Michael Uhlenkott & Alan Smart - Masters At ‘Work’ Artists, Mixologists, Tiki legends Swipe for details @muhlenkott @names_smokey 
 Part of my Masters At Work series of portraits. Michael and Alan’s home is a work of art. An exquisite, note-perfect rendering of the Spanish Colonial Revival, 1930’s LA aesthetic. But hidden in their basement is another extraordinary world… The HaleKahiki, their glorious, joyous, equally perfect tiki lounge!
I had such a great time in their company and felt like we could have talked for days, they really are both absolute *Dudes*! I really hope our paths cross again next time I’m over. And that really was an EXCELLENT Mai Tai Alan! If you are, or you know someone who might be, a good subject for this series then feel free to get in touch! If you’d like to see the full series you can find it at my website in the personal work section. andrepattenden.com/personal1/mastersatwork Thanks to Mike @hanttula for helping to hook us up.
And Jill @thespidersinthewebb for the company! #portrait #portraitphotographer #masteratwork #tikibar

We stepped into HulaHula, Torrance Calif and were immediately impressed by the music and welcoming atmosphere. This lovely unpretentious little bar reminds us of one we might find in Hawai’i.

Sold~ beginning a new chapter in my line as the vintage well dress up. I had a good run with finding original fabrics but it’s hard to sustain so I’ve been working hard to source high quality rayon fabrics for digital printing. Super happy with how this beauty came out.

Missing my wonderful father today, who passed away on this day in 2020. Such a lovable and sweet dad. I wish we could talk about family, astronomy, UFOs, poetry, physics, and music today.

We had a wonderful time at Echo Island Night, the Spirit House, on Sunset in Echo Pk. Our fave bartender/waiter, Nick, running the show! Tuesdays at 6pm!
