I can not express to you that I feel. Packing up the studio yard salon actually. It’s a movie don’t want. It’s a movie. We don’t have a choice about. And I don’t know that I’m ever going to have a studio that feels so at home even in a new home down the road. We’re being forced to sell our place because we can no longer afford the huge increase that they recently put on us of a extra thousand dollars a month. Nothing about this feels good. It feels hard and fearful and awful. I generally don’t have any hope.

I just feel very deflated and incomplete. I just stuffed my entire life‘s work and into a Bike box. At least it’s really heavy.

Eat the rich.

My mind is like my desk. Full of ink.

Feliz Día de los muertes

I hope you enjoyed today. For me it’s a special time of year. It’s the Day of the Dead. We celebrate our pasted loved ones on today.

I miss all of them but I know they are in good places.

A roll of film about life’s

It is a beautiful life. You get to just be in it some times, it’s so rare to be more than just a concept. Snow days give me perspective that I often need.

Health, family and art might be the perfect cake mix for me.

Life

I made a promise to myself last year that social media would never have more of me then my website. So if it’s there then it’s here but not vice versa.

I got this idea of captions in photos from an artist I know. She is brilliant.

Just been one of those deep and hard years but it is ending beautifully. As much as it can.

I go in these walks everyday to reset my mind.

Sets me up for the day. Helps me clear all the negative energy I start off with from the night before. It is inevitably. The weight of the last day is handcuffed to me. I do my best to free it before I wake up in the morning. Recharging the battery.

These broccoli things are everywhere. And they litter selfishly. 😂

But I enjoy basking in them. New day and new adventures to learn from and paint about at night.

Make something cute? Why? What is cute? Honestly, what am I meant to think is universal cute? A puppy? No thanks.

It would be nice not to see the arrows coming over the trees but they still hit even if you can’t see them coming.

No puedo ser el modelo. I honestly just don’t want to. I have no use for staying in lanes. Some days I’m PG and others I paint X. It is the nature of the beast that I am. Wild and left in the cold to paint on the sidewalk.

Not sure anyone wants to be an idea. It is hard enough to be imaginary.
The best part of all of this is how much is undiscovered and reimagined.

No necesito que las piernas se metan en sueños.

Busy shop life

It’s crazy how much is inside the shop right now. Maybe 150 bikes to repair.

A start

I was in the myst of my mind resting and made a toothbrush.

This all feels like an adventure I stumbled into. A planet made of islands. Two beans rolling into the sun on a scavenger hunt.

join the scavenger hunt.

I’m trying to reach out from the void and ship off cards, please join.

We went on a walk today in town.

So much going on, on a sunny day.

Also I developed a 24 roll today, so enjoy the Bike shop.

All in one..one and all.

tchau,

Jaws

riots

Find me by the water
my toes cold from the edge of the wet

the pinky toes resting the eyes of the next painting on my mind
madness

best part of making
toys of a child

Rage
time
hurt
madness
the brush is too honest.
The action is the riot.
I don’t feel the “cash money word.”
I am never the DJ from Do the Right Thing.

I am the tool of the paint and ink
never the narrator as it happens
but the narrator as it ends
post motion
The soul of me wants to rest in a pure ocean of fluid making.

Processed With Darkroom

The thing about growing as a person is you only really see it after it happens a year later mostly. I feel in my new year of life I’m learning a lot more about control of my inner thoughts. I’m stopping from just arguing about the simple bits, “just keep making kiddo.”
