One More Day…
The opening is tomorrow. I’ve gotten all the paintings done, all display tiles done, all paper work, promotion and marketing that I could possibly do done. Brandon helped me tons and will be working with me throughout the installation and hanging til the end. It’s so good to have a friend like that to help.
Oh yeah, one more thing I did. Couple days ago I made a website to go along with my BUMMER painting, since it’s become so popular. It’s BummerArmy.com. It’s far from perfect, I have more and better designs to create for the tshirts and stuff, but it’s something and I did it myself in mostly one day. So I’m kind of proud of that.
Here’s one of the stickers that I ordered and which will HOPEFULLY be here by tomorrow.
What else? I dropped my brand new camera on the porch 2 days ago and it stopped working instantly. Lucky for me I’m only a couple miles from the gigantic CANON service building place. They fixed it, replaced the motherboard and had it back to me in less than 24 hours. For FREE. Even the guy working at the counter was surprised about that. He was looking at the paperwork and did the eyebrow thing, but tried to make it look like he didn’t. And then he said “Okayyy” like he was actually confused by it. I just told him it’s the perks of stardom. No no no I said no such thing. Ok enough of this chatter, I have a show to prepare for. More soon.

Outside the Tate Modern
This is a painting I did based on a photo I took when leaving the Tate Modern Gallery. It will be in my upcoming show.

For Banksy
Here’s a new painting that’s going into my show. I’ve dedicated it to Banksy, an amazing artist, a man who has no idea how much he has inspired me, and creator of the best manifesto in the history of ever. He reminds us that we aren’t asked by the media whether or not we’d like their message shoved down our throat in public, so it’s completely within our rights to communicate OUR message publicly. You’re right, man, forgiveness IS easier to get than permission. <3

Solo Show #2
Well, a LOT has happened since I last posted anything. So it’s time to get back to keeping my friends et al updated.
I’ve been working on getting all the paintings done for my new show. Opening night is Feb. 1 at the Whittier Law Library in Costa Mesa, CA. 7 pm. I’m still trying to find out if I can have food and drinks there, since it’s a Law Library and I’ll let you know once I find out. 20 of my paintings will remain there for 3 months, so if you can’t make it opening night, you’re free to stop by any time for 3 months afterward…if you’re so inclined.
I’d love to stay and chat but I’ll be up til about 4am painting for the next 2 weeks or so, so I’d better go. I’ll leave you with one of the new paintings. It’s called “Morning Cafe”, and it’s a place I had breakfast near the Mansion House tube station in London.
More to come…
XO, Erica
