The ArtSwap club Eric | 2015 On Giving a Shit When I was a kid you could buy tacos at the park for a few dollars. The vendors upped their prices the moment new people came into the neighborhood and were willing to pay more for a goddamn taco. There are other changes, too.

ArtSwap | Helen
The ArtSwap club Helen | 2015 When Helen and I first started planning our ArtSwap, she offered up a few things for her submission, a photo from her portfolio, a portrait, or BBQ pork tacos. Artistically, I wanted the photo or the portrait, but my stomach ended up choosing the tacos! I’m glad it did, because… Continue reading ArtSwap | Helen
ArtSwap | Levi
The ArtSwap club Levi | 2015 I was just putting portraits in the window just because I wanted to draw people. There was no idea for swapping of art, or anything like that. But then Levi came along.

ArtSwap | Denis
The Art Swap club Denis | 2015 Working in the Art Garage, I get a lot of walk-ins. Some who are curious about the studio space. Some who are locals, just saying hi. Some chasing in after their dogs, who find the corners of the studio most curious. One sunny Monday, Denis walked up to… Continue reading ArtSwap | Denis
ArtSwap | Ernest
The Art Swap club Ernest | 2015 Ernest religiously walks twice a day. Once at 5am and the second around noon. Before we officially met, I would see him eyeing the studio from across the street.

Tiny Gallery | Week of November 24 | Mr. Green | “I’m currently a casting editor for televisions shows. Auditions that people come in for, I edit those and try to pitch these people. I kinda fell into that. I had no idea that was actually a thing… You can kinda shape the person, based on what you choose to include in the cut, which is kinda weird.” -Troy AKA Mr. Green-
