Varnish King


I had a unique opportunity to work with LA artists Bari Ziperstien, Jill Newman, and Nathan Redwood. A lot of people don’t realize what goes into a piece. Often people assume an artists work is entirely creative in nature. There is a certain level of engineering involved with what we do. A perfect example is the glory of water-proofing work that will be displayed outdoors. Which is what I did pretty much the whole time. I like working with my hands so I actually enjoyed it, I know I’m weird like that, but I wonder how many people would really get into Art if they knew that’s what they would be doing a lot… The show, ‘This House has a Bright Future,’ opens tomorrow May 20th and will be on display until June 24th. Its in Pasadena, CA at 730 N. Fair Oaks Ave. You can check Bari Ziperstien’s website for more information: www.bariziperstein.com
