Vertical Project Space

13 • 13 • 13 • Vertical’s 13-Year Anniversary Show kicks off Friday the 13th featuring 13 artists! Join me at the opening reception from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. at Jackson Junge Gallery (), located at 1389 N. Milwaukee Ave.

See you soon!

Available now! Jerome Tiunayan’s “Better Half,” the first release in Vertical Gallery’s new Vertical Collectors Club print series!

“Better Half,” timed especially for Valentine’s Day gift-giving, continues the comic misadventures of Jerome’s semi-autobiographical signature character and the boy’s canine comrade, a stand-in for the Chicago-based artist’s beloved mini goldendoodle Mochi. The sweet, simple image depicts the boy offering the dog half of his sandwich — a show of sacrifice, commitment and devotion.

“My wife Valerie taught me that feeding somebody, or having somebody feed you, is a gesture that can only be from love,” Jerome () tells us.

“Better Half” is signed and numbered in an edition of just 25 copies, and sized at 16 by 20 inches — perfect for standard frames.

You can learn much more about Jerome, Mochi and “Better Half” in the latest installment of our website-exclusive Vertical Portraits series (link in bio).

We still have a few copies of this print from Sergio Farfan available! Start off the new year with some new art!
