As part of the Recovery Discovery Tour, artist Edem Elesh will open his home studio in Mount Angelus, a hilltop neighborhood in Highland Park.
The work of Los Angeles based painter, Edem Elesh, finds itself in the murky waters of the viewer's unconscious.Fantastical, dream-like and dystopian, Elesh's imagery is set in our postmodern time, at an intersection where the subject matter of various sorts has been cut loose from it's origins and dropped onto the foreign occupied space of the canvas.With an irreverence and narrative approach to working, each subject has been abandoned and ultimately left to stake its claim in a new and unfamiliar territory.When asked about the conception and drive of an individual painting, Elesh straightforwardly replies that, "Everyday situations of existence" are always where his subject matter remains fertile.

Steven Anderson last opened his home studio on the Arroyo Arts Collective Discovery tour in 2003. After a five year hiatus, Steven's home studio high in the hills of Eagle Rock will again be a featured destination on the tour.
From the artist's web site
Steven L. Anderson was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1971, and raised by a family of creative environmentalists. He achieved the rank of Eagle Scout in 1988 and the following year attended the University of Michigan with the plans of being a "renaissance man." It was here that he began to make small collages using an approach of appropriation and re-contextualization that would serve as a basis for his creative process.
A post-graduate slacker/LSD experience in the newly split Czech Republic convinced Steven to follow a path through the arts, leading him to the Art Institute of Chicago to train as a painter, printmaker and graphic designer. It was here that he met and fell in love with his wife Liz (Department of Graphic Sciences), his life-long love and inspiration. Agnes Anderson joined the family in 2007.
Steven's career as an artist has been a cycle of collaborative and individual production, focusing on the nature of power and the power of nature. In 1998 he joined Cakewalk Magazine as co-publisher; designing, editing and raising money for issues 2-6. Steven has also been a driving force in 2004's October Surprise curatorial project in Northeast Los Angeles. Other fruitful collaborations have included Fat Farmer Bob and His Colourful Crazy Beard (2008-), Fuz Fon (1999-2001) and Chicago's Free the Real World Coalition (2001). Steven has art-directed and designed for In These Times (1998-2001) and WhiteWalls (1999-2003) magazines in Chicago, and the Center for the Study of Political Graphics (2003-04) and 1105 Media inc. (2003-current) in Los Angeles, among others.
The Andersons currently reside in Northeast Los Angeles with cats Big D. and Kittenhead Jenkins.

As more and more people join a public wave on Google Wave, adding their comments at different spots within the wave, it might become difficult to determine which comments or "blips" you have already read, and which you haven't.
Here's how. Unread blips have a bold, vertical left border, like this:
After you click on the blip or tap your space bar, the vertical border will disappear, like this:
And yes, Wave was built so that tapping the spacebar really is the easiiest way to surf through all the blips in a wave.
I've been waving now for almost a month. And just now, today, this morning, I learned how to TAG WAVES.
Open the wave you want to tag. Keep in mind that wave so created as a collaboration tool; so you don't need to be the person who created the wave, in order to add tags to the wave.
Look down at the bottom of the screen in the footer area. In the footer area of the wave column, you'll see a button labelled "Tag". Click the Tag button.
A small dialog box will open. Type in your tag keywords and hit enter
The keyword tags will show up the the wave column footer, and will be searchable in a wave tag search.
What is a wave tag search?
Type a search into the wave search box using this format:
with:public tag:real estate
No space between "with:" and "public"; no space between "tag:" and "real estate"; or whatever keyword you want to search on. Click the search icon at the right .
If you received a Google wave invitation, and just created your account, here's the first thing to do: Add some contacts!
Look down at the lower portion of the left panel, and you'll see the Contact Box. Click on the + sign, to the right of "Manage Contacts" to add a new contact.
You will need to ask your friends and family for their googlewave addresses, the same way you have to ask people for their email addresses when you first get acquainted.
Type in the person's googlewave address, and click Submit.
Now the person shows up in your Contact List.
Click on the person's photo or avatar to bring up a dialog box. Click on "Ping" to send the person a message.
Type something in the message box and click "Done."
The ping becomes a new wave that will show up in the center column when the person goes to Google Wave. The person will not get a separate email notice, so you need to count on your friends to check their waves daily, just like you count on them to check their email messages. You could send the person an email saying "Hey I waved at you, check your waves."
You can also keep the wave private, but add other participants. To add another participant, click the + button in the left column, above the wave content.
Your contact list will pop-up. Just click any name in the contact list that you want to include in the wave.
Do you ever have email conversations with groups of people? Maybe your team, office staff, and assistants? Or maybe you send emails to a group of family members, and everyone chats back and forth via group email.
If you think in terms of using Wave in those group email situations, you will have made the basic Wave Paradigm Shift.
Including random thoughts on life, art, business, stuff, and occasionally Real Estate.
What is a CAT BLOG?
According to Seth Godin: "Cat blogs are for, by, and about the person blogging. A cat blog is about your cat and your dating travails and your boss and whatever else you feel like sharing in your public diary."
Well, I am the boss, my dating years are behind me, but I do love my cats.
