Owen Smith Holiday Speakeasy at Hint Mint House

I'll be in Venice CA on December 18, 2009 for an artist signing. Last year I did a series of holiday tins for Hint Mint. I'll be at their store at 1650 Abbott Kinney Blvd. from 7-10PM. They will have the limited edition tins and some 12" x12" "Tinplate Prints".

The New Yorker this week

Owen has an illustration in this week's The NewYorker about Frank Gilbreth (an "efficiency" pioneer) and his wife Lillian.

Blab!

Monte Beauchamp, creator and editor of Blab!, asked Owen to participate in the annual show at Copro Gallery in Santa Monica. The theme of the book and show was the end of the world, the apocalypse, the end-of-times, the rapture.

Laguna Honda Hospital Progress

Owen's been working on some art for the Laguna Honda Hospital in San Francisco for the past few years. There will be a series of mosaics and a series of relief sculptures. Finally all of the art he's created is being fabricated. Mosaika, a fabulous mosaic studio out of Montreal is fabricating the art. Check out the progress!

I'm busy at work on a number of projects. So crazy busy, in fact, that I'm going to have my wife keep you all updated on them. We'll have pictures to show you the progress plus images of other projects I've completed in the last few years.
