Went to the OC Fair tonight to see X and The Plimsouls. Great show but on the way home my friend and I were trying to remember who said you can't go home again?? We felt it tonight. ...

I'm going to be in meeting hell for the next couple of days so I wanted to remind everybody that Three Blind Mice opens at The Office this Saturday night. It would be great to see you all. ...

This Saturday Evita: Up Close and Personal opens at  the Bowers. Normally I would be sure to miss something like this but I am going to Argentina early next year so I might have to take a look. Get a historical perspective kinda thing. (image, Juan Carlos Pallarols, Replica of Death Mask of Eva Peron, 1952.) ...

I was going to try and and give a more detailed description but it's late and I'm tired and I'm not good at it anyway. So all I really have to say is on Saturday I caught the Tim Hawkinson show at LACMA and it's just one of those shows where you walk around and just get lost...

This Saturday after running through LA we made sure to stop at Enview Gallery in Long Beach to catch the opening reception for artist Robert Fontenot. I had known of this space for a little while but this was my first visit and I was quite impressed, both with the space and the work of Robert Fontenot.

So needless to say, drastic action had to be taken and the only way I know how to get out of one of those depressions is to go look at lots of art. So I grabbed the cat, some of the neighborhood kids and Mrs. OC...

They say drawing is a lost art What do you think? ...

Wanted to give everybody a heads-up to mark your calendars for the next opening at The Office. I'm really excited about this next show and I'm sure you will enjoy it also.

Three Blind Mice featuring Walpa D' Mark, Gustavo Herrera & Aragna Ker Opens Saturday July 16th, 6-9pm. Address can be...
