Ghosts Orbs at the Coral Casino, Santa Barbara December 4, 2011

Built in 1926-27 by Reginald Johnson, the Coral Casino (part of Ty Warner's Four Season's Biltmore) has played host to many a celebrity and guest. Friday night I strolled alone the empty corridors and cabanas clicking away with my camera. Not a creature stirred.  

However, the Art Deco Era Architecture played host to the sound of my echoing footsteps and my clicking camera catching big blue bouncing Orbs hovering away like globules in a 1960's  Lava Lamp!
 

Van Stein Smaller Images Exhibition Opening: December 2, 2011

The Opening at James Main Fine Arts, was packed. I even made a couple of sales! I am exhibiting 27 paintings, all on the smaller side in size.

It's a great feeling to be exhibiting on the same walls as famous "Dead Artists" such as Collin Campbell Cooper,  Douglas Parshall,  and Ed Borin.

The show will be up til January 9, 2012
