Phyllis Green @OtisCollege (****) At her best when she’s the most quirky yet poignant–flocking, fabric, finish, feminine & fun. #artLA

Rebecca Campbell @LALOUVER (***) Lovin’ potent, loose brushwork in mushroom clouds & beautiful women. Rainbows & fireworks-not so much. #artLA

Terry Allen @LALOUVER (***) Better as radio play. Words inspire imagination. Dramatization of installations/video maudlin & overblown. #artLA

3 Abstract Painters @ Frank Lloyd (****) Why’d they think McLaughlin would bridge the mocha/muddy Haywards & the impeccable Heywoods? #artLA

3 Abstract Painters @ Frank Lloyd: They would have been great together without it. Perhaps they’re just context for a secondary market sale.

Yuken Teruya @Shoshana_Wayne (**) Admire fastidiousness of stencils, but only piece that really works is hanging banner/kite thing. #artLA

April Street @ Rosamund Felsen (**) Klimtesque patterns on Frankenthalerish color field stains=dated ‘70s pastiche. Laughable titles. #artLA

Jimi Gleason @ Samuel Freeman (***) Oooh, Jimi’s gone textural. The simple ones work, while the gloppy, craggy ones just look gaudy. #artLA

Analia Saban @ Thomas Solomon (***) Interesting experiments cunningly reveal process but the grimy grays take all the joy out of it. #artLA

Chris Doyle @ Sam Lee (****) Hand-drawn animation lends itself 2 the haunting melancholy of the nature/money/consumption/waste cycle. #artLA

Suzan Woodruff @ William Turner (***) I’m torn. I can’t decide if paintings are fascinating process art or safe corporate/couch art? #artLA

Mariangeles Soto-Diaz @RuthBachofner (****) Sterling tension–frenetic diagonals tempered by cool, calm greens and whites. #artLA
