Hey beautiful people! I haven't felt super wordy lately--have seen some great shows around town that bear some sort of bloggerly mention--Greg Carrigan and Mary Tapogna at Guardino Gallery (image here of Mary's work), Tabor Porter curated a fabulous Day of the Dead window display there too--go at dusk for the best viewing, and then pop across the street to a great new restaurant Lolo with luscious tapas and wicked cocktails. (I hear the chef used to work at French Laundry in Napa, which I also recommend!) I also saw a ton of great work at First Thursday, including Beth Campbell at PNCA, Kristin Miller (inside) and Susan Klein (window project) at PDX, Bill Will and LeBrie Rich at Nine Gallery, Oliver Boberg at Quality Pictures, and some truly lovely work by Yoshihiro Kitai at Pulliam Deffenbaugh. My art buddy that night was TJ Norris, and he wrote an inspired blog entry about many of those shows, so I'll direct your mouse over to that part of the web.I have been a busy beaver, making lots of things in the studio with the holiday $ea$on fast approaching. I had a request from two places to make ornaments, so I decided to let my hair down and play a little last weekend with some of the materials I've been hoarding for the past few days....years...decades.....you artists probably know how that goes. Anyhow, I'll share some of my very favorites with you.
and then here's the one that I made especially for my pal Fred, who came over to fix my leaky faucet last week. Thanks Fred!
