We’re having a contest on Hearty. Our Bag Dump contest is pretty simple: you dump your bag and show us what you’ve got hiding. No secrets in this casa, we want to see it all. Then snap a picture (we also accept drawing interpretations and/or a list of contents) and send it over to your hearty ladies at win@heartymagazine.com for a chance to win. This time around it’s an amazing package from Stussy, including the Stussy Ziggy Logo Duffle Bag, Ziggy Logo Scarf, Ziggy Logo Wallet and Zig Zag Bomber. We’ve got you completely covered for the colder seasons. But hurry up and get to it, contest ends November 30.
Hearty writers have to participate. Here’s mine.

These just came in the mail today. I should get the 4 bars inked on me. Maybe one day.

For the past 3 months JK, Jessica, Vincent and, I have been taking painting classes at Gora Gallery’s Creative Boost school. It is the first time I am experiencing with the arts. It has changed my perspective of things. We are all presently working on projects for an exhibition we will be having at the gallery at the end of November. I’ll give you a hint, all our painting reflect us. It’s things that we talk about, wear, do, eat. We are all painting what we love. Stay tuned for exhibition details.

Now we know that Vince likes dudes. And Jeff Staple knows we have a crush on him.

On and Beyond and Derived Thread have both recently updated the look of their websites. Check it out. I hear Weird Beard Luca will be a guest writer for Derived Thread. This should be interesting.

Iron Age’s show last night was great. The Texas band had Vinny come out of his hut to this sketchy venue called Friendship Cove to document the night. The venue is found in an industrial building with a rundown bike shop and someone’s home. I’m bringing him to all the good shows so he can take good photos and who knows we can maybe work on a project one day. I did take my own photos with my Lumix last night, but I can’t beat these. Too ashamed. Check out the rest of the night here.
