LEE (US), Chad Hasegawa (US), Pam Glew (UK), FAKE (NL), Alice Pasquini (IT), Ben Slow (UK), Jason Brammer (US), Xenz (UK), My Dog Sighs (UK), Greg Gossel (US), Greve (US), Jack Chappel (Nice One) (US), Ermsy (FR), James Starr (UK), Inkie (UK), Stinkfish (CO), Lie (US), Chris Cunningham (UK), Brad Novak (NZ), David Soukup (US), Niels Shoe Meulman (NL), The Thomas Brothers (UK), Toasters (UK), Mr. Cenz (UK), ASVP (US), Max Kauffman (US), Pizza in the Rain (US).

My two works for the show: "Ode to Stik No. 1" (top photo) and "Ode to Oakoak No. 1" (bottom photo).  I was excited to create the Odes to Stik and Oakoak because they are two of my favorite contemporary street artists. And I feel the simplicity and whimsy of their work creates a beautiful foil to the ornate and opulent frames. I was very happy with the way the paintings were received and both sold to different collectors before the show ended in February. A very successful show I was proud to be a part of.
