Carol Es at her opening “SHE DREAMED SHE REMEMBERED” in Culver City

We went to ton of art shows and openings all over town. Best, most crowded opening was for Carol Es in Culver City - great painting of finding the perfection of our neurotic self in an imperfect world. The work is fun and serious, well painted and composed but not so mature that you brood. Plus she is one of the few artists who’s art has sold in the galleries this past few weeks, what with the stock market crash pretty much decimiating the L.A. art world - they talk about it openly… Every gallery owner knows his burn rate - how much money will he flush away on rent without sales until he or she is forced to close. It was a day with very few red dots.
