Thumbs up?




This Sat. night was Yoskay Yamamoto at Black Market on Sawtelle curated, I believe, by Project Gallery. I relaly like these clouds.



We heart Salvador Dali.



It was pointed out to me that the shape of the characters is reminiscent of thumbs. Interesting.

I Love how there are like a million different kinds of moleskines now and I'm such a sucker for it all I have to get all of them.

Yet another weekend of missing some great art shows. Oh the guilt!

I have been working on several projects including shows I'm doing with Blood is the New Black

some of the pieces:

no show


So after all those plans to go to shows this weekend I got distracted by birthday celebrations. Happy Capriquarius Birthday!


But as one of the parties took place at Cha Cha I managed to sneak a peak at Ghettoglass Gallery across the street: the sweet artwork of Christopher Bettig. I found the work quite feminine and folky.


































I really liked the fact that there was a range of price so that anyone could afford something. Those little blocks were only $10 I would have grabbed one if I wasn't in such a rush.

I also spotted Blood is the New Black Tshirts in the gallery store!!

Hopefully I'll catch some of those other shows next weekend...

can you spot artists?



a belated post about Saturday's show at the Corey Helford Gallery.

There was a lot of bubblegum pink but still some interesting art:

Carlos Ramos' very cool k9s (sorry I can't find a website right now)


Panni Malek pink and girly damsels


Wednesday Kirwan, I also saw her work on my trip to Seattle.I'm really liking her work. Some of it reminds me of Katie Rice.


Korin Faught.
I am just in awe of her work. I can't really talk about it.


And I hung out for a min. with Gary Baseman. There are a lot of cool projects that he's working on so I'll try to keep up. Damn I need to do something with my mop.


Natalia Fabia was also there and Mitra briefly introduced us. She's amazingly beautiful and seems really nice. I really dig her paintings and her jewelry is amazing. Quite the busy artist. I can't keep up.

We also met Greg Escalante from Juxtapoz. Cool. Then a couple days later I listened to his brother Joe on the radio. Kind of random how art invades life.

Ultimately the show was fun and there were enough interesting pieces of art to get me into it.

So for this weekend:

Fri:
Lola at Thinkspace

Sat:
Alyson Fox at Reform School
group show at BLK/MRKT gallery
and maybe this show at Track 16?
