Discovery Tour coming up!


The Arroyo Arts Collective annual Discovery Tour is next weekend! There will be nearly 100 artists (including me) showing work on the Tour, and the price this year is quite reasonable -- $10 in advance, $15 the day of the Tour, or $5 if you bike, take public transportation, or are a senior citizen. I think it is one of the best local art tours around -- really diverse people involved, really interesting houses and neighborhood idiosyncracies to explore. Highland Park is one of the oldest art neighborhoods in LA.

So -- I started working on some new paintings. It feels good to be working with paint again, and I hope to have some new, small pieces to show on the Tour. This year I will be at a new place, the home of Susan and Patrick Gleason, at 516 N. Avenue 53 in Highland Park. It is located in a cluster of Craftsman homes hosting Tour artists, and it should be a lot of fun. Alexis Abrams, who makes wearable art, will be showing in the same location. Tonight is the preview party at Avenue 50/Acorn Galleries. (7 to 10 p.m.) You can buy tickets on the AAC website (see my links section), at the preview party, or just stop by to say hi at the Gleasons' if you don't have time to do the whole Tour.
