Environments and Installation Art

Recently my husband Jeremy worked for an artist doing some installation work. The project was so intensive that she's put his name in the credit with her work. It didn't make the website- but I think it's great!
The opening is tonight at The Museum of Craft and Folk Art
He installed FLOR carpet tiles in Megan Wilson's Project. Below is one of the interiors that Megan has done in the past. EDIT: Photos of my husband in front of the exhibit.

The Featured Exhibit for this show is by Mike Shine, who creates this pretty cool Environment called the ArtShack. (pictured below)

The show also will have Edgar Arceneaux and Watts House Project, Jacob Sockness, Merritt Wallace, and documentation of famed California environments. Who'd a thought my ass-kickin' husband would ever be involved in Installation art?

When Murder is FUN

Tomorrow I will be seeing The Murder City Devils at the Great American Music Hall. Jeremy is also friends with them. In my opinion, they are exceptional people with good taste. It's a plus that they make some of my favorite music.

I'm hoping while we hang out that I can aquire the box set they've just released. Pure genius. This would make my Valentine's Weekend perfect. wink wink nudge nudge saynomore.

It's a Drag


Yeah, over the past three years I've been wrestling with the fear of messing up on a painting that I know has the potential to be absolutely gorgeous. Today I finished it. It's a portrait of my favorite drag queen Peaches Christ. I was having lunch with my friend Jen who works at Glamarama and she's successfully convinced me to have an art show there. It's a huge salon which also is home to large walls that need to be filled with awesome tacky velvet art. So, I'm going to book the show, and then work my ass off for the next year to produce as many velvet paintings as humanly possible to attempt to fill up this amazing space. Let's see if I can do it!
