make-shift studio
so I set up a studio in my room finally, aka i nailed a tarp to the wall and have been throwing paint around ever since. i'm not sure what my new painting is going to turn into yet, but I'm having fun layering and playing with paint while I build up a base on the canvas. plus my dog died. must. keep. occupied.

My Halloween HARD Costume
one of the first things I did when I moved to LA was to go to the HARD music festival right before halloween. i took a white hanes t-shirt and burned it all over with matches. once i was satisfied with my tee's holiness, i rubbed the burnt shirt ashes all over the top to give it a grungy, fresh-out-of-a-horrible-accident look. then i sprinkled copious amounts of fake vampire blood all over it, added some pins i picked up from pop killer in los feliz, stuck in some safety pins for looks as well as for the purpose of holding my shirt together, and i danced the bloody night away!
T-shirt Inspired by Horace Roye
recently I've really gotten into vintage pornographic photography from the likes of photographers robert heinecken, wallace berman, and especially horace roye. i used iron-on t-shirt transfer paper from blick so i could rock horace roye's photo "tomorrow's crucifixion" from the 1930's all the time. i also took drywall sand paper to rough up the shirt, get some gnarly holes in it, and ladies and gentlemen i have a new fav shirt.

pimped out my train case :)
does anyone recognize that logo from the old marc by marc backpack? i cut it off because my pack was destroyed from me lugging it around campus and being a nerd/hoarder (still am) for so long, and i relocated it on my train case.

latest painting: ciggy scape
Materials: Acrylic paint, acrylic gesso, cigarette boxes, tobacco flakes, cigarette butts, used matches, galkyd. (48 x 24 inches)
unfortunately i only have crappy photos of this painting because i had to give it away before i moved out of oakland. quite fitting considering this painting is very grungy, ciggy scape would be defiant against having professional photos taken of it, right?
DIY
so i spray-painted the bottom of these h&m wedges red..
then i studded the top two straps with english cone studs (because i bought 1,000 of them a year ago), and spray-painted them 'champagne.'
second nirvana patch (they were buy one get one free obvs) on bland white high-waisted shorts with some more studs for kicks.
misfits strike again
since i can't have mary-kate's givenchy leather jacket from 2007 (drool here), i decided to make my own version complete with a misfits, the clash, and nirvana patch. all hand stitched, can't wait to rock it somewhere other than my house.
