Not feeling 100%


I recently caught a cold which has hindered my creative process but before the cold I was able to complete a piece for my cousin who gave me an idea of what she wanted and I hope she ends up liking the results.

Eh in no mood to clean


I like the creative mess that my room has become, because I feel the reason why some let their place of living become a disaster is they have immersed themselves in their work. Which is what I have done by being so caught up in my artwork that I do not feel the need to clean. When people clean they clean with a purpose of impressing themselves or others. Yes tidiness is sometimes nice or necessary, but when you have put yourself in a position were messiness outweighs tidiness you must embrace it. It surely does depend on the person but people who are messy are more relaxed, fun spirited, laid back, lovers, and well the clean freaks are these ridiculous uptight snobs that see the slightest stain a permanent blemish to their life. Like I said it surely depends on the person, but that is how you can break up some of the clean versus the messy. It is a new stereotype that I want to create rather than how the old one use to be, so pass it on. I would love to hear your take on your messy beautiful lifestyle, because even during chaos does order come into place.

Really happy about how the background colors turned out the way they did.

I did a smaller painting like this but wanted to make it a bit larger. Think I'll take another photo or at least one that complements the piece a little better.

What a productive day



Finished work on some business cards and posters for the Visionary Kings. Took a bit of time but extremely happy with the results and hopefully can start spreading the word about the vision that will soon come. Also I think the poster looks like a movie poster and thinking of printing a version like that. Either way they will soon be out for the public to purchase along with some others that I hope I can work on.

A Working City

In the city every day there are people that come and go not knowing a single person by their name, face, or that they even exist. Our city’s have become machines with the people as the dark black oil keeping them going. I cannot say for certain that this is true that the city’s have created a new society today that isolates itself from the rest of the world, but has cause for concern. These high rise building growing more massive everyday making the average person feel less welcome and more inferior as the machine grows. Its beauty at night, with the lights shining out is a cover for its cold and dark interior. A place were everything is run to a specific time or schedule. As people fuel the machine so that it pumps out decay, never finding that balance to what was once civilization. It decay’s everything around it and beats daily. Our lives are always going to be apart of the giant and we will then because of it become the giant itself one day.

This piece I wrote a long time ago, but every time that I do read over it kind of gets me motivated to break free. I'm not talking suburbs either, I'm talking about that great outdoor freedom people once saw before civilization hit.

Little Intense

So this piece got a little intense, but sure did have a fun time playing with the painting process. Wanted to do something with the frame so I suppose this was the best way to incorporate it.

I'm up way too early

This was a piece that took me into the wee hours of the night and happy with the results. I honestly think that I'm up way too early though, because I can feel my eye lids trying to kick them down closed. Also need some suggestions on the frame color because I was thinking about painting over that as well.

True Colors of a Flower


Finally able to frame this piece I did and it looks awesome. I'm really happy with the frame and look forward to selling it to a good home.

Well this is only the beginning.....

and I'm hoping since this is only a beginning that an end will not come. I suppose you can call this a mission statement that what I have to say is what I will accomplish. There is no knowing what it is I will exactly do, but as long as I'm able to inspire one person and get them changing the world in a positive manner I know I have done good. Not only will I be a person of drive and inspiration, but a man of change. With whatever success I'm given, I want to make sure that it is followed by the hope that I get closer to my goal. The main goal being advancing our society into something that we can be more proud of, pushing man's knowledge, ingenuity, and compassion. I can safely say that I'm nor will I ever be a man of religion, because I have already learned the basics from religion, and now it is time for me educate myself on the advanced material. To be the person I'm now I grew on my own, I think I went through my midlife crisis at the age of 9, and really started to become an adult by 19. I still have much to learn and I hope that you can teach me as well as discover something new about yourself . Only with collective minds and a world working in unison do we have the potential of making this beginning never ending.
