Behind the Scenes at Art Project Los Angeles

We attended the third annual Art Project los Angeles Auction event this weekend at Bonham's. The event raised $180,000 for AIDS Project Los Angeles www.apla.org . It's a wonderful cause & we attend every year. Beautiful pieces from Picasso, Warhol, Keith Haring, Julian Schnabel & others were auctioned live to the well dressed crowd.
Richard Grieco's 'Mr. Emptiness' was one of the top sellers. Richard's a great guy & you can see more of his work on his website: www.griecoart.com . Some of the other celebrities present were Kathy Griffin, Alfred Molina (who was the high bidder for Lawrence Schiller's Marilyn Monroe photograph) & John Savage.
My beautiful dress is by friend, designer Meghan fabulous. The neckline is made out of hand sewn broken mirror pieces. Very cool! www.meghanshop.com .
My vintage Champagne Cocktail ring was made by my friend Joan at Pop Culture Princess. www.pop-culture-princess.com
