Almost a year ago, we told you about Nate Frizzell’s first solo show. This past Saturday his most recent solo show, Lost in the Thicket, opened at LeBasse Projects in Culver City, California. The show, replete with paintings full of masked characters intermingling with animals, was well received, as evidenced by nearly every piece being sold.
We are totally impressed by the soft, portrait work of Australian artist Jodie Anne Candy.
