This is comic drag of a very fine order indeed. Check her out here, where She busts out of disguise as Diana Prince, cavorts her wonder stuff around a Vancouver cafe, then runs out onto the street to apprehend a bus and gets into a catfight with a gun-toting evil-doer, all in short order!

The three paintings that will be shown are the first three of a series I'm doing called "Angel No". They deal with a lot of things, but let's just say for now, they're in spectrally manufactured (urban) settings, they are heavily informed by a biblical residue of catastrophe, and they're not without a certain perverse cheer.

Vous Pourriez Détester Ceci #1
The Knife: We Share Our Mother's Health
Psychic TV: Force The Hand Of Chance
Psychic TV: Force The Hand Of Chance
Werner Liebmann
I first ran into his work at Heffel Gallery in Vancouver back in - oh, 1994-ish - and was fascinated. Still am. I'm completely jealous of his marvellously evocative working style and the way it organically builds association on association, and still comes out somehow colourfully all making gorgeous sense. How does he do it?

Wot's New?
a) I've left facebook.
It seemed to be the right time. The site was beginning to feel like a high school reunion - or worse, cafeteria lunch hour - that would never end.
b) In meagre compensation, I've got a simple little point-'n'-click website of my work pretty much ready to go. That should be online within a few weeks.
c) I'll be showing three new works at XeXe Gallery, Toronto, in February this year.
d) New paintings will continue to be sent to Galerie La Petite Mort Gallery.
e) Looks like 2010 is going to be a pretty serious year - in a good way. Plans for exciting new troubles, uncertain (though hopefully evolving) new work and beneficient new ways of living underway.
Cha!
