Move #19, last day to check out the show is this WEDNESDAY.

This hump day (aka tomorrow) will be the last day to come explore Move #19.  With over 20 artists, this is a show that tickles the brain.  Rich Jacobs has a knack for mixing things up and for the 19th time he's hit the nail on the head. So you've been warned. Tomorrow is the last day to check out MOVE #19.

Tell your friends.

Eric White

Brooklyn, NY is the current stomping grounds for Eric White.  Born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, he received his BFA studying illustration at Rhode Island School of Design.  Eric then moved to California where he spent the following decade before moving to his current location.  His art explores the metaphysical and those things that exist far beyond our perception.  However, Eric never seriously considered his paintings or drawings until the end of high school.

Galleries across the United States have featured Eric White’s work and he has also been shown in galleries in Tokyo, Paris, Toronto, Belgium, and Brussels
