So, I was contacted by owners of Rock and Brews and asked if I would be interested in having my work in their restaurant... I was pleasantly surprised the owners that approached me were Mike Zislis, LA restauranteur and boutique hotel owner, Dave Furano, Rock promoter legend, co-founder of Winterland Productions and Sony Signatures with his brother Dell, also he was President of Bill Graham Presents for most of the 70's. Last but by no means least the other partner, Mr Family Jewels himself, Gene Simmons.
Now I'm listening!!
As the project came to life, four of my paintings made it to the Wall of Rock. Mine were the only artist renditions.. the rest being photos. This for me was very flattering that they only chose to use my work. This was especially true in the case of Genes image.. out of all the images he could have used, he chose my painting of him! Wow, that for me is quite the endorsement!
The other images chosen for now are Elvis, Cobain and Hendrix.
My Manager, David Brian and myself were invited to the Grand opening on April 3rd 2012 which was a blast!! I got to chat with Gene again and connect with all the rest of the Rock and Brews Team.
Many thanks to them all for making us feel welcome! The food and drink there is absolutely mouthwatering.. if you check it out, get the Backstage Burger or any of the Pizzas... If you love Beer.. look no further with 100 craft brewed beers available!
