new chapters; unending dedication; prologue enamel pins, greetings ๐Ÿ‘โ€๐Ÿ—จ

this is my journey. i’m honored having the chance to share it with those willing to listen while existing in this realm. when i think about it, i’ve walked a myriad of places in search for success through art. honestly i had no idea if any of this would amount to anything. or when. i laughed over the thought what if i knew in high school how many nights i

let it enfold you

i hope that you’ve been well. this is realistically the first journal entry i’ve made on my site for 2021. i’ve been so busy. there hasn’t been enough time to write about all the changes that’ve taken place in my life. i’m excited to be back though, it slips my mind how important it is to keep this site updated. today twitter reminded me how fucked everything is. like in

i painted a mural down the street from where i live.

if you have been keeping track with me online you would have seen i started a mural project down the street from my house. thanks to the brilliant efforts put forth by my pal Jerry Misko, Jerry is someone who has his foot deep in the game for the arts culture in Las Vegas. recently he brought me and several other Black artists together to literally paint the town. painting

the revolving heads.

sometimes parents have a hard time conveying what they want to say. i shouldn’t have to have any family stress when i turn 30. i’m 28. i’ll be 29 august 3rd. of course if the cosmos and my body allows for me to even meet that. or if covid, or yellowstone exploding, or one of the many tragedies to remind us how human we are transpires. it’s all tough cookies.

permanently at work

that’s what it’s starting to feel like. i enjoy it greatly. life is all about perspective. what you make of the situation becomes your reality. you’re not the situation, it’s your actions that define you. 2020 is a strange year. we’re surviving a pandemic whilst ending racism. creators are permanently at work. truthfully it feels like my existence alone is protest. what’s next is i should become more vocal of

learning

thankfully all of this has been an intense learning process. i’m going to be 29 this year. my dad turned 60 the other day. my brother and i called him on a group video chat since he lives in Houston. the united states is leading with covid-19 cases. one thing for sure is this reminded us all of our humanity. i’m doing my part to relaying solid informational findings on

our planet is facing an actual crisis and all i can do is make art and develop websites.

it’s a rather eerie scenario to be in. i spent years mastering my craft seriously in hopes of securing a type of foundational financial gain just to be thwarted by a rather untimely almost seemingly engineered biological disaster. imagine being a full time artist in the panic. the biggest fears for everyone seems to be staring into the uncertainty โ€“maybe that’s met in combination with digesting disinformation helping create distress.

a year in review

without a doubt, 2019 was the most influential year of my human life. it was the fall of 2018 when i woke up in Las Vegas, NV prepared to attempt a new life. this journey was riddled in unexpected events. realistically i had no idea i would even survive out here. lo and behold it’s 2020. the process was insane. for 2019, i quit drinking alcohol. that was the greatest

writing my journey out

is only important to me. much like i’m going to be the only person who toots my horn or promotes my art. i recognize how extremely lucky i am to have an audience and support for my journey through the arts. i have flashbacks to when i was growing up and growing into becoming this person. the places i’ve come from are unbelievable to me. the things i’ve done and
