Wildflowers Crew
Bright bands of wildflowers stripe these cotton crews, their warm colors popping against a black background. Bold orange toes and subtly striped ruffle cuffs form the perfect frame to these works of art.

Enchanter’s-Nightshade, Circaea alpina (Onagraceae).
Circaea is named after the Greek Goddess Circe, an enchantress. Interestingly, though the specific epithet is “alpina”, this species is most commonly found in cool, damp forests.

Title: “A Super Day In California!“
Size: 16x20 inches
Medium: acrylic on board
SOLD
We did this little painting for the massive Hello Kitty 45th Anniversary Exhibition that opened last week here in Los Angeles, CA at COREY HELFORD GALLERY. We were thinking about the experience of seeing this past spring’s wildflower super bloom paired with a once in a decade mass migration of millions of painted lady butterflies. I think we spend far too little time appreciating the miracles that nature creates, and far too much time contributing to its destruction. Many would argue that by viewing, or making known the existence of these remaining pockets of natural beauty/ ephemeral wildlife events, we contribute to their ultimate destruction. On the other hand, sharing these things may make people appreciate them more and want to care for their continued existence on the Earth.
Its hard to know how to walk this fine line, especially in this age of social media, where people can flock to any place you/event you give a name or location to. Still, we do want to share it with people we know would appreciate and respect these natural events - if Hello Kitty came to visit us in California, I think we would entrust her with this experience as she would probably be in the moment and appreciate its beauty deeply, rather than just scrambling for a selfie.
Anyhow - the opening for the exhibition was a massive event - TV news coverage, line around the block all night to get in to see it, people decked out in costume, with Hello Kitty herself on hand to take photos with, not to mention a massive collection of amazing interpretations of Hello Kitty by 100 international artists ( Caro Buermann did an amazing job curating this huge show).
The show is on view till August 3rd, 2019, so if you are in LA and love Hello Kitty, do go check it out!

“Super Bloom 2017″
12 x 9 inches
Nihonga painting on board
Kozy’s first painted depiction of one of California’s tremendous wildflower “Super bloom” events, based on one of our visits to a spot that happened to exploding particularly magnificently in 2017. We felt like we were in some dreamy psychedelic fantasy movie. I just didn’t seem real. It was an ideal subject for a painting for our exhibition “The Golden State” at Gregorio Escalante Gallery.
