ANDREW HEM (CALIFORNIA) His introspective, otherworldly paintings explore realities one step away from our everyday waking life. What if our thoughts flickered across the surface of our skin like ephemeral silent movies? What if spirits walked among us, trying to find their path? What if there were no racism, and even the most outlandish people were accepted? What if the children of Andrew's native land had been allowed to live in peace and thrive?

Born during his parents' flight from Cambodia in the wake of the Khmer Rouge genocide, Andrew grew up poised in the balance between two cultures — the gentle animistic society of his Khmer ancestors, and the dynamic urban arts of the tough Los Angeles neighborhood where his family eventually came to rest. Fascinated by graffiti at an early age, he honed his skills with graphics and composition on the walls of the city before following a passion for figure drawing to a degree in illustration from Art Center College of Design. Working in gouache, oil and acrylic, he weaves atmospheric, richly textured narratives in a vivid palette of twilight blues enlivened by swaths of deep red and splashes of golden light. His haunting impressions of culture and landscape evoke the life of the spirit through the visionary manifestation of memories and dreams.view more

Quick post to say hello! I didn’t get a chance to properly shoot photos yesterday so this iPhone photo will have to do for now.Backless Prom Dresses
Posted this photo last night on my instagram and got a lot of inquiries about both the tee and skirt! The tee is the perfect gray tee; it’s slouchy, feels worn in and super comfy! Definitely a staple piece that I always talk about. Paired it with the neon floral mini to dress it down and make it more laid-back.view more

What I love about summer is the easy-breezy dressing. Flowy dresses, light button up shirts, cut off shorts, etcetera. Yesterday’s look was perfect for the hot L.A. weather as it kept me cool and fresh.
My hair is a tad bit lighter because I visited my girl Nikki at Nine Zero One yesterday! Nothing crazy, just kept it natural, I love it! How you keeping your hair for the summer?view more

ronaldinho 300x225 Home town heroes: Atletico Mineiro v Olimpia, Copa Libertadores final second leg preview
Add caption

Tonight, finally, the few hundred Atlético Mineiro supporters who spent over a week camped on the pavement in the queue for tickets for the Libertadores final second leg against Olimpia will find out if the cricked backs and chilled bones were worth it. Seeking to overturn last week’s painful 2-0 defeat in Asunción, they and 60,000 other Galo fans will attempt to coax their weary side into one more dramatic last stand in a campaign that has been full of them.
They can be forgiven their giddiness. This, after all, is Galo´s first ever Libertadores final, whereas Olimpia has lifted the trophy three times already, in 1979, 1990 and 2002. Yet going into last week’s game many considered the Paraguayan team to be the underdog, mostly due to the financial balance of power (both footballing and otherwise) between Brazil and its much smaller neighbour. While Olimpia players recently went nine months without being paid, Atlético boasts a monthly wage bill of over R$4 (£1.2) million. Ronaldinho’s wage packet alone would pay that of almost the entire Olimpia squad.view more

Toby Morris began making comic books when he was just 13 years old. His earliest work was about superheroes. He printed the comics himself and gave them to his friends at school. He was encouraged by his readers to delve out of the superhero genre and to read Love and Rockets, a comic about Latino punk rockers in LA in the 80s and 90s. He discovered that not all comic books have to be about superheroes and this greatly inspired him and broadened his creative horizons.view more
