You don’t have to lie to kick it

IMG_2153 IMG_2154On the way to Upper Playground we stopped by this spot in culver city, Santa Maria BBQ. As you can see it looks pretty snazzy,but is was garbage, the burrito was fucking dry, the ribs had no BBQ sauce, but i guess the mushroom burger was o.k! waitress was kinda cute slip n’ slide.

IMG_2163After that nasty ass food we finally got on the freeway straight to the playground…IMG_2168We got to Upper Playground  and they had a Patrick Martinez installation,  I thought it was pretty clever work but my brother e-dub didn’t like it. Remember these old school folders one of my favorites things there!

On my lunch break I stopped by Scions Installation Five in Culver City which showcases Forty four Artists and there interpretation of Self Portraits. It isn’t your typical self portrait, the artists used several mediums such as Paint, Photo, Sculpture, Custom Casting, and Video. Over the last year, the show visited Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis, New York, Philly, Portland and San Jose. The art is auctioned off through the 30th of September and all the proceeds will go to the Creative Capital- A non Profit art organization.
