A couple weeks ago, there was another Werewolf art show at this really cool space, the Eco-logical Art Gallery, in Los Angeles, on Pico Boulevard. There were some serious artists this time around, maybe some of the best yet! My personal fave was Jessica Ward, who had these amazingly intricate pencil drawings of these women with long limbs and even longer hair, that she fashioned into mysterious and very surreal creatures. I really wanted to buy one of these pieces, and I'm not an art collector by any means and usually do not purchase original artwork...I guess I'm too busy making my own! But you know I was seriously into these if I wanted to buy one is what I'm sayin!!! I think it would be nice to support the local art community and keep the ball rolling...and I also thought it would be cool to have a piece of art of one of the artists I was in the show with. We also share the same initials ironically. Maybe someday Jessica! So I have been showing my own "psychedlic garden party" series, filled with mixed media drawings, silkscreens and even fabric/wire sculptures...let's see if I can get these photos to upload where I want them to.....
Currently, this fabric sculpture is in the window of "Beauty Is Pain", a rock and roll fashion couture boutique in Hollywood.

Hey Jamia,
Love the photos - how wonderful to be part of a show! I just realized that the "email" I thought I sent you a week ago bounced back, probably because I thought I was sending to an email addy when I wrote you @blogspot. In any case, I wanted to thank you for taking the time to show we around the machines at Hands on 3rd and for being a good teacher. I needed a little intro to direct my inspiration. :) I've been busy with the holidays this last week and my boyfriend's birthday - all lovely things happening at once - but I'm hoping to catch the next Kimono class (learned this week's was canceled). My email is mapetitesonya(at) gmail.com
Be well, Sonya
