A couple of months ago, Diego Vivanco asked me via a lovely friend we have in common, Leo Sanchez, if he could come over to L.A all the way from Spain, to film me sketching around Los Feliz and Silverlake for few days.
'Oui!' ('Yes!') I replied. He jumped in the first plane available, with only his camera and a toothbrush in his bag, and the adventure started as soon as he landed in L.A.
Here's what Diego and Ian clark at Kauri Multimedia, along with a great musician in London, made out of all the material gathered over a couple of days in this lovely neighborhood.
I truly enjoyed working with Diego, he did a brilliant job, and so did Ian and the musician (I do not know his name, yet, unfortunately).
You can watch it in HD here, or embedded below.

Three of my good friends work for Silverlake Farms & most of my friends are part of Silverlake's CSA. This gave me access to the potluck for its shareholders. Party food friend time what whaaaat :)
Kevin & I chopped up some lamb chops, bacon, heirloom tomatoes & shallots, & made our way to the farm.
So much good food including butternut squash, homemade beer, urfa biber chocolate brownies and carrot ginger soup.
Nikos sang. It was my first time hearing him play. Amaaaazing.
I also made my first fire! With Germain's guidance of course.
peach mousse afterparty dessert
We listened to LCD soundsystem fireside & chatted about songs with secret dirty lyrics we never picked up on when we were kids. It made for a great last night in LA.

party down
checkers probably has one of the best happy hours in la. we spent 4 hours there. haaaa...
coolhaus ice cream sandwich. i finally ate you. & i love you.
i'm not really sure why people continue to attend the la art walk because the art is pretty disappointing. perhaps it's the people watching? perhaps it's the food trucks? i think it's the good friends & rooftops.
fries w truffle glaze. best grub money can find in little tokyo at midnight. well, except for kouraku. dang.

armed with my usual pot of genmaicha tea, i sewed like whoa at casbah cafe, my sliverlake coffee shop of choice. boo on you intelligentsia!
i sewed an H, a mustached S, a whale & an elephant in one afternoon! my reward: toffee + candied pecan & madagascar vanilla gelato with a sampling of sea salt caramel gelato at pazzo. yum!
then it was off to the books for the ultimate reward :) this song is one of my favorites to see live.
them playing the song live!
and this one was kevin's favorite:
mmmm... covering nick drake's cello song. so good.

the people, yes, the people. and El Lay, it doesn't get much better than LA. I'm so glad you rely on public transportation to get around. Most gente do not realize that, owing to the South Coast's air pollution, a child raised in LA has a life expectancy 7 years shorter than a kid raised in cleaner air. Last weekend I drove down Broadway at dusk. What a great street, one of the best boulevards! Pero sabes que? I miss Chicken Boy.
I love the way you really zeroed in on the sights, the sounds, the colors, the atmosphere! I feel like I was driving with you....
Thank you both! I love this town. I really do.
