"Cyclists of San Francisco" Photo Shoot #2

What a shoot!  Over 1000 photos of 7 models.  Fuckin' awesome.

I couldn't have done it without Sean here.  He made sure all the photo equipment was on-point.

Glenn, Georgia, Alma, Gabby, and Lindsey got the hair and makeup sorted.

Huge thanks to all the models:  Alex, Camilla, Chelsea, Erika, Leigh, Lindsey and Maddy!  Also thanks to Gabe, Brandon, the Shorty Fatz homies from San Jose, Walton and others for bringing your bikes in for the shoot!  I had so many rad bikes to choose from.  And special thanks to my man Francisco for all his help too.  Thank you, thank you.

I'll begin drawing on the prints from the first shoot this weekend.  The finished series will debut at my solo show at Antonio Colombo Arte Contemporanea in Milan on February 24th.  A printed catalogue will accompany the show.

What a Friday!

Big up to everyone that came to my show with Mike Kershnar on Friday night.   Great party!  Go, Mike!

408 Posse in effect.

Mad peeps.

Yo, Phil!

Free beer always works.

Probably the darkest gallery in town.

Peter had a sweet shiner.

After the opening at The Skullz Press, we rolled down to Lower Haters where Tiffany and Francisco were feeling the love.

My man, Jeremy Fish!

After a raging show, Francisco and I headed to Mel's Diner for some late night refueling.

I got the Gardenburger with sweet fries.

Francisco opted for the cow burger with pig strips.

Good times!  Hope you can join us next month!

"Cyclists of San Francisco" Photo Shoot #1

I got a posse together last night to shoot the first four girls in a new photo/illustration series that for now I'm calling "Cyclists of San Francisco".  The finished pieces will debut at a solo show in Milan, Italy in February.

The evening started with a beer run, as most shoots do.  I had to do this beer run twice!  That's hella beers, dude.

I photographed Zey first...

Then Karina...

Then Katy...

And finally Becca!

This was a real team effort.  I gotta thank the models for bearing with the cold and all the beer swilling on-lookers.  Thanks to Sean at The Medicine Agency for supplying the location and photographic assistance.  Thanks to Gabby, Glenn and Alma for taking care of all the hair and makeup.  Thanks to Aisha for styling the whole shoot.  Thanks to Francisco for all your assistance and for taking these photos.  Thanks to Andrew, Jason, Rob, Colin, Lincoln, Jason Yim and the other guys who's names I've already forgotten who brought their bikes in for the shoot.  Y'all really came through at the last minute.

The next shoot is planned for Tuesday Dec 8th.  Please email me if you have a sweet bike I can use for the next shoot.  I mostly looking for nice track bikes in smaller sizes.  And I'm always looking for new models...
