Packing up our things today - MSue and I will drive North to Pacific Grove tomorrow where my Mom is resting before her great ride on the Mystery Train. Two years ago I was honored to present this painting to a collection of journalists from the UK who were in Santa Monica for Frieze Week. I choked up a bit while describing this painting. My Mom grew up in Newark, New Jersey. Weequahic High grad. Daughter of a Jersey Central Railway engineer.  @jimmybuffs  aficionado. She ventured from the Newark Bay to explore the world with my Dad -  @marines . In this painting, I have gathered a number of her remembrances into an homage to Mom and life itself.

  Thrilled to be in this New exhibition:   Band of Vices announces Dear Artists… BE STILL — the second chapter of its multi-show initiative and a love letter to visual artists and patrons. Rooted in still life, this iteration asks for a different kind of attention: slower, closer, more honest. Dedicated to the legacy of Melvin A. Marshall, a curator who championed artists with care, BE STILL arrives as the gallery’s 50th exhibition, staging a quiet disruption of the current art-market narrative: access over anxiety, presence over spectacle, substance over noise.
