g-show is open at TRCC 119th & Lowell, OP--different kind of show this time, over 40 pieces, some feature lighting components, mix of new and old, There are 8 photos, from my recent foray into that area with a SLR Canon. Pieces with poetry from "The Taste of Red Orange" which was just published. And I pursued a folk aesthetic on some pieces (I know, that sounds kind of twee, but I did, and got into (to me) a backtracking into art I admire) So this is a different-looking show. It'll be going through Mid-April. Tomahawk Ridge Community Center.
