Paul Solis Studio Visit

THE HIDDEN DOOR IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK
So Paul Solis was gracious enough to let me come by his studio to shoot some photos and check out his work.  Very strong work.  Thanks dude! (The first three should actually be oriented horizontal, technical difficulties, sorry Paul!)
Study, work in progress.

Then Paul took me upstairs to the archives.  Chris Johanson print! Woo!
These were large screenprints from his BFA show a while back.

These were watercolors and ink I believe.

Paul Solis rocks! I have seen his work at Oakland College of Art show(s) and galleries. I was blown away each time. He's prolific, which is always fun and his orint work is so refined, it's crazy. How does he do it? I have a few of his pieces in my house and I can't get over how great it is to look at this wildness and this commentary and even the splashes of humor in the darkness day after day. Thanks for showcasing him.
