Welcome Home, the Black Rock Portrait Project

Oil Paintings of the citizens of Black Rock City, participants of the Burning Man event 2011-?, based on photos taken by the artist.

of ways creative, bizarre and joyful. The experience of Burning Man can be life-changing for many people, and is at the very least, profound and extraordinary. It is almost unimaginable what is created out there in a temporary city of art and lavish experience, literally in the middle of nowhere, in the dust, wind and heat. However what truly creates this event is the people. Burning Man is at its core an event created by incredible people willing to brave the harshest of environments to bring their particular form of creation and expression to the community, to truly let their hair down, recreate themselves and share an experience that can be had no where else on the planet. It is these people that participate in this glorious act of communal creation that inspired me to create "Welcome Home: a Burning Man Portrait Project*." A Burning Man Portrait Project* is an art project including a series of exhibited paintings and an art book, the creation of which will be chronicled by a blog and a short documentary video. This project will be funded by your generous donations. Follow the project from start to finish on the website blog. Thank you for supporting the Arts.

Our Story

Welcome Home: the Black Rock Portrait Project*, now in it's 6th Year. “Welcome Home.” These are the first words you here when you arrive at the gates of Burning Man. It is a Home like no other, transporting it’s eager participants into a world unknown and incomprehensible to outsiders. Participants are released from the bonds of their daily lives. They are free to express themselves in all manner of ways creative, bizarre and joyful. The experience of Burning Man can be life-changing for many people, and is at the very least, profound and extraordinary. It is almost unimaginable what is created out there in a temporary city of art and lavish experience, literally in the middle of nowhere, in the dust, wind and heat. However what truly creates this event is the people. Burning Man is at its core an event created by incredible people willing to brave the harshest of environments to bring their particular form of creation and expression to the community, to truly let their hair down, recreate themselves and share an experience that can be had no where else on the planet.
