At first glance, the couch-sized paintings of
cubist-style figures seem ominous. But look closer
and you’ll find a warmth and depth in these
mythical creatures. Artist Devon DeJardin titled his
work Guardians, and he views them as spiritual
custodians. DeJardin is a hot newcomer, and
his first solo exhibition is currently showing at the
former Taschen Gallery in Los Angeles.
