“A Delivery To Your Senses” at UTSA Satellite Space launched a strong show last night with works by Nikki Anderson and Paul Northway. If you brave the heat and the crowds at tonight’s First Friday, make sure to stop by to check it out. Above, one of a handful of Anderson’s constructed scenes, shot in Iceland. Garden trolls from space?
More curious forms by Anderson, seen here in the gallery.

At Joan Grona Gallery works on paper by Eduardo Daniel Rodriguez attracted much attention. Drawings in paint, these are studies that feel guileless, lacking in pretension. Good choice for an August show–it’s too hot for bullshit.

Studio 106B presents works by Rene Rodriguez. Fave of the show is above, a nice confab of expressive brushwork, design and a good drawing hand. Follow this young artist; there is some promise here.
