Just In Time

In his anticipated show at Longnecker Gallery, ‘Time Machine: Through the Walls of a Time Traveler,’ which runs through Nov. 22, painter Justin Garcia’s famous abstracts morph into something surprisingly literal: weathered walls and doors rich with the patina of age. The message seems to be that beauty is timeless, and that unique moments of self-expression are the signs of distinct character. Kind of like a man in a classic suit, reinterpreted to reflect his personal style.

As Escape Spa Expands in 2025, Owner Has Advice on Personal Growth: ‘Focus on Intention Setting’

ON JAN. 3, 2025, I observed a big personal anniversary. As of that day, it’d had been 20 years since I first moved to Houston — from the Big Apple media circus, by way of my home state of Louisiana — and began working as an editor in the lifestyle-magazine biz here.
