“Art is the glue that holds civilization together"
–Dr. Shaun Duke
The weekend was fun AF!
The Warren Court Art Walk was freaking awesome! We had stunning weather, albeit with some wind on Sunday; still, the weekend was a smashing success. Loads of visitors attended and left with beautiful new art treasures. They enjoyed delicious tacos from Jus' Tacos and Inner City Cafe, as well as music by the Peter Scott Trio on Saturday and The Besides on Sunday. Thank you to everyone who came out and joined the fun! Below see some of the fabulous artists. Click here to see all of the participating artists.
Up on my front porch, the pARTy was rocking. I served up my usual margaritas and presented a litany of new cherry paintings. So many friends, old and new, turned up to celebrate the creative community in our two towns, South Orange and Maplewood. The staggering amount of art on display was received with excitement and appreciation as visitor after visitor left with a meaningful piece of eye candy.

As you can see from all my happy customers above, I was busy packing up paintings of cherries, cocktails, oysters, and lots of prints to make their way safely to their new homes. It's heartwarming and thrilling for me to know that my work is now lining the walls of so many of the wonderful people I had the pleasure of connecting with over the weekend. I can see the joy spreading with each piece of art as I create a connected web of visual delight, inspiring these lovely souls to embrace their beautiful lives, pits, and all.
Here is the next event I’d love to share with you:
Saturday, August 9, 7:30pm South Orange, NJ
JILLISH FAIR—LOVING JILL SOBULE
An evening inspired and devoted to the late-great singer songwriter, Jill Sobule. Space is limited. To attend RSVP here and you will receive the location and more details.
Join me with special musical guests for a magical evening celebrating and honoring my friend Jill Sobule's life and legacy. Jill was best known for her 1995 hit, "I Kissed a Girl," and her song "Supermodel." She was a brilliant and prolific songwriter, a guitar shredder, a masterful performer, and the most joyful, funny, and delightful person you could ever meet. There has been an outpouring of love for Jill Sobule since her untimely death on May 1st. If you didn't know her, start learning about her with us on August 9th. The evening will benefit Jill’s charity, “It Was A Good Life Foundation,” which will distribute all donations to charitable causes that Jill deeply cared and sang about.
Me with Jill Sobule during the first concert she performed at my house on July 23, 2011.
