Gazette staff
London artist Boo Ritson is so fascinated with American culture — Here Comes Honey Boo Boo notwithstanding, we assume — that she’s turned it into an exhibition.

Gazette staff
Who is Jamie Pettis, you ask? She’s an artist new to OKC, so naturally, her first solo exhibit in town is titled I Am. Containing 14 Prismacolor pencil portraits, the show can be seen from 7 to 11 p.m. Friday at Velvet Monkey Salon, 1701 N.W. 16th, during the Plaza District’s Live on the Plaza, and will remain on display for the rest of the month. Call 528-1106 or visit velvetmonkeysalon.com.
