The show was a huge success with almost twenty of the original pieces presented in the show selling.

Carlos was so successful in using light to alter the perception of things as simple as a lamp.  He took an image in Europe of a curvaceous lamp and brought to life the architectural elements of the piece.  Upon first glance, you felt that you were looking at a vibrant red circular building, like the Capital Records building, but upon closer inspection, you begin to question what it truly is.

On November 17th, PDC hosted a multi-gallery art exhibition. There were a number of really dynamic shows & it quickly reminds you that the art scene in LA continues to thrive, despite the harsh economic realities we face. As you moved up into the second floor of the blue building, you became immersed in a visual storm of color. Mixed media, photography, sculpture and even traditional expressions of art on canvas seemed to be everywhere you looked.

On a whole other evening, I was invited to preview Carlos and his photo exhibit in West Hollywood.
