Tragedy Mask Pin Available Now and the Enamel Pin craze!
Hey all, I wanted to announce that I've just released my 2nd Soft Enamel Pin. "Tragedy Mask" pins that are inspired by The Crow and Brandon Lee. Here is a look how they turned out:
I'm pretty excited about the possibilities of creating and designing enamel pins, I've only created two so far, but have designs for so many more. I think it's becoming a new craze, the collecting and making of these pins. It's a wonderful way to collect and show off a piece of art by an artist you admire. I'm collecting and trading up a storm lately. I will have some exciting releases coming up this year, so keep updated. Here is a look at my two pins together:
If you are interested in purchasing one (or both) for yourself or loved ones, go HERE to buy.
In addition Creature Features in Burbank, California have a small number of "Green Bat Creature" Pins available IN STORE at their Burbank location. This is a great store for collectors of Special Effects Makeup, Monster movies and anything Science Fiction/Fantasy. My pin seems to fit right in, look for it in their "Dracula Case" next time you're in! Check out Creature Features hours and info HERE on their website.

LALUZAPALOOZA 2016
OUR 30TH ANNUAL GROUP SHOW
March 4 – 27, 2016
Opening Reception: Friday, March 4th, 8-11 PM
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
La Luz De Jesus Gallery proudly presents our annual juried group exhibition, LALUZAPALOOZA. This gigantic, no-theme show features works from some of the freshest and most relevant artists working today. Last year we sorted through 16,000 submissions from commercial illustrators, graphic designers, tattooists, scenics, students, street taggers, animators and working gallery artists. How many will we see this year? Past shows have featured as many as 330 pieces and as few as 100, makingthis the most exclusive selection of tastefully, jam-packed, salon-style exhibited works in Post-Pop. There will be some familiar names from our ever-growing roster of feature artists, but an overwhelming percentage of the work this year will come from a brand new batch of previously undiscovered, emerging talent. Will you be a patron of the next great generation?
The opening night gala will feature libations and other surprises.

THE HISTORY ///
Previously our annual group show was called “Everything but the Kitschen Sync,” but it began life in October 1986 as the “Día de los Muertos” show which was entirely focused on the folk art, sculptures and imagery of Mexico’s “Day of the Dead” celebration. By 1995, gallery owner and curator Billy Shire felt the show had run its course and presented other themed group exhibitions such as the 1996 “21st Century Tiki Show.” In 1998 Shire decided to present a non-themed show dedicated to illustrative and narrative artwork. As many local artists work in commercial graphic art fields such as illustration, cartooning, animation, etc., the show was named “Uncommercial Art by Commercial Artists.” In 2004, Shire changed the show title to the more encompassing and less-cumbersome “Everything But the Kitschen Synch.” Several spelling and name variations later, here we are…
“Everyone looks at this show for new and interesting artists” states Shire – “and indeed, not only does La Luz de Jesus pick artists from the group show for smaller group and solo shows down the line–numerous curators and owners of other galleries also keep their eyes on the yearly show for potential artists to add to their rosters.”
“This is the one show annually that most patrons look forward to seeing, as it’s a chance to discover new artists in the venue that has launched so many careers,” notes gallery director Matt Kennedy. “Every year we manage to discover a new conglomeration of fresh talent, and among them a class of breakout successes. That’s really a credit to the accessible talent pool. The quality and availability of instruction (both in schools and through independent study) coupled with the the culture that this city attracts, fosters a welcoming environment for people with the ability to create –often in reaction to their individual situations.”
Join La Luz de Jesus Gallery as we continue to support the latest and most original efforts from the world’s alternative art scene.
