Mel Kadel

Jim Houser
In 2009 Philly artist Jim Houser moved out of and back into his house, built a new kitchen, got married, had hip surgery, got his wife pregnant, and did three shows. No wonder his latest crop of paintings, sculptures, and installations don't show the same frenetic pace - instead, they're the near opposite: purposeful, considered, and peaceful. Take a look...
