Birthday lunch with B.

It's B's birthday today! So her parents took her to Ortega 120 in Redondo Beach, the Chef was on that cooking show Hell's Kitchen" as a judge a while back. The food was pretty damn tasty, and the side salad was amazing. The place feels like Olvera st. with all the day of the dead type decoration. A must try if in Redondo Beach.

"Kristina Rose" 6/7

So Revok stopped by work yesterday to paint the back of the shop. To do a piece for adult star Kristina Rose. I got to check out the live painting, and talked photography with my boy Willie T. He even liked my camera. Then Kristina came to model for her website. It was an interesting experience to say the least. Even Anton Yelchin from Alpha Dog stopped by. Too bad my camera died half way into the shoot. I'll post links to the finished product once they're up. You'll definitely want to see those bad boy's!

Someone please stop me

So I am a little late on this post, but I had lunch yesterday at In n' Out. for the third day in a row. I can't believe I never tried my burger with tomatoes before. I'm not a fan of tomatoes usually, but I am a fan of it on my double-double. It definitely adds texture, and tons of flavor. I am addicted for sure. I even added pickles, bomb.

Good morning Melrose Ave.

My First Art Competition

I entered this art contest for the Torrance Arts Guild (TAG) that B's co-worker told me about. I entered two pieces: "Hazzards of Work" and "Estimated 800". This was my first competition so I was super nervous, and anxious. It wasn't really my demographic or anything, but I thought it would be a good experience. To my surprise, I ended up getting an Honorable Mention ribbon for "Hazzards of Work." I was so excited that I was able to achieve such a thing. I really didn't expect it considering there were so many amazing pieces and artist. Especially being my first contest, I didn't know what to expect. All I know, is that I look forward to what lies ahead, and plan to enjoy every second of this ride. This definitely is just the beginning...
Honorable Mention Baby!! (Check out that shirt by the Seventh Letter, lookin' sharp!)

My other piece "Estimated 800"
That's me accepting my award.

Private Property

I prefer the after. But that's my opinion. Anyways, so my friend Tom told me that his company had a vacant warehouse out in Chinatown (so it's all legal). We were originally only going to take pics, but I brought my paint just in case. It was a large space, with a lot of buildings some of which are still in use. There was this beat up half pipe that he said I could paint on, so I went to town. This was the first time I painted my name in like 3 years. It was so refreshing. I definitely need to work out the technical stuff, but the idea is there, and it turned out pretty good. I wish I had more time to do a better piece, but there will be a next time. Until then...
