Mena Suvari
Its funny how shit happens. We've been playing " American Beauty " in the shop over and over for the last two years and here reaches out the startlett of the movie Mena Suvari . She was down to earth and hip to the culture.She killed it by making her first tattoo a portrait of a lion on the back of her neck.

George
George Gore 2nd has been coming to me non-stop and covering himself in angelic ink, not bad for an actor who's earliest work was Omar Epps lil brother in the movie "Juice". Check the movie out if you haven't yet and trip on Tupac Shakur in one of his earlier movies.

I was blessed with the opportunity to do a collaboration with Vans on a Simpson's project for the release of the movie. This week was the release of the shoe I designed, I took the family to the release party in Hollywood and I got the chance to meet Matt Groening, whom has been a huge influence on me and it shows me that anything is possible, to have him draw my portrait and choose me as one of the artists. That blew me away and really caught me off guard.

Saturday the 14 th of July was my 2nd lost angel limited edition toy release party,. For the event I broke out my 1963 ice cream truck and drove it to the show, the event was out of control. I did the signing a out reach for kids and helped raise money for Frankie's Kids. Their were over 50 low riders and 100s of bikes in attendance.

By the looks on every ones faces they loved the cars, the hogs, and the Mochi ice cream. Jason Pullen was doing the craziest tricks ever seen on a Harley, it was a peaceful event that showed unity of people bought together by candy paint & chrome.

For the Lost Angel limited edition toy release I decide to candy paint and mural out my Harley Road King Classic, The murals on the bike are dedicated to my homie Frankie, my blessings to you and your family, Ride in Peace Homie

“After travelling to Japan for 16 years, a couple of years ago I found this crazy desert called mochi ice cream. A year later in LA I tattooed the owners son and had enough Mochi to be back in Harajuku, yet I never thought I would make my own mochi ice cream for my 1963 ice cream truck. People at the toy event went crazy for the mango flavour.”
