lately

i’m completely moved lately with how life is panning out and manifesting. i’ve reached quite a few milestones since we last left off here. some of the greatest times of my life have been had this year. i couldn’t be more grateful and thankful for each passing moment. i kind of wanted this post to be more focused on the photos and the views i’ve gathered. i owe a ton

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

and i’m seeing parts of it i deeply miss. the abandoned naval base, or informational center?, they called it “The End of the World” or “The Edge of the World”. the base hugged the Mississippi River and met a channel that allowed boats to pass from a draw bridge. when i first wandered to New Orleans to start my art career i stayed in my friend’s apartment across the street

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
