The San Francisco/Silicon Valley Art Fair was here this past weekend and it was wonderful to walk through the booths looking at spectacular artworks.

Here I am visiting STAR – Hunters Point Shipyard non-profit for the arts, that had a booth at the fair advertising our upcoming Open Studio this coming weekend.  It felt awesome being one of the 30 artist who represented Hunters Point Shipyard Artists!

The Cataclysmic Megashear Ranch

“The Cataclysmic Megashear Ranch, or simply the Ranch, started as a live-work space in the late 90’s in the heart of San Francisco’s Bayview neighborhood. In 2000, the Ranch reopened its doors as a collective and an art studio. Since then, countless artists, makers, writers, performers, musicians, and other creative engineers buildt the Ranch into a one-of-a-kind, irreplacable community.”
