Artists R H Phister and Gomez founded Dark’s Art Parlour in 1994. Originally intended as a studio space to showcase their own work, it soon grew into a full fledged art gallery. Although the gallery was closed after three years, Dark’s still remains as a publisher of fine art books. These samples are taken from Phister’s first portfolio collection; these large scale graphite drawings are made on cotton, which are then mounted, stuffed, and sewn, giving them a three dimensional quality. Her work has been shown extensively in Southern California and has been featured in the major motion picture Kiss the Girls starring Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd and the soon-to-be released Your Friends and Neighbors starring Nastasia Kinski and Jason Patrick.
