If you're interested in velvet painting, tattoos, pop culture, and drinks- I'm having another art show at the Mini Bar in SF on Divisadero. The opening is Thursday, December 19, 2013 6-11PM
My velvet portraits will be sold for a very affordable price.
I'm still in the ongoing throes of home improvement, and, painting velvet, ain't nobody got time for that.
I get my art-soul filled at work, tattooing at Sacred Rose Tattoo in Berkeley, CA.

My great friend Jen has been the mastermind behind the colors of my hair for years now. Recently, the salon moved locations to the new and improved, 304 Valencia street, SF. Their grande re-opening is tonight, I'm hoping to be there. I'm looking forward to getting my hair recolored once again. I'm not sure what color yet. Maybe I'll go with ocean colors this time, since last summer I was flourescent hot pink and blood red.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGiXMhb0FrmvNZvi_ELaRBHQ6EisAekEuuUAE6pQGT1nJaeLBiKH5pwuRjfkw2ED64eZOtv4-59JG0OehW4Q4q04WNcmqXMKrRZch973fj0IkPu2NWVewJx3BStj1PhMwqQ-3aiFkj7jLq/s1600/HAIR.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 310px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGiXMhb0FrmvNZvi_ELaRBHQ6EisAekEuuUAE6pQGT1nJaeLBiKH5pwuRjfkw2ED64eZOtv4-59JG0OehW4Q4q04WNcmqXMKrRZch973fj0IkPu2NWVewJx3BStj1PhMwqQ-3aiFkj7jLq/s320/HAIR.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5479725161158367986" /></a><br />Call them at 415-861-4526 and make an appointment.

Upon exiting the Great American Music Hall in SF last night he found a button from that very fanzine. Funny since when it was published most back in the 90's I would read it in Reno, NV and Jeremy would be doing the same in Berkeley, CA. He told me he had a Murder Can Be Fun datebook that a cop hassled him about having.<br />Lastnight was one of the funnest nights we've had out in a long time. Jeremy found out the Murder City Devils were booked to play two shows in SF. Seeing how we're friends with the band (through Jeremy's connections) it was prudent we go and say hello them as well as watch them play live, some of our favorite all time songs. Gabe, the tour manager, gave us backstage passes. It was sweet to be shuffled around like a queen and such.<br />We talked about puppies, jiu jitsu, music, Seattle, Los Angeles, and laughed a lot. It was awesome to talk with Gabe, Dann, Spencer, Derek, Nate, & Leslie. We even ran into several friends from Oakland. I wish I'd taken more photos lastnight; but often being backstage; I don't like being in people's faces with the camera.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/36703508@N00/4587465148/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3302/4587465148_b359ee45ac_m.jpg" style="margin: 5px;" width="210" border="0" height="281" /></a></center><br />After Jeremy laughed with Gabe about when going into a match, he shakes his opponent's hand and says, "Lets have some fun" while pointing out the backstage passes "fun times" I told Gabe about my summer camp called Super Happy Fun Playtime. He liked it apparently. :)<br /><br />Although, Spencer sings this song for his love, Coco, I must say, these days it really hits home for me on so many levels, it's called "Dear Hearts"<br /><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/g5rzBvKS7as&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/g5rzBvKS7as&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object><br />.…<br />Dear Hearts<br />I had a rough start<br />Don't let it fall apart<br />Until the fire start<br />We'll rip it all apart<br />Gonna show, show some strong heart<br />I had a slow start<br />But I'm ready for the good part<br />Rejoice<br />We made the right choice<br />If there's something wrong you know they'll find it<br />Well, I say<br />I say let'em have it<br />I got a preachers mouth and<br />A rock n' roll heart<br />A rock n' roll heart<br />Well somewhere between the round and the square<br />There's a spiral<br />Take ya to the top<br />Right to the top<br />And once we started<br />You know damn well<br />You know we can't be stopped<br />Dear hearts<br />We had a rough start<br />You know its the slow music of the spirit<br />It makes ya wanna touch<br />You know its much too much<br />You know its much too much, oh<br />And it's the spirit<br />That makes ya wanna touch, oh<br />Rejoice<br />We made the right choice<br />If there's something wrong you know they'll find it<br />Well I say let'em have it,<br />Let 'em have it, oh<br />… <br />I will update this entry of the Slim's show with photos taken by a friend, and more on backstage mayhem.Gaythahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294453133143217654noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880974950290646099.post-9617248707030257632010-05-05T11:59:00.000-07:002010-05-05T12:03:43.672-07:00"Sana sana culito de rana, si no sanas hoy sanaras manana..."<img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEyNzMwODYwOTA*ODAmcHQ9MTI3MzA4NjA5NDA*MyZwPTY5NDMwMSZkPSZnPTEmbz*yNDEwMWE4OWM*YWY*ZTgxOWFi/YjUyZjRkNDQ4N2RjYyZvZj*w.gif" /><div style="text-align: center;

If it looks fun to use, doesn't cost an arm and a leg, and helps feed my creative streak, I most likely have it. Last summer when my home pc died, in an effort to keep up I'm my email, and still be able to do things I love like photography, art, and Photoshop. Then I found the Hipstamatic. Like those great toy cameras like the Holga, this app processes you iPhone photos to look like those moody pics from our teenyears and childhood. The app also links you to a store to purchase gels for the "flash" and an array of other lenses. Digital never lokoked so analog.<br />I took this photo on a dog walk in the Mountain View Cemetery. <br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/02/19/456.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/02/19/s_456.jpg' border='0' width='525' height='525' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />Gaythahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294453133143217654noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880974950290646099.post-72566083428777752862010-01-03T09:07:00.000-08:002010-01-03T09:44:14.730-08:00Busy happy New Year!The past few months have been so busy, an update is now in order.

Now I have a 1TB hard drive, and bare-bones software. My music is still patchy, and I'm still trying to get my itunes to work properly. Silence has been the popular tune lately.<br /><br />The velvet painting remained on hold since summertime, and I plan to resume them this week. The portraits I dabble in here and there- I just need to build the confidence that I won't be butchering the beautiful faces of these amazing drag queens.<br />I finished the doggie area of the back yard, and will hopefully post some before and after photos. I'm also working on getting rid of things that I don't use, or have no use to me. This included editing my etsy shop down to small vintage items and just art. I looked at my books for last years etsy sales, and ended up learning I lost $100 to it. As much work as I put into the vintage aspect of my shop, I decided to quit the vintage sales and focus on my art. I did sell a tiki painting on etsy that i was going to have in my art show, it was the "Cheeseburger" painting. I think I may just go for it and paint another. <br />My lovely and amazing painting of Peaches Christ was "lost" by the Oakland Art Museum and the East Bay Express people along with a large tiki painting, and the watercolor of the medusa tattoo I did on my friend Brenda. Needless to say, I still need to get them to pay up; but it may be to my advantage- advertising. I know some people, so I will pull some strings. The loss of thta epic painting still has me really bitter, and it stilted my momentum on the painting. Since then I've got unfinished Metal Patricia and Heklina. I know once I'm done with those two, I can relax into doing a couple of large tikis and follow up on some cheeky paintings of monsters and maybe some criminal portraits. I haven't made a solid deadline for the show, so maybe I will work on that asap.Gaythahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294453133143217654noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880974950290646099.post-3855739247564349682009-10-16T17:58:00.001-07:002009-10-16T17:58:34.410-07:0080%The infill on the fence took me six hours to install. My mom helped out a little here and there. I had to cut each individual board on the fence so it would be level across the top; because the ground was uneven.<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/16/568.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/16/s_568.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Pictured above was the beging of the infill.

It's funny- now she can't look at it!<br />Gaythahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294453133143217654noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880974950290646099.post-58310945412939381782009-10-15T20:18:00.000-07:002009-10-15T20:19:06.221-07:00Delays and moving onwardToday I finished the frame of the fence. I took a little bit of extra time because it was raining and I was cutting the wood in the garage. So, that proved to be time consuming. I was relieved since it wasn't as cold as the previous days. I wish I had more carpentry skills before starting this project. I made a lot of silly mistakes yesterday, that could've been avoided if I'd more experience. By the time I was screwing in the last few rails, I had a pretty good system down.<br />The neighbor kid stopped by to talk tattoos. He's been visiting my mom here and there to say hello and smoke a cigarette. I'm grateful that he visits her and I asked her to tell him I'd give him a tattoo for free. I just feel like it's a nice way to show him my appreciation.<br />Tomorrow is supposed to have a lot less rain; and I'm gearing up to cut the posts and hang the infill on the fence. I'm going to end up having to trim off 7" from each board. That will be fun for a 12'x15 dog run. Then once all that is done- I'm planning on begining the gate. I'm hoping to finish the gate by Saturday.<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/15/648.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/15/s_648.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /> <br />Gaythahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294453133143217654noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880974950290646099.post-10178711500361140372009-10-13T18:10:00.001-07:002009-10-13T18:10:12.674-07:00Building a fence<br />After quite a while I decided to come out to visit my mother in Minnesota. I've been working seven days a week all Summer long. So, naturally, once school started I had to begin planning some sort of vacation. <br />Plane tickets are super cheap- and my second cousins had been wanting me to bring out my equipment to tattoo them. <br />So the first day I was in for it & ended up tattooing for twelve hours straight. The next day was my second cousin's (Kella) 21st birthday. We celebrated it at my cousin Debbie's house in Zumbrota, Mn. My mom and I hauled the lumber she'd arranged to get from Kella's dad.<br />The next day was spent gathering supplies. It snowed. I can't say that I like the snow or the cold much unless i'm inside all snuggled up. <br />This morning was spent digging post holes then Debbie came by to help. Without her help, I don't think that we would have gotten all of the posts set in cement before sundown. That was awesome.<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/13/588.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/13/s_588.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /> <br />Gaythahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294453133143217654noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880974950290646099.post-67087876955461908232009-09-22T10:08:00.000-07:002009-09-22T10:11:07.313-07:00Help the dog win a contest!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNFmwhHMNpUDvaW1q9IVoU5d3uDKosz1uYJiekCrGxxXfURLxpKn4MjrbUavvUWI9aowoX5kTkDKMF-uCiDsSURS3lFwhBmD_pLw-CMh6pyNvMcZhtiO_rv_KSoa0OY-XLUzoug3-MTXxA/s1600-h/squeekstheedog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 239px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNFmwhHMNpUDvaW1q9IVoU5d3uDKosz1uYJiekCrGxxXfURLxpKn4MjrbUavvUWI9aowoX5kTkDKMF-uCiDsSURS3lFwhBmD_pLw-CMh6pyNvMcZhtiO_rv_KSoa0OY-XLUzoug3-MTXxA/s320/squeekstheedog.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384340471621280706" /></a><br />Yeah I know, I entered in a cute dog contest with my baby.

The past moth I've been really burning the candle at both ends. Running a summer camp, running a household, and tattooing at the shop on the weekends. Yesterday was my first day off in a while- and most of it was spent drawing a giant dragon tattoo design. I've completely neglected my etsy shop for the entire summer but managed to still squeeze in some yard work and quality time with my dog.<br />In the meantime while I wait for my computer savvy friend to send me a list of the things I need to purchase to resurrect my dead computer- I've been downloading some really cool iphone apps that have kept me in the loop. I edited my reading list on blogger/google so the updates wouldn't take hours to read.<br /><br />I might be moving on from one morning job to a new family (I nanny in the mornings for a couple of hours & bring kids to school) but recent tragic events have slowed the whole thing.<br />The doggie is doing awesome. She moved up to Tim's obedience class; and is begining to understand that we're the bosses. She's been so behaved! Such a cutie too!<br />Life is grand.Gaythahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294453133143217654noreply@blogger.com0
