Holy Smokes! It's Comic Con!!

Here are some pix from this year's Comic-Con! As usual, it was an 

overwhelming super duper pop culture explosion-a-rama! I released my 

"Secret Live's of Dolls" book (pictured left in photo) 

which features a compilation of my favorite portrait paintings. 

You can get it now through  blurb.com

Check out the lovely banner of Miss Mindy's! 

Makes you just wanna hang it in your bedroom! And oooh!

those olive green walls! I'm sure we were the only booth

in the entire convention hall sporting that rockin green!

HORRAY FOR POP FEMME SANTA FE!!

Miss Mindy and I traveled to lovely Santa Fe for our Pop Femme show reception (and a little R&R) and I must say that my new favorite people on the planet are the owners of Pop Gallery in Santa Fe. They were divine and wonderful hosts! The reception was filled with people, balloons, champagne and chocolate - and jam packed with art by some pretty amazing women painters! Above from left to right is  Julia Martin, Jessica Bea Hillis, me, Sophie (my daughter), Sharla Throckmorton-McDowell (Pop Gallery Owner), and my sis the ever colorful (in her red boots!) Miss Mindy.

To see art from that show, visit the POP Santa Fe Gallery Website!
