The invites for my latest round of cityscapes are just hitting the streets and I'm hoping you'll join me for the Opening Night reception on February 7th. Send me an email or holler at the Comments and I'll send you reminder a couple of days before. This is my last scheduled show until I'm finished with school, so be ready to party! (And if you'd like to start before 7, I'll be at the back of the Heather from 5 or so on....)

CANVAS Gallery has partnered up the Heart and Stroke Foundation and will be accepting cash donations on the night of the Opening and I have it on good authority that Grolsch will be on hand to share a pint or two.

GASOLINE ROMANCE SHOW INSTALLED

A long day of work followed by an evening at CANVAS Gallery (and a few Guinness at the Heather for sustenance) and I'm happy to report that my artwork is hanging and ready for Gasoline Romance (January 19 - March 11 in Gastown at the Canvas Gallery on Powell Street.)

With Dan's help and the excellent eye (she chose me, didn't she?) of gallery curator, Samantha Anderson, we made quick work of it, although I've got to admit that installing the lightboxes in relation to available outlets is always a pain. (Luckily, ahead of the Woodwards Show I stumbled across some extension cords that run 3 outlets along 10 feet at 3 foot intervals. Lord knows what they make them for, but they work for me!) For those of you who wander in, the paintings are hung along the second level and the lightboxes on the first.

I'll pass along the date of the Opening Reception as soon as it's been confirmed, so stay tuned!

Video from Death Penalty Art Show - Gallery Lombardi

Recently added to youtube, the video embedded below is of Gallery Lombardi's Michelle Latis discussing the Justice For All? Death Penalty Art Show in May 2006. While she doesn't specifically discuss my painting Last Meal:Ruben Cantu, it still gets plenty of camera time.
