"Blindsided"/Aida Gamez.

Aida Gamez's delicate, meticulously rendered drawings of stuffed animals, worn out with love or falling apart from lack of care, manage to be poignant without being sentimental. They are up through March 1 with a series of new paintings by Linda Geary that blend abstraction and illusionsim at b. sakata garo,923 20th St. (916) 447-4276. www.bsakatagaro.com.
