Great Photos by Angela deVille taken on Sunday, July 7th before we headed to the Alameda Antique Faire. I love the images of my studio. She did such a good job! Can't way to go through the others to see the treasures!

Man Ray & Lee Miller at Legion

10am Sunday, August 5th, 2012 Checked out the Man Ray & Lee Miller Exhibition. Very nice...some of the photos I really enjoyed...
This Self-portrait by Lee Miller
This image of Man Ray & Lee Miller at the Shooting Gallery in Paris.
Woman in a Bell Jar is very interesting and slightly disturbing at the same time.
I forgot that this image was of Lee Miller...

Houdini @ the Contemporary Jewish Museum, SF



Checked out this exhibit yesterday. It was really cool. I bought the catalog. There is some really interesting information on the Jewish Museum (NY) website. http://www.thejewishmuseum.org/exhibitions/houdini

One of the only images that is not in the catalog is of Bess Houdini (Harry's wife) amongst piles of the Houdini's book collection. Supposedly it is from the library of congress but I could not find any info on the web :( I really want to recreate that image. There was also some strange paint on the image. Sort of blocking out parts of the print but in really small areas?
