I should know who I am by now.

It's almost time for my next solo and I'm casting all things fun aside while I furiously paint away in my fly ridden studio. If I come out alive, I'll see you on November 6th.



‘I Should Know Who I Am By Now’

Artist Nate Frizzell opens his second solo exhibition with the gallery after
recent shows in the UK and New York. The new exhibit continues to
revolve around the themes of self-discovery through an examination of
the human condition.

The exploration of personal identity and individual choices made over
the course of a lifetime are viewed in Frizzell’s winter themed paintings
and his first sculptural elements.

Opening Reception: Saturday, November 6th, 7-10pm

Nathan Ota at La Luz

One of my old teachers and (I like to think)buddy, Nathan Ota, has a great show opening tomorrow night at La Luz de Jesus Gallery. I'm pretty excited and you should be too. Hope to see you there.



Nathan Ota
"An Unforeseen Homecoming"

La Luz de Jesus Gallery
September 3 - 26, 2010
Artist Reception: Friday, September 3rd; 8-11 PM
Print Release & Signing: Friday, September 3rd; 7-8 PM

For years, Nathan Ota has been pursuing new worlds, both dark and fantastic, to explore in his paintings. Ota has used his stand-ins - a blind bird, a drunk monkey, a one-eyed robot lost in the woods - to travel through dreamlands that hold fantasies and tragedies.

In "An Unforeseen Homecoming," Ota's first solo show at La Luz de Jesus, the artist sets out on an expedition that lands him in the unlikeliest destination - the world inside the artist's own studio. The questions that greet him, and the answers that he finds, are at once simple and impossible, hopeful and heartbreaking, permanent and fleeting.

Ota currently teaches at Otis and Santa Monica College. This is Ota's fifth show overall at La Luz de Jesus.

Coming soon

I still have a couple months of long nights and relentless self doubt ahead of me, but I'm pretty excited for my upcoming show in November. I think I'm really benefiting from the switch to oils and I think it's going to be a big improvement from my last solo in LA...things are looking a lot better technically and I think I'm pushing my boundaries a bit more.

Because I love you...here's a lil preview of things to come.
