We had a great time visting the Door 2 Door Adore live painting event at the Portfolio 360 Gallery yesterday. The paint off between Gregory Siff and Louis Cannizzaro was more of a love fest than a battle, largely due to the folks at Atelier360. The have made a great set up that includes a salon and gallery in separate, adjoining buildings. It is a supportive area for artists and art lovers and a large crowd kept rolling through the whole time we were there. We counted no less that 6 professional cameras covering the event (not including ours).

We have been big fans of Gregory's street art for a long time. We love the innocent, bright colors, and the meanings that Gregory attaches to them. It was also wonderful to meet Louis Cannizzaro. A cool guy and brilliant artist.

It was really great to talk with Gregory about art. He is truly 'renaissance' with many different artistic pursuits ranging from street art, to fashion to film. Gregory has shown MELROSEandFAIRFAX a lot of love, and we look forward to watching his career develop. We're convinced he's heading for big things, and we look forward to saying we knew him way back when we saw his live painting sessions~
