People remember what you do, not what you say

IMG_9331-1I started my day off cruising down the street trying to find some places to take flicks at when I came across this yard. I started walking down the tracks and about half way down I came across these little suits. Passing these I heard what sounded like people getting a little wild in there. I stopped for a minute to try to make out what was going on and their was a couple having sex. I just shrugged it off and started walking down to take some more shots. On my way back there was a man smoking a cigarette like he just got done doing business.

IMG_9431-1These had to be by far the biggest boxcars I’ve seen towering 2-3 storied high.

La Fairfax

IMG_9284This past Saturday was the LA release for ‘All Gone: The Finest of Street Culture’ Book. By the time that we got there everyone was just standing around outside and mingling, while a few peeps were inside listening to the good tunes. Oh yeah and when we got there they didn’t have anymore tacos and you know how I like my food, So from the start I wasn’t feelin it. We chilled for a bit but not for too long because we had to go get our grub on.

IMG_9279The DJ was bringing the heat all NIGHT!

IMG_9296After the Stussy event you know we had to go get some food so we headed down to Fairfax and hit up this Pita spot.  By far the best Pita that we’ve ever had, hands down!

IMG_9289I’m not gonna lie it was our first time here but it was a good experience.. Great spices with great customer service, can’t go wrong.

Progression…

IMG_9101So last weekend we stopped by Thinkspace to see some new work and to say whats up to Dabs and Myla. We always drive by this spot but have never been inside, it’s a cool little spot. But anyways the main reason is because we’ve been following Dabs and Myla’s work for a long time now and they’ve been in L.A for a minute, so we were hoping that they would be at the show. I think it’s so cool that their engaged and they do street art-graffiti and are successful at it. There aren’t many couples out in the world that could say that.

IMG_9148Finally got to spent some time with cutest couple in the business! They were getting down outside the gallery with a little bit of a crowd surrounding them. We love there characters and lettering and to see it live in person was sweet. We’ve been sending each other emails back in forth and they’ve been really cool by keeping us posted about their next move. They been really busy keeping the flow going doing what they love.

IMG_9150Emails is one thing but to go up to some people that you kinda look up to and talk to them is kinda hard for us. We’re very shy people, pretty much little bitches when it comes to it but they made it really easy for us especially when they tell you that they like what we’re doing and to keep pushing. They were telling us that they been traveling a lot and getting ready for the Magic show in Vegas then out to Australia then to Tokyo….. living the dream. After all the traveling they will be heading back to L.A for a show and at the same time to get married in lalaland, how gangster is that. It was nice spending a little time with them and planning a future project with us coming soon.

Hate my 9-5 grind

IMG_9174So pretty much in my 9 to 5 job I do a lot of driving around to pick up parts and drop off Finished products. It gets really boring, so if I see something nice or something different I gotta take flicks! I’ve been trying to get better but most of them there just point and shoot im not as good or artsy as my partner in crime, but fuck it enjoy!

Another day another gallery…

IMG_9010So we finally came out of the cave… We’ve been really busy pushing our name doin’ our thing! So its been a minute since we’ve been to Venice Beach but we decided to give some support to Mitch Reiter. Mitch is known for the type of photography that he does which is really unique. Some stuff looks really cartoony while others look like he paints on them, His photos look crazy. Its been a while since we’ve seen anything like this!
