A CONVERSATION WITH DAVE "PERX" PARKS
|
New River Valley artist Dave Parks -- who uses the name Perx among
friends and in the art world -- sports a mustache that would delight

reveal something of the process of their creation, exuding an
edginess and the heft of an Oldsmobile. With a rare exhibit on
display at Art Pannonia in Blacksburg, Perx sat down to offer a few
insights into drip painting, razor blades, spatulas and other
favorite implements.
