California College of the Arts MFA Exhibition Tonight in SF!

I wish I was in San Francisco right now so I could attend the MFA graduate show which is going on right now! I am so proud of my two really great friends, Marci Washington and Michelle Blade. Their work has grown so much in the past two years and just blows me away!! The MFA show will be a great one, all the graduates are really strong and I am so excited to get to be among the grad students in the fall. I am just counting down the days. Also in exciting news, Marci, Michelle, Deth, and 2 other artists and I will be getting a big studio space which is where Little Paper Planes will live! Yay a little art home for the store! Anyhow to view all the grad's work go, cca.edu The top painting is Marci's and the one below hers is Michelle's.

Saskia Leek

Opening on the 10th at Jack Hanley Gallery in SF, is Saskia Leek. I am loving these colors and the simplicity of the pieces. I love how at first glance they appear to be shapes of colors and then looking closer, landscapes appear. I want to see how they look in person, if they have that meaty paint feel or are they thinly painted...that is the problem with the internet, you can never truly get the same feel of a piece as you do when standing right there in front of all its glory.
Anyhoo...for more info go to, www.jackhanley.com.
It is all gloomy today, maybe San Francisco is saying hi to me, haha...ok time to go get happy hour drinks with the ladies.
