What Once was Gloomy is Now Happy

We’re once again hosting the Handmade for the Holidays Art Show and Sale at Visual Philosophy Studios this year. It will coincide with the Second Saturdays on The Alameda, on Saturday, December 9th, 11am-5pm. We’ll have lots of artists with their artwork and handmade items for sale. If you’re looking for a unique gift for someone special, then you’ll want to stop by.

I'm participating in the 2023 HARK! Holiday Art Show and Sale at KALEID Gallery again this year with four affordable 8x8 inch paintings (see above), three of them are new and haven't been shown in public before. The opening of the show will be on Friday, December 1st,...

I recently had the opportunity to think about what community spirit means to me and realized my experience painting a mural at a local park was the perfect example. I’ve submitted this new painting to the City of San José’s Office of Cultural Affairs’ Public Art Program as an example of community spirit and resilience.

I updated the paintings I have hanging at KALEID Gallery in San Jose, California today. This was the fastest update I’ve ever done thanks to amazing help from Fernando. I’d run out of quarters for the parking meter out front, and was putting in every last dime I could dig out of my car, which gave me about 3-4 minutes per each. Pitiful hahaha. Fernando was so much help! Together, we did the whole hanging in less than an hour and I didn’t get a parking ticket. Woot!
