JENNIFER DAVIS IS EVERYWHERE.

There are a couple of art shows that we're involved in this weekend that we figured you should know about. Jennifer Davis is also somehow, amazingly, miraculously, unbeknownst to us until recently, also in both of these exhibitions.
Roger Roger, 12x12inch mixed media, 2011.
The first is FRESH PRODUCE at Anno Domini in San Jose, California. There's over 45 artists from 14 different countries in this show, and 3 of us are from Minnesota. Broken Crow and Jennifer Davis. We've been huge fans of Jennifer's work for almost 2 decades combined (is that even possible?) and we're always excited to show alongside her. We made 5 pieces for this show, and we hope that you'll go and see them. Jennifer probably made 20, and we're sure that they're all brilliant. This is AD's 11th year of doing a holiday show of this magnitude, and we're excited to be a part of it. Here's the full lineup and gallery info:

We've selected White Cocoa (in progress above) and Ben LaFond for our section of wall-space, and we're hoping you'll join us at the opening. You can find out how Jennifer Davis ended up in this show here. From XYandZ about TWO:
