Last Trip, Comic Con. Next Trip, Watch Bot City

Well, as you may have guessed--or witnessed if you were there--Comic Con with Ink Pen Mutations was a blast, once again.

Tons of new goodies, among them being the final additions to the now complete Van Wyck Series--a hard-boiled post-apocalyptic Los Angeles, as told in five parts. Author Chris Cobb talks about it at Comic Con.

And as always, Mother tries to look picture perfect at Comic Con:

But let's not focus on the past. The future is always upon us. And since we're on the subject of time, it is good to note that every minute is under the close watch of the inhabitants of Watch Bot City, and Mother Ave Rose, their  maker. Would you like to meet their maker? Come to La Luz de Jesus!


 Mother has been hard at work, putting together the newest addition to Watchbot World. Watchbot City 2. The opening is on August 3rd, from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. The watchbot goods will remain  there until September 2nd. Again, that's at 4633 Hollywood Blvd. LA, CA  90027.

Come meet the watchbots.
And see the land where they work and live!

The Circus is Still in Town this Artwalk

So perhaps you missed The Hive Gallery Circus Circus opening this past Saturday on June 2nd. All is not lost, my friends, because the circus is still in town! This coming artwalk is on Thursday, June 2, 2012.  As always the Hive Gallery is at:

729 S. Spring Street
Downtown Los Angeles, Ca 90014
Hours from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.

And as always, the way you like it, entrance is totally free!

This past Saturday, I took my clowning quite seriously:
but my next costume is sure to be new and improved!

And let's not forget the artwork at the artwalk either:


I created a collection of jewelry not only with this show in mind, but with the mission of funding my daughter's sweet sixteen. Come pick up a piece! I made the prices into a real steal of a deal for you!

And let's not forget this month's special guest artist,
Come see what the circus freaks have in store this time
and support a special birthday girl's smile.
