Long days: March 2011

Elemental Ink

The last few weeks have been busy, exciting, stressful...which is my norm. Friday Feb 26 we had friends from Upstate NY and we met them out to Bar Standard for the La Muerte Fashion show then the Beauty Bar. Good times- drank, danced and acted a fool. Friday Mar 4th was our First Friday event at Luxe de Vil we had a last minute show with the talented ladies from Elemental Ink. We had a good turnout considering it was cold. January and February were extremely slow. We hired a new stylist Adam Hester, we got to hang out with him for a bit during the art walk and he starts this week.

I made a quick escape to Los Angeles this weekend. I had approximately 27 hrs to visit. I was able to have a short visit with the family. I was fed and sat on the couch and relaxed for a bit. I went down to Little Tokyo and popped into Mako Sushi, Q Pop Shop and Mini Gallery, and Hold Up Art. I met up with Cara in Echo Park. We had chai at Intelligensia Coffee in Silver Lake, and it was a damn good one. Headed down to Wacko/ La Luz de Jesus Gallery. They always have a really good show, so I took lots of pictures but with my cell phone so they aren't very good. My trip was shorter than planned due to school but I had a smooth trip and it was sunny and warm. When I arrived back in Denver it was lightly snowing but I'm always glad to be back. I do enjoy my life here.

Q Pop Shop & Mini Gallery is a great spot for one of a kind art and gifts. I loved it and the prices are reasonable.

Q Pop Shop

La Luz de Jesus Gallery has been around for a long time and I always visit on every trip. Funny because I noticed they still have stuff on their shelves from 10 years ago (or longer...)
