Life is Art

At least our lives are filled with art. All forms. I've realized most of our close friends are compiled of graphic designers, painters, carpenters, photographers, musicians, DJ's, jewelry makers, stylists, and just over all creative folk. It's very exciting to see that slowly but surely Sacramento is not just embracing, but actively supporting the arts and so are we. 

We went to a gallery opening last night and I was overwhelmed by the diversity in the art itself, the artists, and also the people mingling about. Something especially neat for us, was we got the chance to meet the street artist know. As BAMR who's incredible murals are just to the right of Lucas' on K street, and I hadn't realized, but BAMR also created a piece that is just to the left of Lucas' mural on J street as well. Last night he told Luke when they finally met that it was like they were destined to be side by side. :)

Queen of Hearts which inspired his mural on K

Side by side 

We have another close friend who is pretty big in the cycling scene and he is putting on Gold Sprints at Golden bear this weekend. Essentially from what I hear (this will be my first time) the bikes are on rollers and you sprint like hell and race against the person next to you to try to win really cool prizes. Kris enlisted Luke to help him jazz up the bike frames we're gonna be racing on. Here are some pics from that-

After- and I had to sneak my yoga bottle in for good measure.
