In short- Another long standing artist space closing due to an unaffordable rent increase just as the holidays approach. 

We shouldn’t have to worry about this sort of thing but here we are. I know so many are struggling with similar realities. It fucking sucks.

If anyone has any leads on studio spaces in San Francisco please let me and/or @shainedrake know. 

Thanks for listening 🙏

Who's got two thumbs, a Woffice, and is ready for the new school year? This guy!

Week 1, done and dusted. It feels weird to not be teaching Fil Am Arts this fall, but I needed that bandwidth to step into my new role as... Program Director for Fine Arts here at USF. 

I love teaching and my path has always been art education, but this has rarely aligned with any kind of job security or career advancement. Having been an adjunct forever, only recently have I seen this extend into short full-time contracts and now a leadership role.

Getting to hang out with strange, curious, thoughtful students is a joy. Having excellent colleagues, coworkers and campus buddies is the best. Learning how to be an administrator is daunting, but I love a good challenge.

Anyway if you want to check out one of the more distressing faculty offices on campus, come say hi. I'm wedged in between the giant tape ball and the fake rocks and the big pencil.

Catch us on @kalwpublicmedia 91.7 FM for their latest Crosscurrents series! Thank you Viviana for coming to our space & listening to us yap about sign painting. We definitely do not take full credit for the resurgence but are so grateful to be in such rich community of sign painters in the bay area (and beyond) as well as all of our clients that have put their trust in us over the years! We are so thankful to continue to do what we do 🎨🖌️✨

We don’t do interviews often and hate hearing our voices so please be gentle 😝 Link to listen in our bio!

We’ve been working on @adastragym’s branding & identity and now we’re getting to the fun part — actually painting it. Here’s the first of it in physical form; an a-frame! The shape on top was a fun addition to give it a lil art deco touch. We added acp panels they can attach to let folks know a class is in session. It’s also blank on the other side so they can use a dry erase marker to highlight anything else like events or just a fun message for people walking by. There is definitely more to come for @adastragym!

Not being ready and doing it anyway will take you far. Shoutout to everyone for all the love and support. You have no idea how much it means to a small business. And much love to the young 🐐 for sliding thru to our Grand Opening 🤙🏽✨

Got to paint a fun banner for @sighgonethrifting — with Viet inspired lettering for the Viet owner of this small business! Her partner commissioned me to design & paint this as a birthday gift — how sweet this was and such a treat to do! I haven’t done this color combo yet and I loved how it turned out. Thank you for having me, I’m so excited to see it up and flying high already 💅🏼 Catch Cat Pham at @happyhousesf & @citystationsf @suckaflea for all your thrifting needs yall!

Congratulations @bittersandbottles on their new location here on Fell & Broderick! They had opened 6 months ago but we hadn’t noticed since their building had blended into the background — which nothing a fresh coat of red paint and all this lettering can’t fix :) Thank you so much for having us, we don’t get to paint this much exterior walls often so it was a real treat, even in this chilly summer! Come through to their beautiful space and extensive collection of all their boozey (and nonalcoholic) goodies!

Someone who lived across the street thought we were actually tagging the place 🤣 don’t worry, just a lil spray cleaner!

I Know a Spot w/ @signsbymeng  📸

On episode 6 of I Know A Spot, we learned how Michelle’s eagerness to learn from others impacted her career and how to apply that same eagerness into your search for mentorship. 

Haven’t heard the interview yet? Check out episode 6 of I Know a Spot w/ the super talented @signsbymeng. The full episode is on our profile.
