Artist Laddie Dill graciously opened up his Venice studio Thursday night for the annual Venice Art Walk ’08 Happening. Laddie’s work is strongly geometric and plays with the interaction of earth and man-made materials. Don’t fret if you missed the pre-party, Dill’s artwork can be seen this Sunday, May 18, at the Venice Art Walk.
