September Sightseeing
September is my month for preparing to both close out 2008 and plan for 2009. No receptions this month, but you can bet I’ll be out supporting other artists and shows going on this month.
Already on the schedule for the rest of ’08 is consulting for THE IMAGINE BUS fundraiser (October), jurying the ‘Great Expectations’ exhibit for SAN FRANCISCO WOMEN ARTISTS GALLERY (October), installing the PEACE HEROES – THOSE WHO HELPED THE JEWS exhibit (October at the Hillel House, Stanford) and ART FOR ALL SEASONS (December at SomArts), my toy drive event and showcase of artists I am excited to share with you! And, of course, artist’s receptions in October…
Art lives on!

ONGOING SHOWS (5) - SEPTEMBER 2008

FROM THE WATER: Paintings from the Fish to Land series -
paintings by David Rose
This body of work has led itself from stripe studies to a
more retrospective abstraction, which merges geometry and
free flowing marks. His concern and direction has always
moved towards the lines and forms of Diebenkorn and Klee
but beneath that, there is always the search for an elusive
deep seated spiritual root.

AGGRESSIVE IDIOCY IN FIGURATIVE ABSTRACTION - paintings by Anna Seven
