Hi,
Well last might me and my friend Grant went to visit the Gallery of the senses ion 14th and Pike street. This is the Alex Grey Art show and other artists had displays. They would not let me take any phoptos though. Two beautiful acidy looking paintings by Greys significant other were stunningly visual experiences. They were like psychedelic blotter sheets of acid.
There awas a large wall mu7ral from Costa Rica of human couples in Sexual positions similar to a temple I once asaw years ago in India.
Roman's art was plastered all over the walls, AS was Alex Greys and nu7merous other psychelic artists.
My favorate images were the graphic art of a Canadian artist named Luke Brown. I am in the proicess of buying maybe one or two of thois mans works. They were arwesome fractals, unlike any I had ever done.
Xiva had some beautiful art and I was captiovated by the theme and quality of visuals on the walls of this cool gallery. Anyone here at the site who lives in Seattle should check this place out.
They informed me the art show will be there until June.
It is on Pike street above an artificial limb shop on 14th and Pike. Up stairs and is open each evening from 6 oclock till 11 p.m.
Across the stree on 14th inthe middle of the block is the Metaphysical Library of Seattle. They too have an art show going on with some trippy Budha and psychedelic paintings also.
Anyway, IT is a cool friggin show and should not be overlooked byu those into trippy art.

At first, I thought Allyson Grey's art was done on a computer from the pictures that I had seen in some books. However,when I saw them in front of me they were amazing. And they do look like sheets of blotter art. There was one series (?) that I saw at their studio that consists of several rows of small paintings that all go together, even the frames are colored so that the colors flow into one another between each small piece. I don't see it pictured on her website though. Looked something like this:
X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X
Each X was a small painting. Very impressive. I also wanna try and make it to Baltimore to see the High on Life:Transcending Addiction exhibit. That will be one of my summer trips. Also, in case anyone wants to know, the Greyhound special for traveling with a friend only works until the end of June sometime. Keep that in mind if that was in anyones plans...
