Show!













These are some pictures from the show we just had. It was curated by an amazing artist (Tory Camp.) She put a lot of time into the planning and I was more than happy to help. The last picture is of all three of us (Jen, Tory, me) after we had painted on the fences and placed the paintings onto them. It was a long night but so work it. Thank you Tory and Jen. Enjoy.

Getting Things Ready




My good friend Tory gave me a great chance to take part in a show she was curating. It was an incredible experience. Here are some shots of some of the pieces I put into the show. Enjoy.

1st Feature in a Mag

This is my first time being featured in a magazine. I am realy excited for how it came out. The article talks about my history involved with street art and the event I am planning on April 26th at Drew University. It is a muralist and urban artist event and it should be a great time for people to learn and have some hands-on experience with street art forms. If you would like to purchase a copy you can visit: www.grindahz.com. Thank you for your support.


Quick Update






Here are images of some designs and pieces that I am currently working on. Enjoy.

The Space



These are some final pictures of the new mural in The Space. It took about a week to create mostly because I was waiting for paint markers and other materials in the mail. It is relatively tall and wide and you can tell some of the scale by the first image. It was great to start using my new background patterns and build ontop of that. It creates a powerful effect. Also, the crest is from the University (Drew) but I took it and changed it a little to be more modern and more detailed. The two faces of women are from the late 1950s and early 1960s. As with all of my mural they tell a story. I never go into the process by creating the story of the mural, but there seem to be subconcious choices and images that together tell a short part of my life or what is going on in my mind on an emotional level. It is a new experience every time I finish a mural to see where my mind and hands took me. Now that this project is done I can start to work on my own personal ideas. Stay posted. Enjoy!!!

Tons of Updates

I have been working really hard the past few days to get a bunch of designs/concepts/patterns done. Last week I took some time to attend the K-Spray NYC Launch for both Logan Hicks and Sixten's new shoe. It was a great event. Over the weekend I took time to draw up some patterns and think of a couple new concepts. Here are 6 stencils: 3patterns and 3regular stencils. Enjoy.
This is a stencil of Icarus based off a famous painting.
This is a concept of a Cuckoo clock which I will be using in a variety of different ways later on. Stay Posted.
This is a stencil of a Cow with an ambulance + on its face.
Here is a picture of Sixten and I at the K-Spray shoe release in NYC. It was a fantastic show and Sixten and well as Logan are incredible stencil artist.

2nd Clown Painting

This is another clown painting I did for my family. I am teaching myself how to paint on canvas. The best part is mixing colors. The worst part is waiting for the paint to dry. Enjoy.
