Arts Benicia Mosaic Project
Hey All...
Arts Benicia is doing a cool new thing for Open Studios this year. Lots of folks took a 6"x6" tile and did some art on it, then they will all be hung together on a wall in the gallery starting this Thursday, April 14th. Everyone will then have an option to purchase a tile for $20. You just don't know which one you will get. On May 1st, at the close of Open Studios weekend, numbers will be drawn and the buyers will take home their tile. Great way to get a sweet little piece of art at a low cost! Some rather well-known local artists have contributed tiles, too. Come see it on the wall, and maybe buy a square!

Latest piece to be accepted into a gallery show!
Many years ago, I had a great adventure living in Bali for about a year. I helped to start a local losman business and developed a wonderful Balinese family. As part of a series I am developing related to my travels, I drew Ni Wayan, my business partner's grandmother. This piece was just accepted to be shown in the Falkirk Juried Show in San Rafael.
The opening reception is March 25th, 5:30-7:30, but the show runs through May 28th.
Also entered but not accepted was Bayi Wayan, Ni Wayan's great grandson. He grew to be 18 years old, then died recently in a motorcyle accident in Bali. This drawing came from a favorite photo I took just after Bayi Wayan had his head shaved as part of a special ceremony.
Cesar....the latest commission!
Meet Cesar...done for Angela. It is Angela's and her husband's anniversary soon, and she wanted a special gift. She had me draw his beloved dog Cesar...who now lives in doggy heaven. I hope her husband loves it!
