and &#8220;Girl on Campus&#8221; were selected by juror Michael Lash, former director of the public art program for the City of Chicago.\u00a0 As I had stated a few posts ago, this is the first issue of Studio Visit, a new magazine produced by The Open Studios Press of New American Paintings fame.\u00a0 This time the competition was held across the country, not by region, and the work could be 2-D or 3-D, as opposed to &#8216;NAP&#8217;s&#8217; 2-D-work-only policy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I have yet to venture out to the bookstore, but Studio Visit should be on the magazine racks by now.\u00a0 There are two volumes since they decided not to make one super-huge issue.\u00a0 I think splitting it in two is good for those with a short attention span anyway.\u00a0 I am featured in Volume I (see photos above).\u00a0 What&#8217;s nice is they are in a large paperback format, so it&#8217;s not so much a magazine as a good quality paperback.\u00a0 Overall I was impressed with the work featured.\u00a0 Of course there were a few I had to scratch my head over, but that&#8217;s to be expected.\u00a0 In general, I think this is a great start for a new publication.\u00a0 And might I also add that this is being sent out to their prestigious list of galleries, museums, and collectors.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/artistcommentary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/studiovisitspread.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-33\" title=\"My work inside Studio Visit Magazine\" src=\"https:\/\/artistcommentary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/studiovisitspread-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"My paintings \\&quot;Out For a Run\\&quot;
