Yes, today was supposed to be a second full day of mural madness for urbanshare, but alas, rain came and rained on our parade. Two hours of working in contstant drizzle, and we finally said no more. BOO!!! Oh well, slow and steady wins the race!! This mural will be a lovely addition to the community garden, I am excited none the less. Check out their blog for the St. Paulus site, Gough and Eddy in SF, here's the link.

111 minna sketch tuesdays

111 Minna makes "Sketch Tuesdays" happen,..last night was the 38th event of its kind. Curated by my very good buddy BKA ie: Brad K. Alder, bradkalder.com,..Sketch Tuesdays was inspired by the " Monster Drawing Rally " from Southern Exposure. The former curator of sketch tues. was Sascha Eckes, who made very funny hip drawings, and an all around cool chic, but Sascha moved away to I forget where, like Brazil or something I think, any way, she passed the tourch on to 111Minna slave, Brad K. Alder, and for the past, I'd say 2 years or so, Brad's been pulling in big names such as Henry Gundersen and Jeremy Fish, just to name a few. Along side such " emerging" artists, (if you can even call me that) as my self. I have been to many sketch Tuesdays and always have a blast, sometimes I am at the table with the big hitters, sometimes I just bring my sketch book, sometimes I take a night off and just look, buy cheap art and drink. GOOD TIMES!!!
Last night I was at the big table, I made 3 drawings and sold 2 outta 3, not bad! The art critic Ron Turner bought my first one, he usually does, nice guy, usually gets me a beer too, love that! {Ron Turner www.lastgasp.com}. A regular lady and her husband bought the other one, it had an owl in it, people love owls these days, If I made 10 owl drawings I bet they'd all sell...Owls are "in" right now..haha. But anyway here is a list of a few other peeps that were featured in sketch tuesdays...Just incase it inspires you to be around some of your favorite artists, check out this Fecal Face link too, they are usually there taking pics, I am in a bunch in this one, FUN!! http://www.fecalface.com/SF/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1531&Itemid=90 check fecal face in the future for more sketch tuesdays, usually the last tuesday of the month I believe..
Artists: Josh Ellingson, Dennis Mc Nulty (love him), Jesse Balmer, Helen Bayly, (my fellow mural painter), Manuel Ocampo, DAVe, Erik Parra and many many more!!!
