avenue 50 studio: Art Opening at the Avenue 50 Studio - 09/04/09 06:19 AM
Avenue 50 Studio is proud to present the paintings and drawings of San Antonio artist Alex Rubio. Rubio's work speaks of the Latino experience in a fiery fantastical world. His palate of brilliant hues, and use of high contrast -- reflective of the San Antonio sun -- explodes onto the canvas in swirling and undulating waves, as if each stroke transmits energy vibrating around and within the body.

Alex Rubio is one of Cheech Marin's collected artists in the Chicano Visions: American Painters on

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.
