It is beautiful, then gone.

Layered love
My favorite thing about going to open-studio/esque scenarios and shows, is catching scraps +bits of pieces of their process. Something I can closely relate to.
Didn't catch the name but you know this artist let me know. <3
This was almost under the side of the table and it is perhaps my FAVORITE shot of evidence.
*love it*

If any of you are graphic loving nerds like myself, then you know the cat-loving reference to the title of this post, which honors a wonderful+beautiful book. Oh Martin, always so on spot.

So, quite apropos, that is what has happened to the Levi Workshop on Valencia street. I was just starting to learn furthermore about this concept of a Company opening a space for local artist and having an open studio-opening kinda thing, when I read this week that it has gone away.

Gone. +Just like that. Moved to NYC like everybody else...

Super bloggie friend and our sticker partner in crime - Local Mission District artist Rio Yañez, not only does awesome stuff around here, like zines, posters and all kinds of rad 3D art.

La vida artsy en 3D.

Mi friend taking the photo might have been experiment beer while shooting photos as conceptual art.
Rio makes sure you add some queso to your artsy experience with The Great Tortilla Conspiracy. "Who's next?"

The night was fun, the event ended at 10PM. It was cool to see some of my school colleagues from the early 2000 and other interesting people. Local community artists, artsy kids, way cool kids and I even spotted some artsy fartsy girls, rocking Chloe shoes. Qué snotty. I don't even see those much around pac heights. Those just pop out like a florescent light bulbs, you know?! Someone's economy must be alrite then, by saving all that money eating yummy burritos.

steel mushrooms are not harmful

The out crowd continued this fine evening by stumbling upon more fun at the Uptown. oh HAI.

Last call

And beautiful was the word of the day. Because beauty, truly is everywhere.
