Spent the afternoon being interviewed by Mike Maxwell for his Live Free podcast. Had a lot of fun talking about art, the disenfranchised, women in art, and lots of other topics I'm not fully remembering right now.
Mike's podcast can be found here: http://mikemaxwellart.com/lfp and the interview I did with him should be up in a week or so.
a big thanks to Mike for having me on, it was my first time being interviewed for a podcast and I couldn't have asked for a more gracious host. Plus Mike has a killer art collection so I got to enjoy some visual stimuli while verbally stumbling through the interview!

Last Day of GMWaT4 and New Shows on the Horizon
Hello All,
Today is the last day of Gag Me With A Toon 4. A big thank you to Steven Daily and Tomi Monstre for having me in the show. It was a blast.
I have some shows coming up in the near future:
Ltd Gallery
Geek Girl Group Show
May 5th, 2012
Sacred Machine Gallery
Beyond The Sacred
May 11th, 2011
C.A.V.E. Gallery
Venice Art Walk
May 19th, 2012
Also, I will be going to Hawaii at the end of the month for 10 glorious days, so please be patient with me if you order anything from my etsy store in the interim. I will get to the orders as soon as I get back. This means I will be missing the show opening at Ltd, which I guess means they're just going to have me back so I can attend the next opening ;) And hey, it's Hawaii, who would turn that down??
Lately I've been finding myself in situations that may not be second nature to a strange, all black wearing, artsy gal (like camping in the middle of the Valley of Fire, or going beach hopping in Hawaii) but I've been in some wort of weird Gypsy-traveling phase lately and all of the experiences have been a lot of fun. I look forward to more of them.

March Madness
We are coming up on the end of my March Madness. I have been too busy to post, so this will have to make up for the last few weeks in which I've been busy painting, running to the post office, painting some more, going to show openings, getting drunk in creepy David Lynch-esque hotels with awesome people, and then painting some more.
We opened the Petals to the Metal show last Friday the 16th to lots of metal and petals. 
Next up was the Gag Me With a Toon show, curated by Steven J. Daily and Tomi Monstre. The show was PACKED. A big hug and thank you to everyone involved, it was a treat to show with so many amazing artists. 
Show merch is available here: http://www.welovefine.com/nby.php?d=13 and the original art is available here: http://www.wwagallery.com/SearchResults.asp?searching=Y&sort=7&cat=1881&show=200&page=1 grab it while you can!
This weekend we will be opening the Freaks of Nature show at junc Boutique & Gallery. Some of the art has already come in, and it sure is freaky!! This one is sure to delight (or horrify, depending on your proclivity)
Come dressed in your finest Carnivale Side-Show Freak attire and join us for a night of booze and art!

The Passion of Evil-Lyn
Sneak preview of the completed version of one of my pieces for Gag Me With A Toon 4, "The Passion of Evil-Lyn" all finished and ready to be framed and shipped out to GMWAT!
I'll be posting more about that show, along with the unveiling of my Flintstones painting, after this weekend's opening of LALUZAPALOOZA!!
Super excited for all these shows coming up, I plan to be at each of the openings, so I hope you can make it out! La Luz is going to be a blast, as always, and promises to be a packed night full of booze and brilliant art. Next up is the botanical themed art show "Petals To The Metal" at Vishuddha Creatives in South Park, San Diego. If you went to the Pirate show opening here a couple of months ago, you know you're in for a fun night. The flyer for this one rocks (am I allowed to say that if I designed it?? oh well, I'm saying it) and I'll be posting it here shortly. The next night will be the opening of Gag Me With a Toon vol.4, at WWA Gallery in Culver City. So super excited about this one, can't wait to see how all of these amazing artists will reimagine the saturday morning cartoons that are so near and dear to my heart. And finally at the end of the month, rounding out all of the March Madness, is the "Freaks of Nature" show at junc boutique and gallery, curated by yours truly, and featuring our artist roster of usual suspects.

LaLuzAPalooza - Sold Out
A big Thank You to my collectors for making this a Sold Out show for me. I hope I will be seeing lots of you at the show opening this Friday. La Luz always throws some of the best show openings, and I'm sure this one will be no different!
March is going to be a busy month, with shows opening March 2nd, 16th, 17th, and 24th. More info and details on those shows to come!
After that, I will be working on something big for October...more info soon....
La Luz De Jesus Gallery proudly rebrands our annual juried group exhibition, LALUZAPALOOZA. This gigantic, no-theme show features works from some of the freshest and most relevant artists working today. Over 9,000 submissions from commercial illustrators, graphic designers, tattooists, scenics, students, animators and working gallery artists had to be sorted-through, and we've finally narrowed it down to 125 or so artists. The official piece count is awaiting verification, but you can bet that it will be another (tastefully) jam-packed, salon-style exhibition. There are some familiar names from our ever-growing roster of feature artists, but an overwhelming percentage of the work comes from a brand new batch of undiscovered, emerging talent.
Please join us as we continue to support the latest and most original efforts from the nation's alternative art scene.
