Slick, who left music a decade ago, firmly believes that rock performers who get up on stage after age 60 "look dorky."

The exhibit at Galerie Vendome, a departure from the gallery's more traditional art showings, illustrates the fact that Slick may have left music but has not stopped expressing her strong, personal opinions; she has just found another venue.

Indeed, her life has turned out a little more like Alice's. "Going from the 50s to the 60s growing up was like Alice going down the rabbit hole," Slick said.

"There is no Prince Charming to rescue you-you only have yourself … you take yourself with you.

"The white rabbit is a symbol of curiosity … of discovery," Galerie Vendome associate Dana Yarger said. "Great art comes from people who have honest opinions."

There is no doubt in circulating the art-lined walls that Slick's work is honest, personal, and, like Slick, at all times passionate.

One of the most collectible of the pieces is a self-portrait, "1965," that shows rabbit "Grace" seated at the piano composing and playing her famous song/composition for the Jefferson Airplane, "White Rabbit."

The work is an interesting and colorful mixed medium of acrylic and scratchboard.
Slick's first artwork, a scratchboard of a raccoon (she admits she once owned about 40 live raccoons) that the rock icon created with a safety pin, is for sale at the gallery as well.

Slick, who was self-taught as a musician and now as an artist, recalls finding her expression in the art world after a painful relationship breakup.

"I started drawing animals because they make me happy," she said. Grace's furry friends only lined the walls of her home until one day her book agent suggested she turn her passion into a career.

Slick added portraits of rock legends to her portfolio and incorporated some of these images into her book, "Somebody to Love."

Galerie Vendome owners Bob and Joan Zane are premiering Slick's newest art collection in this special showing, The Icon Series.

Slick not only takes us down the rabbit hole with her in-your-face pop art wonderland series, she also demonstrates her loving interpretation of friends who, Yarger says, "just happen to be famous music legends," including Jerry Garcia, Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon and Miles Davis. "Garcia Black & White" is one of Slick's favorites. She explains, "(He had) an open and generous spirit-a wise man in chaos." In contrast, there are several nude line drawings that have been compared to the masterful simplicity reminiscent of a Matisse or Picasso.

Although some of Slick's works sell for as much as $20,000, the collection ranges from prints that begin at $500. Observing the art show guests "falling down Slick's rabbit hole" of '60s nostalgia, Galerie Vendome's Yarger pointed out, "People are here to buy back their own memories."
