The Desktop Wallpaper Project featuring Portugal. The Man
Posted by Bobby Solomon • April 28, 2010 • Los Angeles + Music + The Desktop Wallpaper Project

As a part of the continued fun of Los Angeles, I’m Yours we’ve got the band Portugal. The Man hooking us up with all kinds of goodies. Biggest and best is that their performing at Space15Twenty this Saturday night from 7 to 10pm and it’s totally free. Not content to end their they’ve also decided to create a totally weird and amazing desktop wallpaper.

The wallpaper is a collaboration between Portugal. The Man frontman John Gourley and his buddy and partner in art crimes Austin Sellers. This is definitely one of the oddest and coolest wallpapers that’s been featured in a while. Part dinosaur part lady face part crystal hide equals… well I don’t know exactly, what do you think? I’m totally in love with the color palette they used though it potentially could melt your eyeballs if you stare at it too long.

A big thanks to Portugal. The Man and Austin Sellers for hooking us up with such rad artwork. For more details on the show this Saturday as well as a cool new music video click here.

‘Los Angeles, I’m Yours’ Video Walkthrough
Posted by Bobby Solomon • April 28, 2010 • Art + Design + Illustration + Kitsune Noir + Los Angeles

Right before the opening of Los Angeles, I’m Yours on Saturday Anh of Space15Twenty filmed me doing a little walkthrough of the space, explaining the different parts of the show. I thought I’d post this for a couple reasons, like the fact that a majority of you have actually never seen what me moving and talking, thus making me a real life person. It’s also a really great way to see what the show looks like if say, you live in Copenhagen. I’ll be working with another friend of mine to get a little more in depth coverage of the space as well, but I think this is a nice little preview.

The Original Hipster

Last night on the bus this magnificent woman climbed into the seat across the way from me. I had to take a photo of her, she was just too amazing. I love how her outfit is like urban camouflage and she can blend into the fabric of the seat as well as the grey pattern below it. Taking her photo makes me want to start documenting the weirdos of Los Angeles public transit.

Thank You.

I just wanted to write a little note saying thank you to, well, all of you. The blog actually turned 3 years old at the beginning of April but I didn’t make a fuss about it really. But it’s still amazing to me that there are so many of you out there who continue to enjoy what I’m doing, it still kind of boggles my mind. I feel like I’m just a kid who likes good design, but then I meet so many of you who really appreciate what I do and make me realize it’s more than that.

Thanks to everyone who came out tonight and supported myself, Poketo and all of the amazing Los Angeles based artists. Thanks to all of you who read the site and help make it what it is. And thanks to all my wonderful friends who came out to support me even though I’ve basically dropped off the map because I work so much. I had such an amazing night, my first art show!, and I can’t wait for the next big thing.

Sincerely,
Bobby
