I find these in the middle images of making are fun to share.
Lots of washes to go.
Always making

The first thing I noticed
Hola Galeras,
New year old me.
Breast curves of dreams left in ash trays. Pencil cuttings from left over inspiration of legacy. I am but the hope of old generations snacking on disagreements. The led is synthesized to be dark and smoky. Better taste for capitalism but less filling.
The toe box of the studio is no longer vast or tight fitting. The silent parts are ment to be sexy but can no longer hold its own weight. Be yet the teeth and not the tongue and taste of us and our endless hungers. Scars and rubber bands holding the peace together.
If I were to bet on me for four more decades I would give you my dreams as collateral.
The desk is covered in half thought up plans, cough drops, clickers, harmonica from being 13 in human boy form, rolling papers and toy soldiers in a band I’m yet to imagine on page. These are my true currency.
Dreaming of smells from smaller mammals.
And yet I roll, I roll and nothing but dust are my new tattoos of the ink tribe. A king of an empty kingdom of returns from sanctuary sanity.
To be and do and sleep others dreams layered in like sandwiches. Run little boy run and tell them “we had cake when we were young.”
Mad man ramble…
Weekend round up
Sketchbook tour
Hola galeras,
I’ve been really busy this last few weeks so I thought it would be fun to look at an old sketchbook of mine.

They are fun to see how my art used to be. I still paint the same but I wasn’t able to spend money on great materials back then. I did a lot with a little. I hope you enjoy.
Sometimes I like to walk it back and see how I used to do things.
Life was so different.
Happy Monday
Hola galeras,
How goes it?
I went on a little gallery adventure in dc. It was huge, much bigger than any show I have ever done. My friend had a spot so I went to show support. It was amazing. I felt comfortable this time in Dc alone. The metro always freaks me out a little. I don’t really know why.

My hope is that I adventure out more and build up my confidence. I have this unrealistic fear of getting lost.
Also I have been working on the last painting of the artbook.
Painter’s tape at it again.
Monday check in
Hola galeras,
I hope you had a nice weekend. It was a learning experience for me. I didn’t know how I was in pain witnessing ICE in DC. I have felt for sometime that we were under attack from the government. It honestly hurts worrying about my West Indian family and friends. I walked with Alec to my favorite Rotti shop and it was gone. They moved away in the middle of the night. My heart was broken. I had been to that shop most of my life with my dad. A great loss exists where that taste lives and all the carnival stories converged.

Did my hair and handed out prints for the up and coming show.
I hope everything works out.
Weekend round up
Hola Galeras,

I’ve been making a lot of art. In the wild parts of my life and it brings me calm.

Feliz Lunes!
Hola Galeras,
So I’m listening to someone play The Legend of Zelda music. Something magical about old video game music in Lofi.
Good start to the week.
Hope your week goes well.
