N.Y.C.

Has it really been a week and 1/2 since I last posted?
I just can't get into the remote blogging thing. I did post a few pictures of the trip to Tumblr while in NYC, but for Blogger I prefer to go, gather, return to the comfort of home and post. Well, I'm now back in Los Angeles - here are a few highlights from our trip:

The install & opening at CRG (I was too busy chatting to take photos on opening night...if anybody has any photographs of the opening, please feel free to send them my way...we saw so many old friends opening night, and it was great to meet new friends- many of them fellow bloggers- in person finally).

Studio Visit with Marc Handelman- who has a stunner of a show upcoming at Sikkema Jenkins.

Eating- at Bar Tano in Brooklyn again (yum). Other than Bar Tano & the lavish and generous spread provided by CRG for the opening dinner at Matsuri, we ate mostly at restaurants and cafes near the gallery & hotel in Chelsea (Le Grainne, Cookshop, & La Lunchonette- all recommended for good, basic food).

Some random shots of art, street art and my pilgrimage to the Chelsea Hotel (had to go after reading Just Kids...I sat in the lobby for a bit). So much more to say, but I need to go to bed- I'm still on NYC time- it's 3 a.m. there! Will post on the little bit of shopping I did there soon :) It's good to be back.

Wow, Tomory's show looks so amazing. That room Jennifer ... my heart is pounding! Big congratulation to Mr. T.

Looks like a wonderful time over all - good sights, good food, generally wonderful NYC atmosphere. Miss it. Love that you made a special stop at the Chelsea Hotel. Just finished "Just Kids" - another reason to make my heart is pound.

Happy homecoming xo

It was so great meeting you and Tomory at his opening! It looks like you had a lovely visit to NYC, despite our indecisive weather. xo

Jennifer, from what I can see in your pictures, Tomory's paintings rock. Wish I could see them in person.
