Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art/JCCC Aberrant Abstraction Show:

I went to see the Aberrant Abstraction exhibit at the Nerman last night. I loved most of the show, and felt that the choice of artwork was a great representation of Contemporary Abstraction. I went specifically to look at Keltie Ferris's work. I am in love with the new book The Art of the Map, by Katharine Harmon; and Keltie's work reminds me of abstract maps. I loved her work up close and personal, but as a public speaker, I felt she was not very effective. At the show I discovered and was most impressed with the work of Agathe Snow. Pictured above is one of her pieces entitled "Hey, It's Payday". She had 5 of these large hanging recycled art "dreamcatchers" in the exhibit. I love the way they moved and twirled in the room. Go see the exhibit and also check out Cordy Ryman's "Green Wave".

This baby is TOO cute!

Watch his amazing You Tube clip!

I picked up this "Haute Doll" at Mission Road Antique Mall. She looks very.... aloof.  Check out some art from the Palmer Museum at PSU:
