It has been brought to my attention that the Sex Workers’ Art Show might not provide a family-friendly cultural experience. Luckily, there is another option. The Alcove Gallery is opening a group show on Friday night. The opening features one of my favorites, Mr. Hooper, who is responsible for the Johnny Cash image below. The evening features live music by Folsom Prison Paul, who I’ve never heard, but I expect to be outstanding by name alone.

Now I know we are soulmates (in a cultural, arty way)…
My wife and I have three Mr. Hooper paintings, back from before he started painting pop culture figures and was doing these dreamy cityscapes. The musicians are amazing, too (we have his painting of Patsy Cline, too).

Nice. I only own one Mr. Hooper - “Shriner with Laser Eyes.” I foresee adding to that collection tonight.
