We Know, It's been a bit ... dodgy

There's been a slight lack of posts. OK, that's an understatement. We are sorry ... it's been crazy. And it's been crazy flippin' hot. I mean hot ... where you don't want to move or think, much less be productive. Everything is dying and our skin is aging at warp speed. Body parts that shouldn't sweat, do. A lot.

So in the meantime, think of us looking something like this,

(Melissa as Anjelica Huston & Wendy as Liza (because Wendy is a sucker for jazz hands), having amazing conversations and creative gatherings about fashion and art,


whilst gettin' our drink on.

We shall be back soon with lots of yummy pics of plexiglas address plaques and new art.
Promise.

Address Plaques Installed!

We loooovvveee seeing our plaques installed on costumers' homes and LOVE when we get the pics. Makes us feel all tingly and special inside.
This house is the double whammy ... horizontal and vertical. Darn swanky! Snazz-y.

Christmas in July....Um June

It's been a wonderfully busy time. We kinda feel like Santa's elves around here ... busy building address plaques.

Even though our latest round of plaques have a very Halloween-look to them.
Whatever the season, we're happy to make it merry and bright with loads of plaques!

New Collage Art Pieces

Nothing like seeing commission pieces come to fruition! Last month at an art show opening we had a friend purchased "Crisco #3" with the idea of creating 2 more pieces to go with it. After some thinking, figuring, cutting, creating, recreating, and then more cutting .... 2 pieces of art were created. First up, "Great Catch."
How hot is that car/boat, not to mention their catch of the day!? Next up is "Desert Swim Party." You know in the desert, everybody gets a little crazy.
The trio all comes together in an if-you know-Sam these pieces make perfect sense kinda way. Thanks for letting us get all creative and crazy.

Lovin' Johnny Tragedy

Discovered a new artist, and he is all kinds of amazing. Johnny Tragedy! Sensory overload. As soon as I got one piece, I wanted another. His combination of screen print, acrylic, and spray paint culminate in crazy layering upon layering with an end result of perpetual discovering. It's dark, it's funny, it's crazy ... his pieces cover the gamut. Check it out:

This is the piece I bought, "Los Banditos." Here it is, hanging right next to my DUAL and Ed Saavedra pieces. Can't wait to own another.

When You're Wrong, You're Wrong

When people order address plaques, we are always happy to make them however they want. After all, the end all product is going on their house, not ours. Recently, we got an order that made us raise an eyebrow - like that's gonna look kooky and weird and just not right. First, the client requested an opaque red plexiglas - we all but exclusively use transparent colors. Ok, not the end of the world I know. But then, he wanted it aligned to the right ... and pushed to the top of the plaque. Say what!?!? No way this is gonna work out.
Measured, drilled, assembled ... Holy cow that's hot. Mounted on the house ... Amazing no doubt! This client clearly new what he was talking about. We love it!
