Yesterday I ran from art opening to art opening—both shows including my work. Thank God for my car (despite current gasoline prices). I'm in three shows right now, with another one coming up in quick succession. If you'd like to see my work.....
Nature is a show at the Finegood Art Gallery in Woodland Hills. Despite my concerns to the contrary, the show is actually interesting and lovely. Work by Eugene Yelchin, Carol Goldmark, and Josh Abarbanel (and me, of course) were real standouts. The work I showed was from an ongoing series called Nature Morte ("still life," better translated as "dead nature"). The three pieces I showed were very lyrical, spare, and linear, using drawing & painting media and pigment on raw canvas (that one is 32 inches high and 88 inches wide) or mattress ticking (36 inches square or 42 inches square).

Artists Hang Themselves at Mount St. Mary's College's excellent Jose Drudis-Biada Gallery is a big free-for-all blowout fundraiser for the perpetually strapped yet fantastic gallery. Many of us who have shown up at the Mount were happy to have the opportunity to "give back," by showing up to three of our pieces and by paying a fee per piece. I was happy to include three of my large charcoal-on-canvas pieces from a series called "Bite." VERY icky and disturbing mutated gums, jaws, teeth, etc. I am really proud of this series. It really expresses my anger, bitterness, sorrow, and disgust at the behavior of our nation. I also loved Jackie Nach's prints. Yay Jackie! Glad you are back in L.A.!
