    My "Suicide Squad" Experience

    It all started when Amanda Valdes and I were lucky enough to get the attention of the film’s PR team. It was a complete surprise to get that email! We’ve collaborated on murals in the past, so when they mentioned they wanted us to work together on a Suicide Squad-inspired mural, we started brainstorming right away. I knew, though it was hot in Miami and I was 6 months pregnant, that the piece was going to be perfect fit for us. Amanda and I dove right into the project full f

    New Beauty Line Developed in Miami Wants to Make Your Hair Smell Delicious with Hairgurt

    Murals pop up on the walls throughout Wynwood all the time — especially in December. Two months ago, artist Diana “Didi” Contreras revamped the wall outside of the O. Ascanio Gallery on NW Second Avenue with an image of her typical doe-eyed girl swimming in a sea of yogurt, bananas, strawberries, coconuts, and acai. That sea represents Hairgurt, a product that is made by a company headquartered in Doral and manufactured in Cutler Bay. It was was developed by Alcora Group, the

    Sunrise, Sunset, Sunshine State Pleasures Coast to Coast

    Hollywood: Sunrises and sensations Recently, Florida’s low-key Hollywood has gone, well, Hollywood. The 2.5-mile brick Broadwalk and its historic open-air bandshell have been rejuvenated. October saw the kick-off of the bandshell’s new free concerts featuring Latin to Conchy-Tonk -- and the opening of Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort. Inspired by Jimmy Buffett’s 1977 hit song, the Texas-sized resort stretches from the Intracoastal Waterway to the beach with 17 stories, 8

    LEAH Arts District

    It's amazing how identities morph and take shape over time. From a little patch of warehouses and thrift shops (with the occasional cafeteria sandwiched in between), the (Hia)Leah Arts District is on the cusp of ushering in a major culture shift. I follow several artists on Instagram and decided that I would have to find this small parcel of land to explore today. Unlike Wynwood, I was seemingly the only unofficial person there – to the extent that more than one business owne

    Time to Meet Miss Didirok

    I had the great pleasure of meeting not only the sweetest artist but the most humble as well. This shy but SICK artist from Miami has a lot to show the art world. The real question is whether the art world is ready for her? With big dreams of one day having her art ending up in the history books for her out of the box technique but yet whimsical style, her art career began when her self esteem wasn’t all that great but also realized she wasn’t the only one going through this

    How Wynwood Earned Its Street Cred

    The untold story of how Wynwood's graffiti propelled a forgotten industrial swath of Miami into one of the most coveted tracts of real estate in America. At the moment, Wynwood is an unlikely, and therefore exciting, mélange. The line out the door at Panther Coffee, once the dominion of the young, scruffy hip, is studded with property prospectors in slacks. Ducati is opening a store up the street. Two new condos are slated to break ground half a block west, yet there’s a clut
