A shout out to the amazing artists who worked together to create this gorgeous painting at The Coffee Bar in Spartanburg, which is my temporary Avatar for What’s Up Y’all. 

Local design companies are working on a logo for our show right now and eventually we’ll let you vote up your favorite. Stay tuned.

But since our show comes from The Coffee Bar in Spartanburg and this painting is such a signature item for that location, we thought we’d let you see it here on Tumblr and on Twitter and it might entice you to come down to my favorite coffee shop for a real life look.

Thanks for stopping by :)
