Campy Crush + Kali Meadows art opening event

It was fun times at Leanna Lin's Wonderland on March 9th for two art openings!

Kali Meadows created a fun + graphic art corner gallery.

"Bite Your Thumb" is based off of graphics, typography & cute animals - What a great combo! 

She's printed her creations on wood panels and has a selection of prints too.

I also invited blogger Amy Osbourne of Campy Crush to help curate a group of artists 

with a fashion flair ... and that we got from 8 talented artists for "Banana Split Ladies"!

* ABOUT KALI *

Kali Meadows is an illustrator born and raised in Northern Michigan, 

now residing in sunny Los Angeles. She loves to draw and create daily 

with her loving corgi Zoey by her side. Much of her inspiration comes 

from a mix of mid-century to the modern day vector scene. 

She can be seen around town flea market shopping, hiking the hills of LA, 

and catching up on some improv comedy.

* SHOW INSPIRATION *

Centered around one of my favorite pieces "Bow Wow": featuring a dog in a headdress, 

I wanted to create a collection of pieces based on animals and the native culture. 

I had a lot of fun incorporating these elements and working in some cool typography

and patterns. The overall goal was to make each piece uplifting in hopes to 

spread a little joy into other's lives.

For more information, check out her fun website!

* ABOUT CAMPY CRUSH *

Campy Crush is a Los Angeles based blog for people who love campy artsy things. 
New articles are posted daily that showcase "crush worthy" 
people and places in Southern California and occasionally elsewhere.
 Campy Crush was founded by Amy Osborne in 2012 as a way to 
share her favorite things and connect with like minded people. 
Her and her contributors are obsessed with pop culture, art, crafts, fashion, film, 
and discovering new places. The commentary is always humorous 
and subject matter is light and fun.

* SHOW INSPIRATION *

The title and theme of the art exhibition "Banana Split Ladies" 
is based on lyrics from the Siouxie and The Banshees song "Christine". 
"Christine" is about a woman who suffers from dissociative identity disorder. 
The lyrics in the song create a story of multiple women with different styles 
and of course personalities: there is the Strawberry Girl, 
the Turtle Women and the Banana Split Lady. 

For more information, check out her fun website!
