Here is my art and me with my art at the show.  It was wonderful to look at the joy on some of the people's faces as they looked at my art.  This wall represents around a full year of what I have been doing.  There are some pieces that are not there because they didn't quite fit or were sold prior to the show, but that is almost all of the works I have done since around this time last year...  To see more of my art, please visit http://www.lisarusso.com.

One of Christopharo's Pieces for the Upcoming Show & Waterlily Fairy Painting WIP...

by Christopharo

This is one of the stunning pieces that Christopharo will be bringing to the show on Saturday here.  I am honored to have been selected to show with him.  His website is here and his facebook page is here.  He also runs auctions here.

I've done some more on my waterlily fairy maiden.  Petals and more petals...  I feel like each petal is its own galaxy and yet relates to a greater universe.  I am mainly focusing on this garden guardian work in progress right now.

Alex Ledante inspires me to try and be a better artist each and every day.  Christo Pharo inspired me to display some of my art and interact with people in person.  I am inspired by and thankful to both of them!  Thanks also to Dennis Delgado for letting me display my art at his gallery.

Artist Christopharo...

Art by Christopharo

I met Christopharo years ago through his brother, artist Alex Ledante, and I have been an admirer of his art; but, it is only recently that I have had the honor of seeing some of his most recent works firsthand.

Art by Christopharo

Christopharo has some of his traditional art up at Loft Beats in Pomona as part of a group show and has a solo showing of his 3d artwork in the foyer at Club 340.  The shows are running until the end of the month at least.

The art of Christopharo has a strong traditional foundation with an innovative edge.  Both his traditional art and his digital art sing with beauty.

With all of his contemporary flair, his art has a classic art nouveau quality that I am deeply drawn to.

If you have the opportunity to see his 3d art with 3d glasses, it is well worth it; but, even without the glasses, his art is powerful and lovely.
