.25 (A 1/4 of)

Last Friday marked my 25 years of existence. Yeah, 25. The line crossed where “young” is no longer in the picture. Where one asks how old you are, hears your response then replies with, “Oh, 25? What are you doing with your life? Do you have kids, a job, dreams and aspirations? And wtf are […]

Dom

Three months ago I made the conscious decision to move out of my parents house and into a pad with two of the chillest dudes, including Dom. We go way back from our PUC days, but it seems that he’s always been one of my go-to’s for shooting whenever the creative juices are lacking. Whether […]

Field Trip

Dars, Sabrina, Scott, and I have been meeting up consistently sharing our creative efforts and current projects while going on random tangents in hopes of inspiring and motivating one another by holding each other accountable through constructive criticism on our current creative endeavors. It’s hard for us to meet up due to work, school, and […]

Quote
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.

Dilla Month

I can go on about the legendary James Yancey, aka J-dilla, and what his music has done for me. Almost every artist relevant today who’s been inspired by him has sampled, remixed, or has made tracks solely to pay tribute to him. Including artists such as, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Pharrell, B.J. the Chicago Kid, […]

Last year Jennie went out on a Mission Trip to Egypt, in which she asked me to create an image that incorporated text for fundraising purposes. Sometimes I surprise myself on my poor attempts of cheap typography by using clip art through google and free fonts. I commend and highly respect typographers/hand letterers alike by […]

DTR

A few homies and I decided to go thrifting out in Beaumont. Walking aimlessly around the clutter after pretty much giving up on digging through dusty racks and shelves for a come up, I decided to ask a sales clerk to open up the glass case underneath this “collectibles” labeled counter top. Found was a […]
