House Heads and Blood Sucking Santas


This morning was spent painting tiny houses on top of people's heads. Also put the finishing touches on my Blood Sucking Santa piece for the "He Sees You When You're Sleeping" creepy Santa show coming up at Junc Dec.3rd.
It's been a super busy couple of months for me, so I'm looking forward to relaxing a little after my shows at La Luz and C.A.V.E.
I have some group shows in the works for this upcoming year, there should be a lot of fun ones...stay tuned...

LA LUZ de JESUS 25th Anniversary Masters Exhibition


Hello Friends,
Please join us for the La Luz de Jesus Gallery 25th Anniversary Masters Exhibition, with two opening nights, November 4th & 5th, from 8pm-11pm
This one should not be missed!!

Billy Shire celebrates 25 years with huge group exhibition & book

Opening receptions: November 4 & 5, 8–11 PM

To celebrate 25 years of groundbreaking art shows, Billy Shire presents his biggest event ever: La Luz de Jesus 25, a major retrospective exhibition and companion book. The show, offering work by more than 260 artists who have exhibited at the gallery over the years, is so extensive that Shire has split it into two parts, each with two opening nights. As you can see from the list below, the participating artists are a veritable Who's Who of art world luminaries. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see all these amazing artists together in one show.

The book, La Luz de Jesus 25: The Little Gallery That Could, features images of all the art in the show, a personal anecdote about Shire and the gallery written by each artist, essays by La Luz gallery directors and a foreword by Shire. The book is much more than a simple record of this remarkable exhibition. Together, the images and essays present a history of La Luz de Jesus through the eyes of the artists whose careers are intertwined with Shire and his gallery.

For purchase questions or for more information, please contact gallery director Matt Kennedy at info@laluzdejesus.com.
