Celebrate Nazarena’s birthday and the work of Teresa Moore, one of SF’s most beloved artists.

Feel the pulse of the local art scene while sipping cocktails, mingling with art enthusiasts, and previewing paintings by Teresa Moore. Moore's works conjures images from bawdy brothels decked in sumptuous red velvet to whisky-soaked cabarets brimming with lusty jazz strains.

Self-taught and painting mainly with her fingers, Moore creates an atmosphere of nightlife, good times and fleeting romances. Her images bring to life a world at once sensuous, sophisticated, sometimes sweet yet always alluring.

Femmes fatales smolder with long-fingered hands dangling cigarettes and cocktails to their lush lacquered lips. Glamorous and vulnerable, they contemplate a noir netherworld somewhere between dusk and twilight.

And these decadent dames get around. Moore’s work is exhibited and collected from New York, Miami, and Chicago to Seattle, New Orleans, Canada, France and Italy. Moore’s fiery independence shows through in these characters, who all seem to have their own checkered pasts, drawn from deep within the artist’s own fantasies and realities, past and present.

Nazarena, much like Moore’s paintings, is known as sophisticated, sweet and alluring so it only seems fitting that these glamorous gals would team up to celebrate Nazarena’s birthday. Please join us for drinks, dancing, art and of course cake as we wish one half of My Heart Beats... a very special happy birthday!
