February Group Show at the Hive!

This painting 'the metamorphosis' has traveled up to Los Angeles to be in a group show at the Hive Gallery in Los Angeles. The inspiration for this piece was Franz Kafka and the place he lived. It is amazing to me he actually wanted his work to be burned.

The piece is 8" x 7 3/4" • $130 and was created on a small canvas mounted to wood painted on the edges.

Saturday February 6th is the opening reception from 8 pm - 12:30 am.

Train ride to Glendale

On Thursday I took my first train ride to Glendale CA. I traveled there to visit with the artist sisters CJ Metzger and Miss Mindy and to finish my part in the collaborative painting we are working on. Their studio was built by their Grandfather and is an amazing space! I feel so privileged to have been able to work with them. They are lovely, talented women! The painting is the one all the artists started to work on at the 'Trappings' show in January which will be auctioned off for the charity Lunch Bunch. My part of the painting was inspired by the migration of the monarch butterfly. These are my photos from the trip.

'Entangled Secrets'

This is a sneak peek of one of my pieces for the 'Trappings' show this friday. A few months ago Shonn brought home a deceased hummingbird he had found on the sidewalk. To see all the beautifully colored feathers shimmering in the sun was breathtaking. It was such a sad but beautiful sight. I sat outside trying to capture the colors in a pastel. This piece is a homage to the hummingbird.

This Friday 'Trappings' curated by the artist sisters

This friday January 15th is the opening reception for the 'Trappings' show at the WWA Gallery in Culver City, CA. It will be from 7-10 pm and the artists involved in the show will be doing a live painting that will be donated to the Lunch Bunch charity who feed the homeless of Los Angeles. This is a group exhibition curated by the artist sisters CJ Metzger and Miss Mindy. I will have 4 new paintings in this show.
