Fabulist!

Sage Vaughn has a show running at Corey Helford Gallery through August 5th. He paints, among other things, birds indigenous to Los Angeles against a backdrop of razorwire and abandoned buildings. One of my favorites is a spray of violently colored butterflies backed by faded brick buildings, entitled Gang Warfare. You can see his current paintings up at the gallery's site. (Click on exhibitions, then Sage Vaughn.)

Update: Photos of the opening, with more detailed pics of paintings, over at Juxtapoz.
