Two of Twilight’s favorite urban contemporary artists, John Osgood and CASH (aka Curtis Ashby) unite for this two-man collaboration.Osgood’s collection of colorful & odd characters are inspired by life and the uncomfortable, forlorn and many times humorous circumstances that happen within it. Cash’s paintings reflect the textures of the city as well as the colors and spontaneity found in nature. For this show, John & Cash, will bring their individual styles to create artworks which intermingle their unique imagery.

New Spring Inspired Works By Artist Curtis Ashby aka CASH

We are always excited to receive the latest work from our artists and hear what they are up to. Below are a series of new paintings by CASH that were not only inspired by our springlike weather and wishful thinking of warmer weather, but also by the paintings of birds that his uncle created in his bedroom when he was a child. CASH said that when he was a kid he would imagine those painted birds coming to life and flying around his room. Those images sparked the idea for this new bird series.

CASH is an artist that you'll want to keep your eye on. He's always looking for new ways to push his art to a new level and has already at a young age, been successful in getting his work out in multiple venues. He uses the colors he sees around him, from the natural earth tones he sees in nature, to all the colors of the torn up posters and billboard graffiti, broken windows, and peeling paint which all seem to make it into his paintings.

He has a collaborative exhibit at the Auburn City Hall Gallery in May along with John Osgood. For more information on that exhibit go to the City Hall Gallery website.
