Soliloquy by Leigh Salgado - LaunchLA

Last Saturday night my friend (Thomas - also known as T-Swoto) and I went to Leigh Salgado's solo show in La Brea. We had a few drinks before so we ubered there. To our surprise, right as we open the door, there is a bar pouring free drinks. T-Swoto and I immediately approached the bar and got  Little Sumpin Lagunitas. Right as I walked up the stairs into the gallery, I saw Professor Hansen (looking very handsome) and his beautiful wife, we had a nice chat and then entered the gallery.

The gallery had three little rooms that were packed with people. One person really stood out to me. He was wearing a bright red suit, had a hat with a feather, and had wild shoes on. He looked like he was the God of Art. T-Swoto and I walked around viewing the different pieces of work. It is amazing how precise and detailed her art is, she must spend hours - no actually days - working on each piece. Her process involves using an Exacto knife with a feminist touch.

After the show, T-Swoto and I went to Roscoes Chicken and Waffles (it was like 5 mins away!). Roscoes is one of my favorite places, when I was in high school I would drive over an hour once a month just to eat it. I always get the #1 - 2 waffles and 2 pieces of chicken (dark meat of course) and a side of mac n cheese!
