Letters To Live By

New Fairfax Studios

BigSleeps — Sat, 20 Apr 2013 03:16:36 +0000

Here goes another great session. This one was done on Fairfax by me and my good homie Mr. Defer K2S. We had lots of fun on this wall. It was all done with acrylic paint and brushes in under 3 hours and was a special gift for our friend and owner Norm of Fairfax Studios formerly known as Will Rise Tattoo. Always a pleasure painting with such a talented artist such as Defer, he definitely pushes every piece to another level. Also wanna thank my girl for all these great pictures, you’re the best. Stay tuned for more great productions. K2S family reppin’ on Fairfax.

Stations of the Cross/Vatican Studios Grand Opening

BigSleeps — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 06:38:36 +0000

Here’s a few pictures from the Stations of the Cross show & Vatican Studios grand opening last week. Big thanks to Franco Vescovi for putting together this show. I was honored to be part of it. The turn out was amazing, so much talent under one roof and a large part of the proceeds from the auction are going to the City of Hope Childrens Fund, which made this event that much more important. I had a great time there. Wish I could post all the crosses but there was way too many.
