Another of the potted cyclamen at the Oakland City Center. Tonite was a late nite. I visited the Focus Gallery at Polk and Union. They had an abstract show of photography by four members. I have not done much abstract work so my goal was a better appreciation of abstracts. Art Levit’s work is beautiful and elegant even though his subjects are trash, graffiti, rust, etc. Eric Larson had intriguing idea for a collection that I will call “Commuter Art”. He shoots while driving his car and gets very interesting results. Of course, I tried while driving home. My result is a mishmash of squiggles (but fun).
