Gag Me With A Toon 5

The 5th annual Gag Me With A Toon show opens Saturday, May 4th 2013 at WWA Gallery.
I have a new painting for this fun show. I chose the 80s cartoon character She-Ra, The Princess of Power as my subject, and used Botticelli's 'The Birth of Venus' as my inspiration.






Rewind to the sugar highs of childhood Saturday mornings and “toon” in on May 4th to this year’s Gag Me with a Toon 5 presented by WWA Gallery and curated by artists Steven Daily and Tomi Monstre. This much-loved annual exhibit has artists re-imagining the cartoons of their youth and what results are some totally tubular recreations of iconic characters spanning the 1960s-1990s!

Opening reception is from 7 – 10PM on Saturday, May 4th.
The exhibition will run until June 1st, 2013.
