December 1st, 6:00-9:00pm: Rey Bustos: Paths and Passions: One man show for Contemporary artist Rey Bustos. Rey has developed a large and loyal fan base for his intimate, charming and surreal paintings incorporating photographs of urban landmarks in �dreamscapes� that often include buffalo, a strolling woman with a parasol, or cattle grazing. At this show collectors will see another side of Rey Bustos. Rey is a well respected professor of anatomy at the Art Center College of Design and instructor to Disney animators and students. His mastery of the mechanics of the human body is the platform from which he creates beautiful, fluid, gestural life drawings that fuse Peter Paul Ruben�s, muscular boldness and grace with a confidence, verve and style that bring to mind improvisational jazz. Rey will be drawing from a live figure model at the show and discussing his thoughts on art and the body. A �drawing� will be held and one lucky guest will take home a framed personalized Rey Bustos drawing created that night. The reception will include live jazz, champagne and refreshments. In the Christmas spirit, everything in the exhibition will be priced at $1,000 and below. Cocktail attire, RSVP to 626-441-9007
