Slow down Easy Rider!

I know, I know...I'm running WAY behind with this post. I also know that most of you understand that Burning Man prep is in full-effect so everything (including sleep) has to wait a bit these days.

A couple of weekends ago the Lofties celebrated the much anticipated FIRST birthday of their beautiful little boy, Andre! Dr. Dre sure can pull in a crowd! Such a blast!!! In fact I'm not sure who had more fun...the Shorties or all of the BIG kids who got to take a whack at the Piñata!!!

Yep, action-packed weekend, indeed!  The Eastsiders and I rallied yesterday and managed to squeeze in the final day of the LA vs. WAR show taking place @ the Firehouse in Downtown LA.  Totally STELLAR show, yo!  And, yes, it was hot downtown...but absolutely worth it.  

Complete propaganda overload...if that's even possible.  With over 250 pieces of art plastered all over the walls we must have circled the venue at least three times.  Did not want to miss a thing!  Most of the prints, posters, stencils, originals, limited editions, etc. were for sale and due to the number of really amazing (as well as totally moving) pieces we ALL had a very hard time narrowing down which one(s) were going home with us...

Art: Caught In The Act...

Last weekend while hanging with my favorite Eastsiders we popped into the urban art supply store, Maintain in Silverlake.  In a small courtyard on the side of the shop I captured this creator creating.... 

That Dude had mad skillz!  It was amazing to see how much control he had with those spray cans.  So impressive!

It seems like just about everyone I know is either expecting or recently had a baby. Here are a few pics from my recent visits with some of the families currently contributing to the progression of The Tribe.

Congrats, again, to all of my Lovelies! So blessed to have you in my life!
