You know you wanna bid on one....

All the decks from last weekends show are still up for auction. Put your money where your mouth is HERE. Proceeds benefit the awesome Stay True organization located out in Philadephia.








And yep, the pink elephant belongs to me. I've been experimenting with encaustic methods over the past few months as a means to keep my artistic ADD at bay. Nothing keeps me more focused than attempting to conquer something new. Believe it or not, painting with wax lends itself well to my limited (read: NON-EXISTENT) studio space and time constraints. I can stop or start painting at the turn of a griddle knob! And get this, I can just leave my brushes in the wax! AMAZING!!

Philly. Here. I. Come.

Good cause. Good wood. Good gawd. They've done it again.
You can find me, and my board, in Philly.

I got a sneak peek at some of the other decks when i was dropping mine off....socksknockoffable.

Oh Carson Daly...I Hate YOU.

Oft' times up still up at say, three, four, five in the morning. Oft' times, since cable is outrageously expensive, I watch random (not quite broadcast anymore) television. EVERY TIME. EVERY TIME. EVERY TIME. I have flipped on Last Call with Carson Daly he has managed to show some random, obscure band/artist that I have adored prior to his 'discovery'. Then BOOM. They're everywhere. His latest victim...Ida Maria. I ADORE this girl.

Biting the Bullet...

Once upon a time i swore i wouldn't do this...

But I've started doing graphic design and marketing work for the bar i work at. When you see the new event coordinator trying to create flyers out of Microsoft Word you gotta step in. You just gotta. I don't want to be embarrassed to work there, right?

Thank you Katie and Ileana for lending your faces to a good cause.

MICROSOFT WORD!!!! Really now? What is this 1990?

AB09!

As per usual, the art battle was epic. The masses came, they saw, we created. Big kudos to my boy Davis and his buddy Vince for keeping it going.

Much love my fellow battlers!








'Til next time kids....keep livin the dream!

The only place where a paintbrush is a weapon.
