Take a tour around the Los Angeles area with three accomplished artists as they provide their unique views of seven locations in and around Malibu, Los Angeles and Topanga. Each artist brings a unique perspective told through his own eyes, media and technique. Don Holtz's entrancing photography evokes a mystical quality of the location. Moises Mendoza unique mix of graphic shapes and collage is bold and draws the eye from across the room. My representational oil landscape paintings bring a little something new this show and include some nocturnes and contemporary view of the common scene.  Most gallery shows give you one artist’s view of a scene or idea; “Perspectivas” breaks the mold and offers three different perspectives of the same location.

 The Village Green is a beautiful park in the center of Pacific Palisades. Located on the site of the original park founded in 1923 it was later leased to Standard Oil for a gas station. The community dreamed of the recreating the Village Green Park and in August 1973 the privately funded park was created as a place of beauty to be enjoyed from within and admired from a distance. The tree-lined park features a fountain, benches and lawn area. Surrounded by local restaurants and businesses it’s the center of activity for the Palisades.
