Women Drivers





I know not all women are bad drivers. Most are... but not all. I still love them... or at least like them enough to spend time with them. Some even get me work. One particular little lady decided to make a right turn into the Floyd's Barbershop in Encino as her Lexus tore into the shop in much the same manner that Godzilla tore into metropolitan Japan.
After a temporary wall was erected (feel free to giggle at me saying "erect") I got to paint my homage to her driving on the outside... and a piece on the inside. I'd been dying to paint Mugatu from Zoolander and his little dog forever... and now all the hairdressers know how hot Never is (it's obviously true because Mugatu says it is).

The Garter pt.II


I like being in bars. There's friends, girls, and alcohol. Many even have food (though not all have girls). Doing artwork for bars is a way to actually get praised and paid for spending my days (and nights) in bars where normally I'm just spending money... and time.
The Garter (on Lincoln just north of Washington) is one of my favorite watering holes in Venice so it works out quite well that they actually like my artwork.
