Kris likes to celebrate her birthday MONTH (January), but sometimes the DAY (Jan 10) can also be extra special. This is gonna be a good one. Our piece, “Hong Kong in Yellow” opens today at the Blue Line Gallery in Roseville, CA. The exhibit, Metropolis, focuses on cityscapes. “Hong Kong in Yellow” is really a peek into Deb’s brain. She took a photo of her favorite view of Hong Kong.
Well, Deb said, that’s not what Hong Kong looks like at all! Hong Kong is colorful: pink, yellow, orange, color, color, color! It’s noisy with lots of people and lots of smells (dim sum, anyone?). This photo just didn’t convey how lively the city really is. Maybe that’s why we love Photoshop so much. After some playing around – and a nod to Alice Neel and her signature blue outlines – Deb finally found her inner Hong Kong. We thought it fun to put the image in a traditional yet elongated attic window pattern.
We hope you can join us at the artist reception on January 19th. We can’t wait to see the other cityscapes.
