TEASE(D) Opening at Somewhere Else in Berkeley, CA 4/2/16

Somewhere Else Gallery at 1212 San Pablo in Berkeley.

The B-Side Brujas were set up out front spinning vinyl long into the night.

Elrod between two of her paintings for the show.

I really dug Natasha Lillipore's three-piece untitled submission's use of simple colors and amorphous shapes in the background

One of a few crazy wigs submitted by Bunny Pistol from Laquer Studios.

There was a great vibe on the sidewalk out front all night, it was a great place to hang out, catch up, and meet new friends.

There was no lack of cool vintage sequin covered circle skirts.

Another pic of the crowd out front, good times were had.

One of a couple great submissions by Amanda Payne.

Elrod's painting of Priscilla Presley was so glittery that even Elrod had to question if she'd gone too far this time.

"Fantasy", on of a few cool pieces submitted by Jen Oaks.

I dug Amber Tilden's chola take on Lucillle Ball.

Elrod's three piece submission of Priscilla Presley, Dolly Parton, and Raquel Welch.

Dogs were welcome, tripping was not.

Another of Bunny Pistol's great wigs.

Josie's 57 looked great under the streetlights as the evening was winding down.

The B-Side Brujas kept a cool vibe going the whole night.

Tons of attitude in this piece called "Big Tease" by Izzy Garcia.

Dig this vintage hair dryer painted by the legendary Alex Valdez sitting on a nest of tinsel "hair"

Kim Ricardo from Laquer Studios built this crazy pink wig with roses and a Guadalupe.

Thank you so much to Elrod and Mayra for putting on this great event, with so few lowbrow art gallery around I'm so glad we can finally go Somewhere Else.
