My friend Heather is not stoned nor drunk in this photo. She's just excited to be buying t-shirts by Katy Fischer!

Work ranges in price from $100 - $30,000.
Buy, Buy, Buy!
My favorite part of this show is the General Store in the cave in the back. Lots of artist-made-stuff -- t-shirts, small paintings, bongs, pillows, jewlery, books, ash trays, etc. -- for prices ranging from $10 - $1,000. It was hard to walk out of there without something. (I walked away with 2 small Megan Whitmarsh embroidery paintings! If you are in LA, check out her show at SixSpace! You have to see these gorgeous jewels in person.)
