Fun at The Derby

We had a great time at The Derby last month. Many different kinds of artists and bands performing, and The Derby is a cool spot. Many thanks to Ivy Love from Code Carnivals for putting on the show and to Kasondra Komadina for the bitchin' photographs.

Sexy models getting a new coat of paint.


This is a painting that one of the artists, Jamie Kivisto, was working on. It's hard to see in the photo, but those are pieces of sushi, with human body parts in them. Tre cool.

Fun at Intergalactic

We had a great time at Intergalactic at The Mountain Bar last month. Here's a pic of my most popular piece from the night (I had 4 offers on this thing, I guess feather headed elephant snakes are in). Also included is a picture of artist Aida Robles. She brought this gigantic piece of wood and got to work. She does amazing pencil portraits. Check out her website at http://aidathegreat.com/.

Many thanks to Elle 7 for putting the show together!
