Episode Transcript

Speaker 2 00:00:23 Okay. Welcome to the Frame Center podcast. And we've been away for a little bit. We had a little break, um, for December with the Christmas rush here at the Frame Center. We did pop in quickly, did a quick recap of the year, but, uh, excited to welcome the first guest of 2023 <laugh> Barry own Andrew Flight. He, uh, is a former employee at the Frame Center, and he has got a show that, um, is coming up on Thursday. What's the date? Thursday the 19th. Thursday to the 19th. Uh, his show kicks off here at the Frame Center Gallery on the second floor. Um, excited to talk to Andy about his show. I know Elizabeth has a lot of questions for him. <laugh>, don't you, Elizabeth? Oh, yeah. They're lined up. They're lined up. All right. We're going to ask a few of 'em on camera. You can ask some others, you know, uh, once we stop recording the other ones. Speaker 2 00:01:18 Um, so here we go. So Andy used to, you worked here. How long has it been, uh, you? 20 years ago. I was hired actually 20 years ago. Yep. Yeah, you look a little nervous. And I worked here. I'm not too nervous. I'm used to the camera <laugh>. All right. Uh, I worked here for seven years, I think. Maybe seven years. Eight years. Yep. And you were painting then you, you were into UMass Dartmouth. You were I graduated UMass Dartmouth in 2000 with a painting degree. And, uh, I did a summer in France at Pontoon school. Art. Nice. Yeah. And you've, you know, been painting pretty steadily ever since, or? I took some pretty big gaps, but I try to at least do something, even if it's not something that's gonna be shown. Yeah. I, I at least do some, uh, stuff at home. Have a pretty good studio set up at home, so, yeah. Speaker 2 00:02:00 You stead stayed pretty active. Yeah. Yeah. I'm either, if I'm not painting, I'm drawing. Um, I've only had the profile five or six big shows. Yeah. The profile was a big one. <laugh>. Yeah. That's one that you've always said, you know, you mastered. That's right. But, uh, this'll, this has been a while, so this is my first one in a few years. Nice. Well, I'm excited about it. I think all the work looks great. I think Dina did a great job getting everything hung up on the, uh, yeah. I'm very happy with how it came up. Yeah. Um, kind of like a little bit of a variety of, uh, of works. I know that you had the, uh, we're looking over at the, the sneakers and the Coke bottle. Yep. Yeah. I usually paint. Yeah. I usually paint still lives, paint from life. Yeah. Um, landscapes here and there. Speaker 2 00:02:43 Yeah. And then, uh, sometimes I do some stuff that's not in the realism field, like the, the blue figures over there. The, the figures take a break from the other stuff. Yeah. What are the figures are, are you using like, one of those, like marionette things to like, nah, I just, it's, uh, no, it's, it's mostly, that's mostly from, just from memory. I mean, I took a ton of drawing classes, so Yeah. You know, and then I just kind of start with the, the paint down there and then see where it goes. Yeah. And then you have the couple of, uh, kinda like abstract landscapes that we were talking about the other day. Yeah. Kind of in the, uh, yeah. The always feels like they're in the style of, uh, former customer. He's definitely an inspiration on 'em. Yeah. Yeah. Those, um, those are really, are more for the color, I think. Speaker 2 00:03:25 Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, you know, you get the, the, um, I think it's, Dina wrote it on the artist description about the vibrant colors. Yeah. So I tend not to share shy away from those. So if you can't see 'em in real life, then I kind of create something to put 'em on there. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. Well, Elizabeth's been looking through the show. She's been, been enjoying the works. She's saw, we actually took a picture, uh, early today, the one I have at the, at the house from your last show. Yep. Um, is it the boots? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. The wi you know, the whiskey. What was that? Was that booze and shoes? Something like that? Yeah, that was from, I wanna say that was 13 years ago. Cause that was in the original calendar that I had from the show in Pembroke. Yeah. So that one was a while ago. Speaker 2 00:04:02 Yeah, that one, uh, yeah, I've had that one hanging. I had that hanging in my old house. I have it hanging at prominent spot in my, uh, my current home. Yep. Yep. Same frame as this, as the, uh, show here for most of the paintings too. Yeah. Discontinued <laugh>. Now we can find a symbol. Sorry. Yeah, sure. We'll find something. But yeah, I, I, I, you know, picked up the, uh, the lighthouse. What, which one was that? What was that called? Uh, that's Camden Light. I went to, uh, Camden last February for five days with my wife. Yeah. And we stayed right next to the light, and I got some really good snapshots, did some sketches. So, yeah, I think it's up in Maine. I think it's a really popular spot, kind of like Power Point down here. Okay. People might recognize it. They Dakota me. Speaker 2 00:04:42 Yeah. I don't, and I don't really get to name, but you know what, it had, like, I was talking to Mike earlier about it, we were, before we did the install, we were, uh, you know, kind of killing a couple minutes up here. It kind of, it has like a hopper type of feel too. Yeah. I get that a lot. You, you do. Yeah. Yeah. It, I think it's, I think it's just the, um, just like simplicity. Yeah. I would never try to say like, obviously his stuff's a million times <laugh> better than mine, but as far as like the composition, it's pretty similar. Yeah. You know, he's pretty simple, pretty straightforward. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. Um, obviously he used oils, so you can get, I think, even better color with oils. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, I use acrylic, which nowadays I think most people do. Yeah. Um, it's just easier. I was never trained in oils. Speaker 2 00:05:23 We, they didn't offer classes at my college. Mm. Just because of the, um, the fire hazard. Um, I would like to have done it. Maybe someday I'll pick it up, but cuz you can get some nice, nice, nice, I think nicer, brighter colors, probably from oil, but, uh, I think the acrylic's pretty close. Yeah. Now is you get, like in, is he an inspiration for Yeah. Yeah. He's probably, he's definitely one of my favorites. Uh, Charles Sheila Edward Hopper. Yeah. Um, you know, the, the light I think is the, is the big thing. If that's the first thing I try to find if I'm gonna paint something, is it has to have a big contrast between light and dark. Otherwise it's just gonna look flat, I think. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. So I think on most, on any painting that I'm doing that's a landscape or a still life, there'll be a drastic change from the shadows to the light. Speaker 2 00:06:04 Yeah. Um, with the other stuff, like the figures, you'll notice that it's more flat cause it doesn't have that mm-hmm. <affirmative>. So that's, that's kind of, and that's what I was, how I was trained, especially when I went to, uh, France. Yeah. Yeah. There's lot of sha I'm looking at the, the shoes, the shadows. This seems like there's like a, you know, distinct line. Yeah. And I take some, some liberties. Right. Add, you know, kind of, um, darken it up where it might not be as dark and definitely lighten it up where it might not be as light. Yeah. So even though it's from an image or something I'm looking at, I definitely, uh, you know, add a lot to it. Yeah. You had a pretty good run here. Like what, what, how long were you at the Frame Center? Yeah. Yeah. It's been a long time. Speaker 2 00:06:44 Seven, eight years. I start, I was, I was bartending in Boston right after school. Yeah. And I didn't think I, ID, I wasn't gonna do that forever. We had a good mutual friend give a shout out to Justin, Nathan Muci. Yeah. And, um, he, uh, inspiration of the profile. Absolutely. <laugh>. And he told me to your friend for life, told me to come here and apply. I passed the test Yeah. That the old man gave me. Yeah. And, um, yeah. And I said I worked there, I loved it. And, um, it was probably one of the best times I've had actually in like, in here working. Yeah. You know, laid back, but everything got done. Yeah. It was definitely a fun time. Yeah. We're trying to keep the, uh, keep that atmosphere going. Keeping it loose with the podcast. Yeah. Well, I mean, we are changing with the times. You know, we, you know, we have a, you know, a dedicated social media team. You know, we, uh, you know, she's very talkative. Yeah. Oh yeah. <laugh>. Speaker 2 00:07:35 We, we have a, a dedicated team. You know, we're trying to keep up with all the social media, but we're still trying to have enough, you know, trying to keep it a light environment and fun and professional, you know. Yep. You know, I mean, there was probably moments in, you know, back in when you were here before where things were a little less than professional. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. We were younger. You've done some growing up. Yeah, absolutely. You were pretty young when you took over <laugh>. I took over the shop, so, but, um, I learned a lot though. Yeah. You know, I learned a ton about how framing can, can make or break a piece. Yeah. Do you feel like the, uh, the times behind the bar that, is that a inspiration for the, the Yeah, especially the, I mean, on my earlier shows, a hundred percent. Speaker 2 00:08:15 I used to do a ton of just glassware and Yeah. You know, booze inspired paintings just because it, it was just around. And I think it, people like love to hang that stuff on their walls too. So Yeah. I'm getting a little more towards, um, landscapes and maybe some, um, I don't know, more everyday things. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, you know, with the shoes or the, with the, uh, Italian dinner Yeah. Stuff like that. So, and, but I'll always have glassware and wine and stuff like that in my paintings. Yeah. So even though you put down the ball, even though Yeah. Even though I put down the bottle <laugh>. Well, yeah. I mean, I, I still can see, you can still see the, you know, like the interest in the glassware. I mean, I, I haven't had a drink a while and, you know, I'm still, you know, I still have Yeah. Speaker 2 00:08:57 Look nice paintings and, you know. Yeah. It has a good, you know, aesthetic to it, you know? Yeah. And glassware was, it's, it's tough. It's a tough thing to paint. So, very early on in college, I had a professor that steered me towards it. Fabric and glassware were the two things that Yeah. She told me, you know, if you can get those down and you can always have a good painting. So I always tried to have some of those in there. What do you think Elizabeth? Elizabeth told me she was admiring some of the paintings earlier, earlier today. She's thinking about, she's still lot the fence. She's trying getting ready to make her first purchase. Oh, Speaker 3 00:09:28 Nice. I've never bought a piece of real art Speaker 2 00:09:30 Before. You should buy the bridge. The bridge. Speaker 3 00:09:35 I like the, I don't know what it's called, the sunset one over there between the Speaker 2 00:09:39 Egg and Yeah. The, um, the powder point dusky. I have quite a few powder point inspired things around, Speaker 3 00:09:46 But Dave will tell you one of my favorite ones, that his house was your boots before I knew who you were or anything like that. I remember we were recording, uh, thing about art on people's walls and like the story behind it. And like, he told me a little bit about you and like the, uh, I think he helped you with the show or something. You gave him that and I really liked Speaker 2 00:10:04 The piece. Yes. And then his brother John actually took the sister piece for it. Yeah. Was the martini glass. What was with that? What was the martini glass and olives and a little white napkin. Yeah. But what, no, there's a shoe in it too. Is there, is there like a, a different one? That was, um, my Uncle John actually bought that one. That was a, um, it was a red high heel with a champagne flute. Okay. Yeah. I had those. I feel like the one that John has had a has a like a shoe in it too though. I don't think so. You don't think so? No. I think it's a napkin. It's like a folded napkin, olive glass night shaker. We'll have to call him in the podcast. We'll have to call him when, when he visits the podcast. We'll, uh, we'll have to clear that up for him. Yeah. Um, cool. Well, I, uh, you know, I've always had a, you know, admired your work and I'm excited, uh, to, you know, take a walk through, take a look at some of the, uh, the pieces may maybe get a closer look. You can kind, we can go through a few things. We're going to change the, uh, the recording equipment and, you know, we'll go from there. All right. Sounds good. All right. Speaker 4 00:11:04 The rest of the interview will be a discussion of Andrew Flights pieces currently on display at the Frame Center Gallery. If you'd like to see these pieces, please stop in at the Frame Center in Hanover before February 24th. A video will be on our YouTube and Instagram pages in the near future if you can't make it in. And now back to our show. Speaker 5 00:11:25 That reminds me of the, like, the piece that I have, but like, maybe you've made the switch to like a non-alcoholic bo uh, Drake. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Well, it's got the same, it definitely has the same col, the same tones the same, yeah. The Browns and Blues. You got the baseball kind it tucked in the corner. Yep. Yeah. You see the, you've checked out the description yet? Yeah. Dropped a cassette. I did actually. I dropped a des cast Leon in there. That's right. An old, an old customer of yours. Uh, you know, from your time. That was actually the first one I did when I just started. Oh, what of all the paintings? Yeah. I just kind of started tinkering around and did that one first. Yeah. Was that, did you really set that up or was that, are you doing that for kind of Not really. Speaker 5 00:12:04 I, I didn't, I actually didn't have a baseball. I just had a sphere, you know, so yeah. I added the stitches and stuff like that. Yeah. And then the guys over here were, whenever I was doing something that I got frustrated with on mm-hmm. <affirmative> on a painting from life, then I would just kind of mess around mm-hmm. <affirmative> and, uh, then they kind of, they kind of just took on, took off on their own. Yeah. They have that like, so like, what are you, are you doing that with tape? Yeah, I tape it off. Uh, well, these two, the one one in the middle of it, and then I used the p uh, p I just used the pallet knife on this one Yep. To get that effect. So the, and then, um, sponges a lot on this. So to get the edges, I removed the paint rather than adding it, if you know what I mean. Speaker 5 00:12:43 Yep. Yeah. Well, the, the line, you know, like, I don't know if it's the placement of the lines that kind of has that like a similar feel to the ones that that that Bobby c uh, yeah. Inspired abstracts. Yep. And yeah. And like I was, I kind of felt like that had like that, uh, what is the thing called? The wooden, the wooden guy that was, I don't even know. Just a figure drawing. Like, it's like a tool. Yeah. Yeah. Like they have that, like, that feel to, you know, to me, I don't know. Yeah. Once you, I think once you take figure drawing, it just kind of stays in your head. Yes. You know, what the, what the form looks like. Yeah. I mean, the same thing, like the, we got that it's got those same lines. So tell me about this guy right here. Speaker 5 00:13:22 We got, um, so what do we got? What do we got going on here? I think on that show, I did it the Pembroke Library a few years ago I started tinkering with painting a piece onto another piece. Yeah. To give it a little bit of, um, just a different feel, just layers. Yeah. And just give it a little depth mm-hmm. <affirmative>. And, um, this one just, I just started with the colors and then I thought it looked kind of like an autumn feel. So I just added the, you know, the kind of a leaf changing color and then the pair. Yeah. Just give it like a seasonal kind of feel. Yeah. And then you were saying that the, the piece right here was d like the one that Dina kind of talked about Dana really like, yeah. I wasn't sure if I wanted to put it in. Speaker 5 00:14:00 I didn't think it was my strongest piece, but it's, it's, um, it's one of those pieces where I kept glazing and glazing and glazing. So it's really built up. It has, you know, some spots. Yeah. You can see the texture in it. Yeah. Some spots probably over an eight of an inch of paint on there. Do you find like that medium, do you feel like having somebody else give a opinion on the pieces helps you like Yeah, absolutely. Where you don't, I mean, like, now that you're seeing it in the group, you, you, like, you feel more confident in it than you did. Yeah, I think so. I think that always happens though. It was always a bunch that I, I'm not really happy with and someone else likes 'em. So it, it kind of changes your opinion of it. Yeah, I think so. Yeah. Speaker 5 00:14:35 This one's actually my favorite of my own. Really? Yeah. The one in the middle here, did you set that up too or is that Yeah, kind of. I just had, I was just painting one day down in my basement in my studio and I looked over and I had one of my, a couple of my rags that was sitting on a chair. Yeah. So was the back of chair. And so like that. And I had one of my painting jars and a couple dirty brushes in it mm-hmm. <affirmative> and, uh, it just kind of looked like a good little still life. Yep. So I just started painting it. We going on. And then we got, we have, uh, Elizabeth's favorite right here. Yeah. That's another powder 0.1 that's, um, I spent a lot of time at Ducksberry Beach, so, and I, I've painted that lighthouse. I don't even know. Speaker 5 00:15:13 Probably 6, 7, 8 times two 50. It's a steal. It's a steal <laugh>, you know, she's gonna have to act quick. She's got the inside track, so like, you know, she, she can jump on before the, uh, you know, before the crowd shows up on Thursday night. Cause something tells me that one will go. Yeah. I hope so. Yeah. Same with Dean as, I mean, you have everything priced to sell for sure, Andy. Yeah. Especially, I mean, on the smaller ones, I think. Yep. Like the egg. No, I think this is a, this is a nice, a strong wall I think right here. Yeah. And you guys decided to go with the gold frames just to give it some pop when you Yes. When you got up the stairs. Yeah. So anything would that, would those kind of, um, blues and greens. Yeah. You know, that summer you feel. Speaker 5 00:15:55 Yeah. Um, I think that the, the yellow in the, in there really pops when you get the gold on there. Well it's a nice, like with the black back on the gold frames. Yeah. Like it has a nice tie and it ties into the, the rest of the pieces in the show. Especially like even being able to like use the black floater against that. Yep. It doesn't look out of place. Right. Yeah. So, and then together they look, they look nice too. I feel like I've seen you paint bridges before too. Like this, I painted the PowerPoint bridge a few times. Is it the same spot or are you using different areas? So it's actually de it depends on the tide really. So this one, this one was coming in, it was almost high, whereas the last show I did it at Low Tide. Yep. Speaker 5 00:16:33 Um, so that's really the biggest difference. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, I try to get it on a pretty bright day cuz you know, I like those bright colors, but Yep. Someday maybe I'll paint it at sunset or something like that. Yep. And you like the way like just like all the different lines and beams in the bridges. Yeah. Yeah. I like that kind of engineering feel to it or the, yeah. Yeah. I think that's probably inspired by my dad a little bit. Yeah. Cause he always did that engineer drawing and civil engineering stuff like that. So you, you think like seeing them as a Yeah, it could be. Yeah. I mean that's interesting too. I didn't like, cuz then you have like the same thing like with the Yeah. The figures. You get those strong lines. Yep. Yeah. I think it's a nice, a nice aspect of paintings that you can have, especially like on a figure where it's, you know, some parts are just so cut and clean and then you can kind of just tinker around in the other areas and Yep. Speaker 5 00:17:22 And then, uh, herring run pepper oak. I've actually cleaned that a few times too. That's just a, you know, a little color study that I did there. Yep. I kind of took a lot of liberty with the, with the tones on it. Yeah. More of a composition, you know, I just wanted that red to kind of pop on there and yeah. That is a nice feel. I'm not a big herring run guy, you know, <laugh>. No. And, um, this is, uh, I love to cook, so that's kind of my Yep. Homage to cooking there. Yeah. And, um, cooking, bartending. Yep. You worked, but you were behind the line once, right? Yeah, I used to help out in the kitchen. I used to love it. Yeah. Love to cook cooking. And I would put cook cooking actually above painting for one of my favorite stuff to do in the, uh, in these ones. Speaker 5 00:17:58 Are you, I mean, obviously I'm guessing since you, you're no longer drinking that these are not like really set up or these like, you're not painting kind. So I, we have, you know, wine glasses around the house. I mean these, I, I didn't, this is kind of, uh, like a conglomeration of stuff from my head and then Yep. Really it was the composition of the color is, is I think what, what's gonna make it, make it work. So, um, but I like the reflective services on the, on the glassware and the bottle, so I Yeah. Yeah. The, I imagine the shadows must be tough to do, but you're like, the shadows are strong in there and then like Speaker 6 00:18:35 It was at that moment the camera died. We now return you to your normally scheduled program already in progress. Speaker 5 00:18:51 Uh, so I live in Weymouth. I live right next to Palm Meadow Park. Yeah. So, um, I walk down there all the time, run down there, so I'm just so used to the area. So I kinda took some snapshots on my phone and then came up with that painting in the, in the winter too. Huh? In the winter. Yep. Yep. And then this is actually from, uh, the Herring run as well. It's the field behind it though, in Pembroke. That one feels a little different than, than the others. So that this is painted on a panel. Yeah. It's the only one in the show. I, I used to paint a lot on wood, but it really does a number on brushes. Yep. So I, I just went back to Canvas all the time. Yep. So you think it, and it's, um, it's kind of, uh, it was a very, it was a quick painting, so the, the paint I think's a little thinner on it. Speaker 5 00:19:31 Yep. Yeah. It just feels like, I don't know, it feels flatter than ever than, yeah. I think that was more of going after color on that one. You know, I like that yellow and these guys are definitely a little different than the others. Yep. Um, you know, more of a composition, composition in color. I really didn't know what I was gonna put in the middle. I just decided on the bird. Cause I like the shape of it. I mean, it's funny you Yeah, yeah. I remember there was a bunch of references to you as being a bird. Like it kinda always wish that bird that dips into the, uh, thing that goes like that. Yeah. Yeah. A little bit. Is there like a do what? I don't think it was a doto <laugh>, but yeah. This is also for, I'm dedicating these to Andy Mack because he's a, he's a bird. Speaker 5 00:20:13 He's an actual bird watcher. Bird watcher. Yep. So interesting. Figured he would like those. What is the, why does this one have two? Oh, is that for the set? Yep. Giving a little, you're offering a little bit of a break. Yeah, they were intended, they're intended to hang together. I, they'd probably be fine on their own, but I think they would they look, you know, just the way that, that it, yeah. See the engines kind of frames the whole thing together, so. Yeah. Well I think that they could still like, you know, in Yeah. It built up a lot of, lot of texture on em. Yeah. I think you either gotta go all three or, or just one. Cuz like the Yeah. Especially the one in the middle looks like it would be a little bit out of place. Yeah. It a little bit like a flag too. <laugh>. Speaker 5 00:20:48 Yeah. Bird flag. And then, um, this is, yeah, that's the, that's the one that is Brianna. As soon as I saw that one, I just like, that's all that jumped right into my mind. He painted the beach a lot and then he did the lines, so. Yeah. Well, I mean, I like he had that, like, I, I remember some of the paintings just like with those strong, strong lines, so like the, the transfers, the colors, like, I'm trying to remember what he called some of those pieces. I don't remember. But his, his stuff was really, really good. Yeah. I'm gonna jump online at some point and try to like, try to look some of 'em up and try to see if we can't put one next to that, you know? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. His colors were definitely more muted. Yeah. Like all those abstract ones had some really bright colors, but his beach were definitely a little more muted. Speaker 5 00:21:33 Did you, now, when you were painting that, did, would that pop into your head at all or no? It did afterwards. Afterwards, yeah. It didn't really as I was doing it, but yeah. At some point I definitely noticed it. Yeah. Look. Yeah. No, cause I, I, when you brought 'em in, that was like the first thing I said to you. I'm like, I just see like a bobby sip, Bobby Cipriani, uh, painting in there and, uh, yeah. Interesting. I do you feel like it, you know, you found any other inspiration? Like, you know, like we were talking about like copper and besides painting and like, you know, as far as you, the local year people that came in. Um, I don't know. I would, if I would say inspiration, I definitely would look at things and, you know, notice something that reminded me of my style, you know? Speaker 5 00:22:11 Yep. Maybe, I guess you could call it inspiration if it made me wanna go home and paint. So Yeah. You know, that would happen from time to time. Belief's. Nice. Yeah. It's a simple study. There's the same thing. Yeah. Yeah. And then this one's definitely a little different than what I usually do. Yep. That seems like it's like along the same lines as the pair. Yeah, definitely. Yeah. I was originally gonna do a similar to the birds a triptic mm-hmm. <affirmative>, but the colors were just so different between with the pear and the tree that I decided just to do separately. Yep. Yeah. I love the texture in this too. Yeah. That same thing, just pallet knife. Yep. Just build it up with pallet knife and some, you know, matte medium. It almost feels like it has like a, the layers almost gives a, like a leaf like quality too in, in like some of those things, which it's kind of nice. Speaker 5 00:22:54 Yeah. With the trees. Yeah. And you can find some shapes in there that are supposed to have a little bit of an autumn, you know, feel to it leaves and stuff like that. Yeah, no, I, I, I definitely can, especially like this one section I ha feel like I, I get that feel over there too. That's cool. And then, um, obviously these are the most hopper alike, especially that I think. Yeah, yeah. Those, I mean, I was sitting, I think that that's might be what, you know, what tree is that one? Yeah.
