Home Cooked Masterpiece Vol. 2

I dont usually like to brag about how much fun I have painting and partying, but sometimes you got to spread the good word. These Home Cooked parties w/ DJs Flo & Jonesy are amazing. I even started a new style of live painting where I invite the crowd to paint along with me. These paintings truly capture the energy of the crowd.

Click here to listen to the DJ set from the night. Go ahead... enjoy.

So much has been going on this past year that its been hard for me to keep everyone updated as I would like to. But thank God for the homies and their artistic talents as they've lended their awesome talents to documenting parts of my journey. Last year I did an interview w/ Quawee on in Dumbo and year later here we're back for part two. Check it out below:

Harmony

This was a commissioned piece that was fun to do because of the theme. I like to think I took it to a spiritual place that represents the balance we seek to attain between the various energies within us.

Much love to G Man and the good folks at Concrete Cakes. They caught up with me at the new shop ReInspire Brooklyn for this latest feature.
