White Plains artist Erwin Ong has created five new pieces of fish art for the 2024Â Hamptons Fine Art Fair.
These works on paper, made with felt-tip markers and rollerball pen on 12" x 18" paper, will be available in person at at Art Gotham's booth (#404) along with works on paper by 19 other artists.
The fair runs July 11-14, 2024, in Southampton, NY. You can redeem a free VIP ticket (code: exv_34744).
Here are the five drawings I made for the show.
"Stack of Fish" - This one had only been a drawing in a pocket-sized sketchbook (watch the video tour) and I enlarged it for this submission.
"12 Fish" (horizontal) - I wanted to include a few drawings from the "School of Fish" series, including a horizontal version of 12 fish.Â
"20 Fish" - I really enjoyed making this and "12 Fish" in this larger, 12"x18" size, and I want to keep exploring making these fish in larger and larger canvases.
"Fish Arrows #2" - This is the first time I've drawn new fish arrows since making the three originals more than a decade ago. I really like the reducing the fish to their most basic shape and details.
"Fish Arrows #3" - I also made a version with more fish.
