It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Travis Millard‘s works. Needless to say, I was excited to wake up this morning and find “Los Angeles I’m Yours” had posted an interview with Travis. The blog “Los Angeles I’m Yours” focuses on – you guessed it – LA based art, design, lifestyle and culture, so the interview focuses on Travis’ sentiments on working out of LA. However, you get an insight into how his art career has developed, and the photographs showing his work space are, for the lack of a better word, simply awesome. Go check out the interview here.

Last weekend was the Eastside Culture Crawl. I had a lot of fun meeting hundreds of people, talking about art, whales and clouds. The turnout was amazing despite the cold weather. I wish we had a couple more events like these in the city.

Andrea‘s wall was super rad as always :

Angelica, my other studio-mate, had some awesome landscape paintings :

We also had a wall showcasing our prints :

Now I’m inspired and full of new ideas. Time to work even harder I guess.

Jeff Staple just updated his 1-2-1 series with a James Jean interview. I’ve always enjoyed James Jean’s illustrations and paintings. In the past few years James has slowly transitioned into the fine arts world, and it’s interesting to hear him talk about that transition in the interview.

P.S. I’m super jealous of his studio space…
