CANVAS SHOPPIN'...

Getting ready for the Sweet Things exhibit (which I'm co-curating) opening July 8th at Crewest Gallery in Los Angeles.  This series of paintings will be my first paintings for 2010.  Feels good to take a break from uptown and head on a lil' trip to SoHo to get some canvases.

Googoo 4 Gaga

Regardless of all the comparisons to Madonna-and we all see the inspiration- I say Lady Gaga is wearing the crown right meow. That's what its all about just standing out from the crowddddd and at  times reinventing the damn wheel. Plus, who doesn't love a video where the men are wearin' heels! Holla...

NEW BOOK! GRAFFITI TATTOO

Last summer, I finally got to tattoo the outline that the one and only  SEEN had given me. Since he doesn't tattoo like he used to, SEEN highly recommended CES to do the job - and of course I did it with him! Ces' tattoo portfolio is full of clean straight lines! Photo by Cope2. Good lookin' out to KET and MED from Tuff City Tattoos in the Bronx.  Published by On The Run (shout out to Akim). Find it at your local graf shop or in selected bookstores!

QUEEN ANDREA x INDIE184

A few weekends ago, QA and I got collaborated on a 2-woman wall in the Bronx. It was fun and full of surprises, we had a nice array of around the way folks, writers and kids- even po-po wanted to crash in on the party, but we are too slick for their asses. Always good to be prepared kidz...better luck next time coppers!

Shout out to SERVE for the awesome outline!!!! and SIEN & Copezilla for hangin' out and filming your girls.
