Artist and Scotch lover with a "voracious appetite for witty vernacular".

So there you have it ho-ho-homies.
Free music, great art, and reading materials.
Go get Urban Canvas educated.


Be well and stay warm!

PS: I originally posted the blog to "Lady Kitt". I am sorry for the confusion. The holidays are kicking my assets! Regardless, they are both lovely, talented chicas. Check it.

Call for Artwork

OPEN CALL FOR ARTWORK:

Urban Canvas presents the annual Dia de los Muertos @ the Mountain Bar in Chinatown. A one day event to show us your best death face. We are accepting all work that uses death and/or Quinceanera aesthetics as a way to celebrate, revere and invoke our ancestors (or death itself). If you interested send an email to nadia.elisian@gmail.com with a jpeg of the piece.

Thanks,

N.e
