"Moonrise" Original 16"x20" Painting on Canvas here
This week my featured painting is "Moonrise," an original big eye black ghost painting. I painted it for Diversity and Inclusion: The Influence of African-American Art in Southern California at the Ontario Museum of Art Exhibit. She was inspired by a folktale. I loved painting her fluffy hair. This original painting is available as are art prints and LE ACEO prints! The art has a painterly lowbrow surreal feel...
Most of my art is also available on my website at lisabellarusso.com; however, on the first Tuesday of the month, I like to put some art prints and LE ACEO prints on ebay at a lower promotional rate for the duration of the auctions... This month, my theme is some of my lovely dark skinned maidens in honor of Black History Month. If you would like to take a look; you may see them here.

HELLO KITTY 45th Anniversary Group Show (Closed Show) II
Corey Helford Gallery
JUNE 29 - AUGUST 3, 2019
I love Hello Kitty and I love art, so this show was a perfect storm of love for me! Some of my favorite artists had works in the show and I was introduced to some new artists as well. I photographed most of the show, so it will be a while until I've rezised and shared my pictures, but I hope you will enjoy them as they come along.
In some cases I have photos of me with the art as part of my #withtheart series of photographs. For this show, my wonderful and talented mother made me a solo Hello Kitty crochet doll as well as a hat with multiple figures! I hope you will enjoy them as well.
