SNAG @ the Cobalt, Vancouver Jan. 29

Since I was in Vancouver for a visit, Drew Young asked me to do SNAG last week with a group of artists including the awesome Katie So (who had just recently been feature on booooooom.com)
It was kind of crazy to do this the last night of my visit to Vancouver (I was waayyyy tired and groggy) But it was so nice to hand off my finished piece to the lovely lucky Lucy who won it! (horse theme for chinese new year :P)

Postcard Show Vol. II photos + SNAG tonight @9pm!

TONIGHT I'm doing SNAG again, come to the Cobalt on Main St. to see some live painting by other amazing artists as well. The lineup can be found on the facebook page.

Also the postcard show vol. 2 was a lot of fun. Saw some really awesome pieces as well as ran into some fantastic artists! I submitted the series below:

SNAG + Burlesque night tomorrow!

I've decided to do a last minute SNAG appearance to say goodbye to Vancouver! If you're able to come out to the Cobalt, come say hello/goodbye and have a chance to take away some affordable Awesome-sauce art!

The piece from my first SNAG event, won by the Cobalt's very own DJ that night:

I dunno what I will paint this time...I guess you'll have to come and see, eh? (wink wink)!

SNAG, more work and past show!

Last wednesday I had the lovely opportunity to participate in SNAG at the Cobalt in Vancouver thanks to DrewYoung who organizes the event (You can find more info on the facebook page) and all my friends who showed up to support! :D
