I attended a few meetings today. Checked up on all the finishing touches that are being prepped for paint, engineering + installation. It feels so weird that the new shop opening is right around the corner! Sorta surreal. Well, it’s been nearly 6 months since I signed my lease. My shop would of been open a while back if it wasn’t for my borderline o.c.d. and constant brain-stormage. I wanted to open my shop with a bang, rather than adding things to it down the road.
New video is going to be posted online in anytime now… hopefully tonight!

Who needs coffee + energy drinks when you have a bed to pounce on before you start your day. It looks like a ghost snuck in there to cause some mischief with me. For real though, the word around my hotel is that it is really haunted.

So I’ve been internet friends with this guy Dan Fleres for about 4 years now. During the opening of my very first home town shop, I displayed a number of Dan’s uniquely styled paintings. 4 years later he spotted me from across the street and came over to say hello. He was in town for one of his art showings at the Carmichael Gallery of Contemporary Art in West Hollywood. If anyone gets a chance, head over there.
The show also consisted of some other great artists; Blinky, Downtimer, Josh Taylor and Zoso (whom also is another internet friend that I finally met. Thanks for helping me out in my time of need!)
Happy birthday Dan – and nice to meet everyone!
