Art in the Streets

Definitely the best Art Show Ive ever heard of, seen or attended. It ran from April 17, 2011 - August 8, 2011 at M.O.C.A in Los Angeles, CA. i flew in from New Orleans to check this historic event out in person, many of my all-time favorite artist were featured in this exhitbit, not to mention i was very surprised when i was given free admission..... i hope to see another show like this in my lifetime. thankyou Jeffrey Deitch

HAPPY MARDI GRAS

















































Seems as the years go by I participate in Mardi Gras less and less. Timing of the Carnival season and real life matters have seemed to conflict for me in the past years. Although I planned on just layn low and restn I convinced myself a few hour on the streets wouldnt hurt. heres a few of my shots from the  "Bacchus" & "Zulu" parades and also 1 of my favorite things to shoot,,, the mardi gras indians.

Homegrown





























                                             
                                             TATTOO MAGAZINE     April 2012     ISSUE 272


Honestly its hard for me to write about my works, especially my tattoo art.  Its so hard to ever say whats my favorite or what made it the best or etc because with ever job or session theres always a story or adventure that out does another of the past or that will remind me of sumthin i created years before. With me having over 10 solid years of tattooing professionally under my belt ive done so many big pieces including bodysuits, backpieces and even more sleeves.   heres a better look at a recent custom project that was done on my homie Sean who decided he wanted to carry his city on his back & that took him  all the way to a TATTOO magazine 2 page spread. Congrats again homie
