After seeing Robin Held’s show “Spectatorship & Desire: Lust, Loss, and Love” at the Frye Art Museum, hung cheek-to-jowl “salon style”, the Paint-by Numbers retrospective at the Smithsonion Institution and the current Paint-by Number show at the Corey Helford Gallery in L.A., artist JoDavid was inspired to create his own “Paint-by-Number Salon” in his home in Seattle.
