This show is based on my impression as a long-time-regular client at the Phoenix Bar, in the Faubourg Marigny in New Orleans. The Phoenix is the best gay\/cruising bar (in my opinion) in the city as well as home-bar of The Mystic Krewe of the Lords of Leather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These small paintings are all 16 by 20 inches acrylic on canvas, painted mostly with spatula. They are signed with my street name: gam\u00edn\u00ae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
