Mythological themes and tales of transformations dominate, illustrating the power of art to help us change and grow.

Since the early 80’s, stained glass has been Andy’s muse and mentor, fine tuning the connections between his inner self and the outer world.

From the point of inspiration, through the act of putting pencil to paper, and on into the vision of adapting colors and textures into the craft of rendering, shaping and assembling, his stained glass works can range from flights of fanciful whimsy as an expression of the moment, to an esoteric essay of one’s place on this mortal coil. Each window, lamp, terrarium, chime or mobile is visual poetry, a sonnet, a meditation of its own luminous self.

Commissions, as these three pieces here in the Barnwood Show were initially, are inherently exciting. Incorporating the concepts, ideas and wishes of the client into a design idea, then blending this inspiration with the themes, colors and ambience of the ultimate destination of the piece, gives my pencil a place to land on the paper. From then on, the drawing takes on a life of its own, as the dance between the art and the artist begins.

Peter Pascucci is a queer NY-based Director of Photography represented by Innovative Artists. His unique approach to storytelling has gained recognition in the branded space by focusing on socially conscious and unexpected narratives. His attention to sensitive subject matter has yielded an award-winning balance of marketing and entertainment that delivers a memorable and thought-provoking reaction from viewers, as evidenced by awards from the Tribeca Film Festival and the Clio Awards. Peter’s documentary and interview work has taken him across the country, profiling marginalized groups and crafting emotionally riveting stories from real people’s lives. His goal is to create work that starts a conversation and creates lasting relationships between brands and consumers.

JJ Quinn is a queer pop artist, primarily working in acrylics and mixed media. Known for his bold line-work, whimsical figures, and saturated color palette, JJ’s work explores what turns us on in a playful, sexy, yet approachable way.

JJ Quinn’s brand also represents a trans-owned and operated platform – with an ethos that every queer body deserves space and recognition in art. By seamlessly joining elements of both pop and erotic art, JJ’s work aims to elicit a sense of joy that is sure to bring a smile to your face.

JJ has exhibited work solo and in several group shows, such as The Tom of Finland Foundation in Los Angeles, Art Gaysel in conjunction with Art Basel Miami and more. His work is amongst private collections throughout the country. JJ most recently celebrated his first solo-show in Provincetown’s Gallery Lacombe.

He holds a BFA in Costume Design from Missouri State University. Hand currently lives in New York City with his grumpy senior cat, Capote. (Yes, like Truman).

Guelmo Rosa born In Puerto Rico and raised in the Bronx. Rosa has earned two Bachelor’s degrees; one as an English Teacher and the second as a fine arts painter. He moved back to NY in 2012 and has been exploring his sexuality and fetishes through his art.

Rosa has been working with metals for more than a decade, and they have become his primary art medium. Osa is constantly evolving and changing as he digs deeper into my queerness. Each day he discovers something new about himself and utilizes his craft as the medium through which he expresses and shares his personal evolution. To live as his authentic self is to allow himself to continue exploring his queerness. The artist is focused on taking his mistakes and learning from them, and to be as unapologetic as possible while navigating through this world so that he can continue to stay strong for future generations.

Ryan Rudewicz (better known as @RudePolaroids) is a Polaroid and film photographer based in Brooklyn capturing Queer life. He is the winner of the 2023 Glam Award as New York’s best nightlife photographer and just recently had his first solo gallery in Provincetown this summer. Ryan’s first time showing his work was at Barnwood in July 2021 and he’s thrilled to be back.

Born in 1946 in New York City, Taddei’s artistic journey began with formal training at the University of Toledo and Pratt Institute, where he initially pursued architecture before dedicating himself to fine art. His early exposure to Europe’s grand museums during a formative 1967 trip ignited a lifelong passion for the heroic traditions of painting, particularly the Venetian 17th-century school.

Taddei’s interplay of geometry, light, and illusion draws viewers into a dreamlike world where reality is both celebrated and subverted. Renowned for his sensual male nudes, Taddei employs a sophisticated command of trompe-l’œil and distorted perspective to tease and captivate. This distinctive approach has earned him a place in the permanent collection of the Leslie-Lohman Museum, a testament to his significance within queer art discourse and beyond.

A prolific exhibitor, Taddei’s work has been shown at prestigious galleries across the United States for over thirty years, from solo shows at Steem Gallery in New York (1998) to major exhibitions in Provincetown during the 1990s. His early career was marked by influential mentorships and collaborations, notably with Edward Melcarth, who introduced him to the art of murals and trompe-l’œil in 1968 while working on a commission at the Hotel Pierre. Encounters with luminaries like Peggy Guggenheim, Robert Hughes, and Jacqueline Onassis further shaped his trajectory, while friendships with artists like Keith Haring and collectors like Malcolm Forbes amplified his presence in the art world.

Taddei’s versatility extends beyond the canvas. His decorative painting career, launched in the 1980s, includes iconic murals for Tavern on the Green, the Metropolitan Museum’s Party of the Year, and the Victoria & Albert Museum’s Annual Gala. His designs for Tiffany & Co.—ranging from china to scarves—demonstrate a seamless fusion of fine and applied arts. Notable commissions, such as the decoration of Lord Jermyn’s New York townhouse and a penthouse for Freddie Gershon, underscore his ability to transform spaces with his signature illusionistic flair.

Recent press, including features in Time Out NY and The Gay & Lesbian Review by Taylor Lewandowski, has celebrated Taddei’s enduring relevance. A forthcoming book by Reed Massengill promises to illuminate the depth of his life and contributions. Exclusively represented by Greg Salvatori Gallery, Taddei’s new and archival works remain available, offering collectors a chance to engage with his singular vision.

Margus Teska is an Estonian multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans sculpture, ceramics, costume- and graphic design. Working across these disciplines, he explores the relationship between material, form, and visual storytelling, combining technical craftsmanship with an imaginative, concept-driven approach.

Teska’s work is characterized by a strong sense of spatial thinking and an interest in constructing characters, objects, and immersive environments. His background in graphic design informs his attention to composition, detail, and visual communication, while his sculptural practice expands these principles into three-dimensional form. Through the interplay of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design, he creates works that blur the boundaries between art, design, and fiction.

Drawing inspiration from nature, fantasy, science fiction, and popular culture, Teska investigates themes of identity, transformation, and materiality. His practice is driven by a fascination with world-building, inviting viewers to engage with works that evoke curiosity, encourage interpretation, and create a dialogue between imagination and reality.

Hi. My name is Alex Wings. Artist, based in New York.

Graduated from the Academy of Arts in Europe. I always loved drawing and have a big interest of art, design in all forms.

I have always been fascinated by the human body and that is still my focus.

It is the skin and figure that is important to me, not where it is.

I am also always interested in the harmony of nature with different shades of the palette.

I use colours to make the impression I want. I usually do not have a plan in the beginning, and like to play with colours over and over.

I can have an idea about the feeling I want and if it should be a light or dark picture, but that idea can often change!

I also use/mix traditional oil and acrylic.

My inspirations: Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Gustav Klimt.

Through schooling and work, I gained footholds in fine art, education, mathematics, and big tech. Fantasy novels got me to love reading, I used to record very noisy music, and I currently write software for a living. My mom taught me to bake, so I typically bring dessert to the dinner party. I have two dogs and a husband, and the four of us watch movies a lot, together, in Queens. It could be horror or comedy or horror-comedy or sci-fi or documentary or Oscar bait or French arthouse.

So in general I try to avoid policing the boundaries between things. Categories make quick explanations, but it’s not how I want to live. I’m creatively promiscuous: I have made quilts, mechanical things, sound installations, videos, and performances. Working in clay at this point in my life is the first time I have relaxed into the particular rhythms of a material, rather than immediately strained against them.

But I am by nature contrarian, so with slabcorp you can expect me to confuse conventions of form, function, and decoration. Some vases are also necklaces, some bowls have holes, some accidents are attributes. Sometimes I figure out how to make things and other times I make things to figure stuff out. Either way, I’m here to enjoy the process. I hope you enjoy the results.
