Garcia's Genius

No, this isn't the expression of inner emo-ness, or whatever lies beneath the depths of my soul. It's wonder artwork by Camille Rose Garcia from a past exhibit for the San Jose Art Museum. I remember a few months back I was with Gayle for the showing. It looked very Dr. Seuss inspired. Initially, I thought it was a children's exhibit, but on a closer look, the imagery wasn't pleasant as I first observed. You can't tell from the image above, but there was glitter to the paintings, which added a touch of girly-ness to the gloomy slaughtered deers. It's an innocence and doom juxaposition. I like the woodland creatures, the scenery incoorperated into the painting. I won't give a hand in interpretting the symbolism within Garcia's works, but her talent is inevitable. Prints of her work are selling, priced $950 US dollars at the San Jose Museum of Art's website, but you can also go on the artist's official website to find out more information about miss Garcia. I wish she made some graphic tees for us. Heck, I'd shell out $15 bucks for even for an autographed shirt!
