I just dropped off these three paintings at Carter Sexton Artist's Materials for their July show "Vintage".
I started going to Carter Sexton in 1966, riding my bike before I was old enough to drive. It's a great little iconic Valley Village shop that has been there since 1944.
If you're in the vicinity of North Hollywood, the show will be up from July 13 to July 27, with an opening reception on the 13th from 5-7 pm. I'd love to see you there.

It's still a bit chilly, but the sun is out and it feels good. This is the view out the back door of my studio. The greenery in the background is the Angeles National Forest.

I haven't painted in about 5 months. My studio was in really bad shape, with the roof falling in and the walls all moldy. So me and the boys demolished it and replaced it with these 2 little buildings, one for a studio and one for a gallery and storage. There's still a lot of work to do, like a roof over the breezeway between them and walls in the gallery, but the electrical is all done and there's insulation/drywall/paint in the studio. I couldn't have gotten this far without the support and hard work of my sons Travis Cooper and Cody James Cooper, and my wonderful wife Denna Lee Brill-Cooper.
