last night i attended an exhibit at the basement named 'fields and foreclosures.' the show was put on by BECA (Bakersfield Emerging Contemporary Artists) the topic was life as you see it in bakersfield. the exhibit was held in the large room of the gallery, the night was filled with spectators, beautiful art, and original entertainment.

i studied the curator's efforts and movements. i saw alot of my self in her, remembering the stress of putting on past events, all the last minute loose ends and unnatural yet self emposed stress. ;) the price you pay for perfection. i only hope my 7/3 show is as successful . congrats ladies of BECA...
