Little Pink Houses is a collaboration between two very talented San Francisco artists and friends, Mati McDonough and Lisa Congdon. They conceived of the show by discovering their mutual love for John Cougar Mellencamp’s famous melody. Little Pink Houses is an homage to many of the pair’s mutual loves, including the color pink and all things of the forest. The installation includes eight 8×8 paintings (four by each artist), eight hand painted birdhouses (four by each artist) and two collaborative paintings. Fabric designed by each of the artists is also on display.

Already on display at San Francisco’s Curiosity Shoppe, the Little Pink Houses show opens this Friday, July 10th, from 6-10, with both artists in attendance for the opening, and the work will be up in the gallery until July 31st. If you aren’t in the bay area and can’t make this wonderful show, all artwork is also for sale online at The Curiosity Shoppe.

    I love all those banners, the picture one is my favorite. I make them all the time but never hang them. This gives me some ideas.
