I don’t currently have internet access at home so I haven’t been updating much. My bad. I’m participating in a few holiday shows and whatnot so here’s the low-down:

Cactus Gallery’s 4th Annual Tiny Treasures show is going on right now. It’s the perfect place to holiday shop for affordable original art.

This Friday (12/18) The Hear Gallery & Automatico are having their HOLIDAY HEROES food and toy drive at Senor Fish in Little Tokyo. I don’t know which other artists are participating, but I expect to see a lot of good stuff there. I’m updating from work and Facebook so blocked so I can’t get to a flyer, but I’ll post a flyer ASAP!

The event that I’m most excited about is the NYE shin dig that Hear Gallery, Automatico and Blow Up LA are putting together.

Peep this shit:

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’m going to be doing something incredibly fun on Saturday night…and early Sunday morning. I’ll be showing some new pieces at this amazing event, but I’d be there even if I didn’t have some stuff up on the wall. Seriously. That’s how rad these Hear Gallery and Hang The DJs co-productions are.

The Hear Gallery is putting on another event this Saturday which means I’ll be participating in 3 art shows on Saturday instead of 2.

The Hear Gallery and Hang The DJ’s have another event in the works and I’m stoked about participating. I’m glad the Hear Gallery crew keeps asking me to be involved in the crazy shit that they put together because I was going to their events before I ever started painting.

The art portion of the event will be a robot art show. I don’t have any new robot pieces so I have a lot of work to do this weekend. Yikes!

It should be a fun night.

The Masquerade Ball was crazy! The Hear Gallery crew always puts on great events. Speaking of The Hear Gallery and their great events, I’m going to be involved in something else that they’re putting together. Peep the info below.

I had an amazing time at The Hear Gallery‘s last event which is why I was extremely happy to be added to the next one that they’re putting together. I’m sure this will be even crazier than Lovers and Strangers.

If you haven’t attended something that these fine people have put together, then do yourself a favor and make sure you head out to this one. It’s gonna be ILL! There’s also a good chance that I’ll finally have some new pieces for the show…maybe.

I used to not care about Valentines Day. Years of stressing out over what to do or what to buy when I’ve been in relationships or being bummed out about being single had made me want to treat 2/14 like any other day, until now. Earlier today I was informed that I will be participating in a rad event that the Hear Gallery is putting together for Valentines Day. I’m stoked!
