EXHIBITIONS: Eric Park recently exhibited at Haight-Ashbury Library's "40 Summers of Love 'n Haight" Art Exhibit. Eric's painting, "Patriotic Toothbrushes" was displayed there, and has since been sold. He has also recently sold 2 other paintings:  Mlle Gachet (the Van Gogh tribute/nude at the piano) and "Tofu in LA" (portrait of Tiffany). This leaves him with only 4 or 5 unsold pieces.

Photos added below! Eric recently finished a landscape painting that has been in the works for some months. "Last Days of the One Lane Bridge" is a view of the old bridge with a background of forests and mountains. The bridge, near Hayfork High School in Trinity County, has since been replaced with a modern 2 lane bridge. The painting is a companion to his twice-published poem of the same name (published in Peoples Press, a monthly from near Redding, and in his book, "The Sad Songs Contest," now about to go into its 4th Edition). The new painting is now accompanied by a framed parchment copy of the poem of the same name and a photo of the original One Lane Bridge. Size is 11" x 16", plus a fancy frame, bringing it to 19" x 24". Eric also recently completed the fourth in his nature series, "River Otter". Painting is 16" x 20" plus a fancy frame which brings it to 24" x 28".
