and so long, los angeles. i never really liked you anyway.

Stumbled upon some great art...

Browsing LACMA the other day, I stumbled upon "Phantom Sightings: Art after the Chicano Movement."

This one artist really struck a chord with me. Her name's Shizu Saldamando--she's half Hispanic, half Japanese, and you can see the racial ambiguity of her subjects in her art. The website's pictures don't really do the paintings any justice, but still check it out.
