Tips on Tips: Photos

This Sunday’s ” Tips on Tips” workshop was a success! Vyal along with Make and Bash helped demonstrate the usage of every kind of tip/cap and explain the different varieties  of Montana paint. They also taught  techniques such as: highlights, shading and effects. Tip usage was also included on other brands of paint. Every body who attended got a promo pack filled with tips and stickers courtesy of Art Primo and Montana paint.  We got great feedback from everybody who attended they appreciated getting to learn or re-fresh on new tips and painting techniques.

Tourist In My Own City: Boyle Heights

Last month’s ” Pico Union Tour” was the first of a series of monthly walking tours we started doing here at Slangauge.  The concept behind this was to learn more of the facts and history about the city we grew up in. The days of stereotypical foreign ” tourists” are over! we as native Angelinos should be the first to know everything about our beautiful city. Unless you are a historian or history buff the average person might not necessary be aware of some of the history that surrounds us.  This past Sunday we did our Boyle Heights walking tour. We not only chose historical landmarks to explain but also added many other fun and interesting stops typical tours might not include.  Analilia Jimenez and myself were the guides for this tour it  consisted of 25 stops or mentions each with history and commentary. Karla Diaz and Erick Huerta also gave us stories and insider perspectives on certain locations.
