It has all the best things from the 80's and 90's you LOVED growing up.

Okay, July is BIRTHDAY MONTH! So if you see me in the streets, be sure to get a birthday hug. I have SEVERAL SHOWS IN JULY!
Greenwood, 35th North and a showing at Starbucks in Pioneer Square for fun. If I haven't called you back, returned your email or said hello in a while, I am a jerk! I am truly sorry, but I have been hibernating!

I hope this post finds you all well, cheers!

Man-faced fish by 179 and Japhy Witte... Sorry Veks =(

I like Japhy's Fish Face. He looks mischievous (kinda like him).

Few and Far 2011:: Process

I had so much fun painting with these ladies!
Here are progress shots of the weekend we spent in Oakland prepping and painting this wall. You can see more information on the future Few and Far Blog, TooFlyNYC Blog, and the 179 Flickr.

Few and Far Oakland 2011
Hops and I getting down with some characters! I don't really like painting on ladders. These are Hop's caricatures of her and Lady Mags, another amazing woman who painted above her.

Few and Far Oakland 2011
Breakfast of champions! It is supposed to be 2011 starting with the rabbit, but I got a little crazy and HAD to add the star and Germbot.

Few and Far Oakland 2011
This is a bear-dog. He was great. He watched me paint for a few hours. What a good ole' dog.

Few and Far Oakland 2011
Here is my proton of the Paintbrush section of the wall. I painted with 2 other really talented ladies and then went to help on the larger part when I was finished. Again I had to paint on a ladder and 2 stacked milk crates. Yes, I know, I am very short.


Here is the link to the past blog where Ksera, TooFly and Reds were interviewed and the official Flier;

This was done by Ego, one of my heroes. He is pretty cool and all.

Anyhoo, this was done at Cafe Vita a long time ago. I just found it in my Treasures. I have another caricature a friend did of me that I will post when I get back from SF. Thanks for stopping by and BE GOOOOOOD!
