It’s another trip to L.A. but this time with a twist.

The show highlights the… Continue reading Live at the Hive: L.A. animators art opening
15 minutes in blue fame
Some Hollywood set designers took an interest in a few Bev Hogue blue paintings for an upcoming pilot earlier this year.

It all came full circle recently when a collector asked me to custom paint her leather boots. My experience designing shoes… Continue reading Walking on the wild side

Tura Satana: an actor, force of nature, and now object of art. When the buxom Hollywood B-movie star died, her many fans mourned but the world awoke to her power and beauty. Many tributes, including one in L.A. in late 2014, helped tell Tura’s story. At a time in cinema when women were getting slapped… Continue reading Faster Pussycat Kill Kill!
