Paige Jiyoung Moon
“Here & There”

January 3rd – February 2nd, 2014
Artist Reception: Friday, January 3rd; 8-11 PM

Paige Moon‘s drawings and paintings are both lively and subtle and full of mirth. Her characters perform mundane tasks with great style, and her attention to detail helped win her the Silver Medal from the NY Society of Illustrators this past year. All the more impressive after learning that she’s only a year out of art school.

Joanne Seohyun Nam
“Terra Cognito”

January 3rd – February 2nd, 2014
Artist Reception: Friday, January 3rd; 8-11 PM

Joanne Nam‘s soft colors enhance rather than soften her stark and sometimes spooky subject matter. Her work is quite modern and yet filled with folklore from her native South Korea. This hybridized palette is as strong a representation of current Los Angeles painting as you are likely to see.
