ART WALK NEWS!!!!!!ART WALK NEWS!!!!!!ART WALK NEWS!!!!!!
With tens of thousands of visitors each week, Art Walks are a great opportunity for many artists to expose and sell their works. Also, revenue generated from the festivities help support local economies, but as far as we are concerned, the moment you walk into any exhibit in support of THE ARTS even if its not an ART WALK event...You’re...ART WALKING.

GAME CHANGER COLLAGE BY CHRISTIAN COLLINS
A few things I learned about myself and working within creative industries was that art and music are very powerful, capable of being used by clever marketeers to sell us everything from life-saving medicines to cancer. The more I gave in to this idea the more determined I’d become to support the arts and its tremendous responsibility to uplift rather than damage humanity.
RICK TAUB MUSIC EVENTS
In my life’s effort so far, I’ve worked as a schoolteacher, volunteer coordinator for the homeless, founded two art and music non-profits, published two DTLA newspapers, been twice recognized by the City of LA for my work in the arts, and made the July 2014 centerfold of LA Magazine for coordinating the largest ART WALK event in Los Angeles just this past summer.

LETTERS FROM HOME BY ALAN BAMBERGER
Q: My great grandmother was friends and corresponded with a wellknown American artist for several years in the early 1900s, and I have a number of letters and two photographs of the artist saved from the relationship. Are these worth anything?
Two additional factors influencing the value of artist photographs have to do with who the photographers were and how old the artists were when the photographs were taken. Briefly, the more important the photographer and the younger the artist (the earlier the artist was in his or her career), the more valuable the photograph tends to be. Condition, size, overall composition, and whether or not a photograph is known or published also impact value. Artist photographs range in price from the low hundreds to hundreds of thousands of thousands of dollars each for the finest images of the most famous artists taken by the most famous photographers. Personal scrapbooks, journals or studio files are perhaps the most valuable manuscript items that artists can maintain during their lifetimes, and are often the single most important archives relating to artists’ careers. Americans in particular didn’t start to research and write extensively about their artists, especially lesser known ones, until relatively recently. Many other artists were not fully recognized for their talents until after they had passed away and, as a result, little is known about their lives and careers. Scrapbooks and files pertaining to these sorts of artists are quite valuable and highly sought after.
A: Any documents, letters, photographs, and other manuscript materials relating to artists’ careers are collectible and have value. Dealers, collectors, museums, archives, and other institutions acquire such items primarily for their historical significance, and occasionally for their value as art objects. These materials provide insight into how artists lived their lives and contain everything from ordinary day-to-day ramblings A better scrapbook or studio file contains newspaper and magazine clippings about to important facts about specific works of art, business and personal relationships, love an artist, catalogs of exhibitions that the artist participated in, photographs of the affairs, career milestones and more. Artists letters can be worth anything from a artist in various situations like art openings and events, letters from collectors, and few dollars each to many thousands of dollars commendations or awards. More general items pertaining to the artist’s local or Artist letters can be worth anything from a few dollars each to many thoueach. On the low end of the price continuum regional art community that document activities of fellow artists, critics, dealers sands of dollars each. On the low end of the price continuum might be a two-sentence might be a two-sentence letter from a minor and collectors also enhance value.

For examof a million dollars. ple, a brief letter from an artist saying hello to the recipient and talking about the weather is worth less than a five-pager detailing an arrangement for the artist to produce a large painting or sculpture for a major collector. Always be on the lookout for any papers or documents relating to an artist’s life and career, no matter how insigAs for photographs of artists, they’re evaluated in much the same way as letters. To begin with, artists nificant they might seem (and if you’re an artist, perhaps think about setting select materials aside rather than throwing photographs are generally more collectible than letters because art collecting is a visual pursuit, and them away-- they may not seem like much now, but history may well render them treasures). Smaller items are referred to photographs are almost always more visual than letters. In terms of value, the more complex and interesting an as “ephemera” and larger ones as “manuscript materials.” They all have value and they’re all worth saving. These include image and the more important the artist, the more the photograph tends to be worth. A photograph showing an artist at old bills of sale, exhibition catalogues, personal journals, contracts or agreements, business cards, show announcements, work in his or her studio and surrounded by other artists, for example, is worth significantly more than a simple seated and even cancelled checks. No matter how much money they may or may not be worth, they are destined to enrich our lives portrait showing the artist from the waist up. Add additional dollars if the photograph is signed or inscribed by the artist, and teach us about the history of art and the artists who created it. and still more if it is also signed by the photographer, and still more if the photographer is known.
Brook Johnson “Richard’s New Life” Paper 5” x 7” This piece is inspired by my friendship with a brilliant documentary maker who focused on homeless people and the endless pages of immortality that accompany a documentary’s subject. I had a very powerful friendship with a person who helped bring justice to the homeless community in Santa Rosa, California. From many conversations and after much persuasion, this person helped me pick up my art again after several years’ hiatus. This piece is the first piece I had done in years and was the one that inspired me to continue to do collage, and has brought me to where I am today, as a professional artist.” Brook began her art training as a young teen, receiving private fine art lessons from a local artist in Sykesville, Maryland. She continued her art training into her early college years and instantly embraced collage and surrealism as means of coping with her growing disillusionment with the world. It began as an automatic hobby that turned into an all-consuming passion and means of expression. She considers her work experiments with imperfection and fear, as well as exercises connecting Life with Death and other inescapable fates and collective memories. When not covered in glue and hundreds of deconstructed images, Brook enjoys screen writing, playing the piano and entertaining her 4 year old daughter. FMI: REALCOLLAGE@GMAIL.COM
Christian Collins and Briana Williams “Game Changer” Cut paper on wood panel 16” x 16”
Tanya Mikaela BrownBagBuddha #7 COLLAGE 15”x 16 1/2”
I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts and grew up in nearby Rockport, MA. I loved drawing and creating as a child, but really took off with art later in life. I have not taken an art class since high school, and have been developing my own style of collage art for almost 15 years. I have shown my art at a variety of venues, including festivals, nightclubs and galleries in Portland, OR, and Asheville, NC. I intend to continue to develop more works, and press on to show the world my creations, which push the boundaries of handmade paper collage art.
Raised by artists and creative thinkers in Westport Ct., a thriving artists community, Los Angeles based collage artist Tanya Mikaela has been creating in a variety of mediums throughout her life. She received a BFA from Parsons School of Design, and is a member of both Collage Artists of America, and Los Angeles Experimental Artists Group. As a Spiritual Practitioner her Art of the Soul Workshops combine the healing arts with fine art to assist others in birthing and celebrating their own creativity.
Inspired by LOVE...this piece is a collaborative piece made with Briana Williams. The co-creator and I spent many hours working on this piece together digging through our own personal image collections to find the perfect bits to include. When I moved a few of the smaller images were lost in an envelope somewhere for about 9 months until I finally found them and the piece could be effectively completed. This piece resides in her personal collection.
Her work has been shown, honored and collected on both coasts, and her collage of Obama was featured in Shepard Fairy’s Manifest Hope show in DC for the 2009 inaugural events. It is now part of the book, “Art for Obama”. Currently she is represented by Gallery Five08 in Santa Monica, as well as Jalan Jalan in Topanga and Aum and Garden in Sherman Oaks.
It is the biggest, the best collaboration, and the most colorful of all my works thus far consisting of a variety of feelings and a hope for joy in the future. A cartoon explosion of life’s best energy congealed into a totem of fractal multidimensional bliss. It represents years of evolution of a style and level of intricate detail that I have been striving toward for years. FMI: BLUESPECTRALMONKEY.COM
Tanya is the recipient of numerous awards, among them two Peace Project awards, and several American Art Awards. She has created art to benefit Doctors without Borders, Women Against Gun Violence, The Rescue Train, Feeding America, the Peace Project, and the Agape International Spiritual Center. Her favorite form of expression is Upcycled Collage; using reclaimed materials to express her spiritual vision through her artwork. “Brown Bag Buddha #7”, and also #17 are from her series of (so far) 23 Buddha’s, all created from torn reclaimed paper on the back of a Whole Foods grocery bag. All images are 15”x 16 1/2” and have been mounted on linen and framed in an archival plexi-box frame. FMI: TANYAMIKAELA.COM

or several years, I have opened my studio to the public as part of the Long Achilles Beach Open Studio Tour, a free tour of artist’s studios in Long Beach. I have also offered drawing and sculpture workshops to the public at the Stephen Werlick Studio in Long Beach.
“Three Minus One” a life-size, 3-figure group constructed of steel, plaster, burlap, steel mesh, shellac, and pigments. The figures are separate so that the composition can be reconfigured according to the space available.
I
am a sculptor/artist native to Southern California who lives and works in Long Beach. My figurative sculptures in polychrome plaster, bronze, terracotta, and steel evoke a sense of turbulent motion and inner conflict. I began my formal training as a painter at the age of eight and then turned to sculpture in college in my early twenties. I have exhibited my work throughout Southern California and have pieces in public collections, including that of California State University, Long Beach, University Extension Services, as well as many private and corporate collections.
I
have taught sculpture classes at Fullerton College, The Academy of Art College, and California State University, Long Beach, from which I hold a Masters of Fine Arts in sculpture as well as a Bachelors of Fine Arts in drawing and painting. Since then, I have shown my work at various Southern California galleries, art walks and invitational exhibits.
R
ecently I worked for the major California art fabricators, Carlson and Co. and Handmade, on a large-scale sculpture for world-renowned artist, Jeff Koons.
How did I get started in sculpture?
Apparently, I am good at smushing things with my hands.
I started young. With mud-pies and snails fresh from the garden, (pictures prove this), and moved on to crayons and fabric paint, cookie dough, and various musical instruments. But I didn’t really pursue art in any serious way. In college, after multitudinous tries at different majors, I spent a long time thinking about what I was most suited for and I realized that I was at my best when I could make things directly with my hands, plus that I really wanted to draw. So I settled on art which allowed me to smush things with my hands and didn’t require math.
I
work predominantly with the figure.
I
have always been interested in Plaster and Shellac the human body; the way it moves, how things connect under the skin. I started out with traditional materials: clay, plaster, wax, and bronze. The pieces have evolved into multi- media structures of direct plaster, steel and wire mesh. While I love the way the density and pliability of clay relates to the physical mass of the human body, after seeing the work of Deborah Butterfield, I became interested in the idea of volume without mass; being able to create a sense of the interior spaces of the body, and how its internal forms interconnect. This led me to explore the open and transparent forms that you see in my latest sculptures. FMI: SUSANERIKSONHAWKINS.COM

COLLAGe Handiedan
The Art of Dutch Artist
Handiedan works in series. This suffices as an eclectic personal exploration or review of her main designs journey and process. With each piece on either paper, an-
tique wood or rusty metal, or a different size, containing different collage elements and details result in a different story, emotion and time dimension within each piece. When having a closer look at a piece, the main aesthetic and erotic female form works as the carrier of the stories that lies underneath and on the surface. Through the paper and collage layers fused with the ornamental background, tiny items and rarities interact with her drawn cartoonesque character and pen doodles riddled throughout her collage work.
T
he art of Dutch artist Handiedan involves a complex cut and paste mixture of computer montage and highly detailed sculptural hand cut collages, complimented by conscientiously collected antique ornamental frames.
Built out of multiple classic pin-up body parts, the female form stands out over a backdrop of baroque and Victorian Neo-Classicism designs. All culled from
international currencies and stamps, antique sheet music ornaments, playing cards, cigar bands, Asian papers with personal items and drawings. Intricate and meticulously crafted, the collages represent the gradual accumulation of both the layers in her work and her work process self.
Handiedan first builds up her digital design out of the gathered collage material and drawings. Then she rebuilds the design into a meticulously crafted multi layered hand cut collage with precisely added items. A complex visual puzzle and labyrinth of collage and paper layers, interchangeably intermixed, that stands out in relief.
Collage art enables Handiedan to combine all her visual fascinations on a single backdrop, where she can portray and explore her personal interest in the era’s of life and time. Past, present and future elements and cul-
tural facets can be found woven in her work. Her personal journey’s of that what is, what was and that which can’t yet be explained are found within her meticulously portrayed artworks.

EXPLORERSCOPE Scorpio (October 23-November 21): Scorpios can hold a grudge and wait patiently for the right moment to strike. Like Sir Francis Drake the British explorer/slave-trading pirate who led the second expedition to sail around the world for Queen Elizabeth in 1577. Waiting just like he did, for his moment to strike at Spanish ships and settlements for food and treasures, you have no remorse and enjoy letting others feel the pain of your stinger. However before you start a war, or die from a fever like Drake try to remember your positive traits of diplomacy, intuition, intelligence, spirituality and sensitivity. These will help you keep your ship sailing in calmer seas. Sagittarius (November 22-December 21): You are an incredible optimist Saggy, like Leif Erikson, the first European to sail to North America and son of Erik the Red, you’re always looking at the positive side of things. As strong as a Viking in the year 1000, you love the great outdoors and also have an adventurous nature. But if you want to rule kingdoms, you’ll do good not to completely turn a deaf ear to criticism or turn down suggestions about your projects from others, especially in the days before and directly following the full moon. Capricorn (December 22-January 19): Everybody is fed up with your insatiable desire to climb higher and your ability to become selfish and stubborn when attempting to achieve your goals dear Capricorn. Like the Italian explorer, Christopher Columbus who sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in 1492, hoping to find a route to India but ended up in North American there comes a time, when everyone must admit they are wrong. This month will bring plenty of money making opportunities your way, but in your quest for gold and riches, be careful not to sacrifice the interest and feelings of others while fulfilling your goals. Aquarius (January 20-February 18): Aquarians are extremely vulnerable and sensitive - we know!...And although it may seem like your surrounded by many friends in reality you rarely have close friends just acquaintances. Such was the case of Estevanico aka Black Stephen, a Muslim slave from Morocco who was one of the early explorers of the Southwestern United States. After facing hurricanes, fights with Native Americans, a ship wreck and the abandonment of his master, he was enslaved again when he finally made it to Mexico City, and later sent out with Coronado by a new master, only to be killed by Zuni Indians as they entered the pueblo they were sent to explore and conquer, supposedly the fabled Golden city of Cíbola in 1536. Moral of the story: This holiday season although you may find yourself at many clubs, organizations or forums stick to those events that allow you to enthusiastically participate in intellectual discussions. You’ll find you’re a great communicator as long as others give you the freedom to come and go and speak as you please. Pisces (February 19-March 20): My, my, my dear Pisces...You live in their imaginary world that barely has a connection with reality as seemed did Spanish Explorer, Ponce de Leon, the first European to set foot in Florida. Ponce de Leon was searching for the legendary fountain of youth and other riches back in April 1513. Instead he was met by Native American warriors, who wounded many of his men with arrows, including himself and later died in Havana, Cuba from the wounds. Point being, its okay to look at the world through a rosy window, you might just discover something awesome, but try not to challenge reality when it comes to your finances this month, or you may just day dream yourself into a dangerous situation towards by the end of the month. Aries (March 21-April 19): Talk about a disaster! Your strong personality and leadership qualities wont help you one bit when opportunities arrive mid-month if you don’t judge the pros and cons of the situation before acting. Like, La Salle the first French explorer from Canada to sail down the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico in 1681, exploring may be awesome, but establishing a fur-trade along the river and making enemies with all the local nations may not be worth the risk. Think it through before making you’re final decision, and take a strong example from La Salle who was shot and killed by mutineers who left his body for the animals to eat with the rest of the expedition killed by the Karankawa Indians.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Known for your determination and zeal dear Taurus, just like American pioneer Daniel Boone founder of the first US settlement west of the Appalachian mountains. Like Boone, who even after losing two sons and a brother to the Cheyenne and Shawnee Indians, no hardship or devoid of luxury will ever stop you from reaching your goals once you’ve set your target. This time of year, however, as did Abraham Lincoln’s grandmother and grandfather, when Boone first bought them to his settlement, in Kentucky, back in 1779, you’ll do good to set your sights on a new location with a new partner who can provide a mirror for your own self-discovery. Gemini (May 21-June 20): You’re full of duality dear Gemini and that helps when looking at a situation from a dual perspective. Like Lewis and Clark, who led the first American expedition to cross West in May, 1804, two heads are better than one. They were able to establish relations with two dozen Indian nations in order to avoid starvation, harsh winters and/or becoming hopelessly lost in the vast ranges of the Rocky Mountains. This month, your double mind set will work best with upcoming opportunities to get rid of what doesn’t work in your life, while also revealing dozens of new discoveries that await you on your path. Cancer (June 21-July 22): Cancerians are emotional, like it or not. Like Pocahontas who got so emotional she put her head on the chopping block to save the life of Captain John Smith from her father, Chief of the Powhatan Indians, in 1613 only to run off to England with another explorer, you’re life, may be prone to depression and other mental issues. However, being around family this Thanksgiving will be a well timed pick-me-up. Though you may be indicted with mood shifts and daring enough to ride any emotional roller coaster, inside your mental theme park, you’ll need to keep your emotions hidden when family drama arises, and you’ll need all the composure you can muster if you want to get you’re mindset back in time to complete your projects by the end of the month. Leo (July 23-August 22): You are full of energy and eager to jump into action dear Leo. Like Matthew A. Henson, first African-American Arctic explorer and navigator who with Robert Perry, and 4 Eskimos discovered the North Pole in 1909, you’ll be highly recognized and become the center of attraction for what you do. Because of your warm-spirited nature and your ability to communicate well with others, this month, in all your projects you will be highly successful. The stars are truly shining in your favor. Virgo (August 23-September 22): You have a pretty good sense of what’s good and bad and can be highly discriminating dear Virgo. Like Baron Alexander von Humboldt, the Prussian naturalist and explorer who collected plant, animal, and mineral specimens throughout the Americas, in 1799, you’re intentions are always good despite often remaining confused about some of the tougher decisions in life. It’s a good thing you’ll have plenty of support from family and friends as the month progresses. The full moon on the 6th will lend to the beginning of a long list of decisions most important to your future, so don’t hesitate to seek the advice from people who love and support your projects. Libra (September 23 and October 23): Balanced and perceived by others as fair dear Libra you will find yourself settling lots of disputes this month and often sought after by friends and kinfolk. However, with the new moon, you’ll have plenty phases of heightened activity but will easily slip into phases of complete inactivity and apathy as well. Like Dutch settler, Peter Minuit, famous for buying the island of Manhattan for about $24 worth of trinkets from Native Americans in 1626, you may not be able to conjure your fair nature so be careful not to become too dark or too cold, as did Minuit who died in a hurricane in the West Indies while on another trading mission in 1638.
