A very excellent restaurant in Las Vegas called Brazil Brazil is displaying my artwork, and I’m very excited. They asked to show a few of my classic pieces, and I’ve done a whole new line of Brazilian-themed work for them. All in all I have about 20 pieces on display in the restaurant, and prints for most of them are being sold right out of the restaurant. I’m trying a new method for printing, so it should be really good. Brazil Brazil is a great place on it’s own, too. The food is wonderful and presented in a three course meal with a live Brazilian styled show. The performers are a lot like the showgirls I paint, but the culture is different. It’s still about bright colors and a bit of flashiness, but where showgirls are almost exclusive to Las Vegas, Brazilian dancers are strongly tied to carnivals and festivals. The food is brought to you, and includes things like shaved meats, as very wide variety of side dishes and tasty deserts. I especially love their plankton dish! You can expect wonderful entertainment, good service and a long, satisfying meal. Brazil Brazil is a new place, but really worth supporting. I can’t see how much they expand and grow!

The head chef at Brazil Brazil is the same as another of my favorite places to eat, Bernard’s Bistro out by Lake Las Vegas. My art is up there as well, including a four foot by five foot piece I did just for the restaurant and many of my classic folie bergere pieces. Bernard’s Bistro is another place where you can expect amazing food and wonderful service, as well as live entertainment. One of my good friends, Lenae Huff, plays live piano there every Wednesday and Thursday night from 8pm to 11pm, and occasionally has guest singers. It’s really worth the trip!
