Weekend in review

Friday:
After work I made the hike from to Sunset Junction in Silver Lake to see Gerard Way (he of My Chemical Romance fame) have a meet/greet/drink at Secret Headquarters. The store had some of his and Gabriel Ba's Umbrella Academy artwork on display. The new issue comes out tomorrow. Don't sleep. I talked to him for a minute and got an autograph.

Since I was on the east-siiide, I decided to hit up the Scoops/Orange 20 combo. O20 was closed but some Mint Oreo consoled me.

Saturday:
CRANK MOB








and cinco de mayo's nachos

Sunday:
Because I got paid on Friday, a good-ol' Amoeba run was in order.
Pickups:
- Girl Talk, Feed the Animals
- Cadence Weapon, Breaking Kayfabe and Afterparty Babies
- The Anniversary, Devil on our side

A good weekend was had by all...THE END

Tis the Season!

The holiday season has officially arrived! Whist at various shopping malls over the weekend, I noticed fake Christmas trees erected in center plazas, workers with "visitor" stickers at Target stocking the aisles with unwanted Planters peanuts gift sets and those blue Danish cookie tins (don't get me wrong, I love those cookies- especially the pretzel shaped ones covered with sugar). As I write this masterpiece, I am actually listening to a holiday station I found on itunes, cuz I can't wait for Kost 103.5 to start playing their non-stop holiday jams beginning Thanksgiving afternoon.

Nevermind that Christmas is next month and that silly Californians voted for prop 8, let's talk about art. Specifically, The Itty Bitty Art Show at Monkeyhouse. A couple friends and I submitted some oh so tiny art work which we hope YOU will buy! I would have taken more pics, but I spent most of my time outside cuz it was uber crowded. You can take a gander at the show until november 30th.


I did a set of 4 paintings titled "The Grub Chronicles."


My friend did 9 paintings of awesomely cute robots.


More pics of art done by friends!


Yay for Animals in Masquerade!

My friend and I made itty bitty limited edition buttons that we passed out during the show!



Here are some scary ass pics of the weather right now. This doesn't look like cheery holiday weather!

Overdue C.R.A.N.K. MOB post

Crank mob (aka west side mobile partay) went down last month on the 18th. Here come da pics:

This is Sawtelle/La Grange. The above is Sawtelle/La Grange on Crank Mob. Any questions?

The boys are back in town (sans Chris). This crank mob was eventful for a number of reasons: Oro's birthday, Jerrald's new DIY paint job and rear wheel, and the debut of STORMWOLF (and the lightning bolt crashes)


From the starting point, we headed straight to the heart of Westwood. The damn incline on Westwood blvd. slowed me, and the wolf was lost from the pack. I caught up to them at some park across from the Fox Building.





From there, we ended up at the Ralph's on Sawtelle and National.

Even MJ made an appearance. JAMONAH!

Crank Mob Park in Culver City was the final stop.

The Windsor Bros. The blue one is named Hank McCoy.


No crank mob is complete without a trip to Cinco's
