From 303Magazine.com:

Although we can't replace the sweat-drenched elation of a Hi-Dive concert, we thought we’d at least try to bring the feeling back to our homes. With that in mind, we’re launching our own weekly live-stream aptly named, Private Party.

It’s open to everyone willing to watch but private in the sense that our wicked dance moves will only be witnessed by our confused pets and stay-at-home partners. See it as an opportunity to get even better at your cha-cha slide until we all meet again.

Every week will feature a local musician or DJ that gets us up and moving, encouraging libations (for the 21+ crowd, of course) and shenanigans that grace the dance floors of our favorite local spots year-round. This week’s private party includes DJ Buddy Bravo on Saturday night. Bravo is part DJ, part ballroom enthusiast and a full-time performer. This party will be a spectacle you do not want to miss out on, so make sure to tune in. 

Tune into our live story on our main Instagram channel and Facebook at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 9 to catch Dj Buddy Bravo’s set.

Mariah Carey Anniversary Live DJ Set

2020.03-mariah-set---FACEBOOK-EVENT-COVER.jpg

Cheers, Dahling! Let's have a splash to celebrate the anniversary of Songbird Supreme Herself, Mariah Carey! I'll be streaming live as well as live video on Facebook Live. Join me below!:


Please invite a lamb, make requests, and if you are in the position to, I'll accept donation here: www.buddybravo.com/donate

Thank you, Mariah, for all of the moments you have provided to the whole world! In moments when I felt alone when I was younger, when I was hiding in my room, your music always made me feel confident and full of life! Now as an adult in self-isolation again, your music reminds me of how to love myself, hot to call the hero inside me to be strong, how to let music be my saving grace, and as the world changes in front of our own eyes, how to shake it off, shake off all the worry, fear, and anxiety. Thank you and happy anniversary!

First Friday is the best time to catch new names in art, iconic Denver artists, and so much more. Located in the RiNo, River North Art District district of Denver, Millers and Rossi is a constant support to local creatives and March First Friday Art Walk was no exception. 

I began painting at 6pm sharp and planned on giving my canvas a good 3-4 hours of attention plus small breaks for food and drinks. Well, my friends, like many a good but sometimes challenging relationships, my canvas and I took a little bit longer than expected to come to a happy place. 

The night was punctuated by a live pop-up Burlesque Performance by New York City transplant, Ashley Monroe, a successful artist in her own right, winning performance and artistic credibility across the US. What an honor to share the evening with such a beautiful human.

I was situated directly in the center of three large scale and completely stunning images by Denver Photographer, Dustin Miller. I felt so chic and expensive working under the comfort of such beautiful work. See more of his work here.

First Friday is the best time to catch new names in art, iconic local artists, and so much more. Located in the RiNo, River North Art District district of Denver, Millers and Rossi is an unassuming art gallery in front and chic, lowkey speakeasy in the back.

 

I stayed until past 2 am when they finally kicked me out and all the drinks had been drank, and all the Denver-ites had gone home. But WE made it, my and my princess sleeve mawma. It was finally time for me to view my final piece... I had prepared the work to be be viewed using a set of 3d glasses but told myself I would not test them out until I was completed. It was time. I put the glasses on, did a little dance because it worked (!!!) and I was officially done!

During the event, I offered a limited edition print. If you were unable to make the event, I saved a small handful (10) for sell in my online shop. Click here now to visit the shop. 

My first live painting session was a personal success and in a magical and mysterious way, the universe has brought me even more live painting opportunities and I can't wait to explore this new creative challenge. 

Thank you everyone who came out to see me, share a splash, and participate in First Fridays. Special thanks to the staff and crew and Millers + Rossi for treating me like a million bucks.

This weekend, my installation of One Positive Thing was revealed at the 40West Art Festival. The 8 Panel display can be found at the corner of Lamar St and 13th Ave. in Lakewood, at the Lamar Light Rail Station. I had a great time meeting artists, community members and mingled with family and friends. I was honored to meet Lakewood Mayor, Bob Murphy and even more honored to receive the Mayor's Choice for my poster series! Such a great honor!

Thank you to everyone who came out to visit, see the other artists, and enjoy the great weather. If you have not gone out yet, go check out the new W-Line and while your there, snap a photo of yourself with the Station Wraps!

Dazzle Jazz Restaurant

This weekend, I was able to share my artwork with the guests of Dazzle Jazz Restaurant. It just so happens, on this night, one of my favorite Jazz Vocalists was performing. In a way, I was able to share the stage with Rene Marie, at least that's how I'm going to tell the story from now on.

Thank you to my family and friends who came out to celebrate at the opening reception with me. Special shout out to Dazzle and the art curator, Eric, for organizing the event.
