Between creating art i do this kind of stuff. (Random, I know.)
Still really proud of this piece. It's for sale if you want it. Make me an offer. "medula OBLUEgotta" inspired by Matisse's blue cut outs.
What they talking bout? They ain't talking bout nothing.
I've been working on painting signs from my favorite spots in Houston and I'm almost done with the one in my profile pic and I'm super proud of myself because it actually looks good.
Nightly couch hang ritual. Yes his ears are cleaned now.
Well shit. I'm itching to get back into photography. And that just means more money I have to spend.
NEW: "Moving Off X: An Open Letter from UK Journalists" UK political journalists: "Twitter was, for a long time, the place to be for UK politics. We believe that time is now over... "We have taken the decision to move over to other platforms, in particular Bluesky" docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Was gonna make some enamel pins out of this but I got so busy at work. Might have to do it tho ..
Finally got my first commission for art in about 2 years. WE'RE BACK BAYBEEE
I showed Idris this video and he went in his room, shut the door, and went to sleep....
My pfp is of a staple back in Houston that I miss a whole bunch. Them fried biscuits and the wing dinner with fries was my go to back when I was 250+ lbs. I'm gonna paint this one day and it's gonna be put up in a museum.
One of my fave episodes of Bob's Burgers is the butt worms episode. Won't be elaborating further.
During my nap yesterday I dreamt that as I was cutting out my locs that had grown super long (I cut my locs a few weeks ago because they were really unhealthy) but there was A HUGE TARANTULA LIVING IN THEM??????
The worst thing about your off days is when you don't set your alarm but you still wake up like you're going to work.... Like damn, let me sleep in!
I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor. I spent my childhood behind barbed wire. My parents lost everything. 1/
I'm tired boss... "medulla oBLUEngata" One of three pieces in my "Heavy is the Blues" series. 30x40 acrylic on canvas Inspired by Henri Matisse's blue cut outs. #art
I'm also on a really random side quest that's gonna take like 3 years but if I can do it I'll finally make my sister, niece, and nephew really proud so that's all that matters.
While I had to step away from the nft space not only for my mental health but also to make sure I kept a roof over my head, I noticed a lot of people saying i quit or gave up. I don't understand that. I needed to make sure I was good. Because no one else would. Anyway. I'm still creating.

I have to admit. Bluesky is proving to be just a regurgitation of twitter with all the threats and bigots and racists. Was hoping for a safe space finally. Kinda why I dialed it back on here. I get enough of that shit on twitter.
I think I’m gonna finish this painting tomorrow which is a “derivative” of the ai generated piece to the left. Get at me if you want to reserve it.
It’s wild to me that people get upset for people protecting Black women in a time where we are the most harmed in the world. If a callout warrants you to act like this I don’t know what to tell you fam.
This took me entirely too long to do with no model or anything. Definitely gonna get better at making my own models.
