Paul- It's on my "list" to go down to Monterey to see your work very soon!
I was in NY at the beginning of December and saw the amazing de Kooning retrospective at MOMA. I went in thinking he was not one of my favorites and came out a believer.
Here's a link to MOMA's media presentation of the show:http://www.moma.org/interactives/exhibitions/2011/dekooning/

Today we went to see the exhibit
"The Cult of Beauty", about the aesthetic movement, at the Legion of Honor in San Francisco.
It's a well done exhibit of painting, furniture, other objects of utility like fireplace screens, clothing and tea pots, etc. While the style is not something I personally want in my minimalist modern space, they are quite beautiful.
In particular, I admired the James Whistler paintings. When I look at his work in person it seems to me that he was ahead of his time, and setting the stage for the greater freedom in brushwork, mood etc that followed him. Maybe someone who knows more about art history than I can comment.

Stahlbro, the mosaics are beautifu,l but the market has got to be limited to wealthy people with big houses who love to surf! Can there possibly be enough of that category for the artist to make a living off them? Phyl

Phyl,
She does all kinds of really interesting glass work besides the surfboards. This is kind of an experiment because she enjoyed the concept. She has a show going on in Carlsbad right now. My girlfriend helped her set up and open the show.
It will be interesting see how it is recieved. Debbie and I are headed down next week to see how it is going. I agree it is probably a small target list, by they are really well done and a surfer looking for an art piece for the house might get stoked ;-)

We went to SFMOMA today to see two current exhibits. I highly recommend both of them.
One is the artist Mark Bradford, who does the most gorgeous intricate textured collages/paintings:
This is a new artist for me, and I'm thrilled that SFMOMA introduced me to his amazing work.
The other exhibit is RINEKE DIJKSTRA A Retrospective
Large scale color photographs and several videos
