Cause It's Time To

Okay, so if this is my only post this week I apologize for that, but hey, it' a busy one. So here's what you probably need to know.

1. Wilco is playing tonight in London, and we've got a dirty lookin' team concert posting up 5th row center. So I'll be sure to let you know how that goes. In the meantime I'm checking out all 70 Wilco tracks on my Ipod while painting/finishing assignments.

If you're there, I'll be the one sitting next to the girl who's way too beautiful.

2. A professor looked through some of my work today and with some enthusiasm directed me to Syndrome Studio, and I'm disgusted by how amazing their stuff is. Check out their reel, it's mindblowing. My new goals are to buy land with (2) horses and several dogs and work for Syndrome Studios.

3. I'm doing a new series of painting of my favorite musical ladies, as I usually stick to the gentleman, I figured it's time to switch it up and expand. Usually I would keep this a secret, but I want you all to look forward to it. So, in this order, you can expect:

-Amanda Blank
-Gina Turner
-Karen O
-Erykah Badu
-Emily Haines
-Zooey Deschanel

Pretty sure Karen and Zooey are already sold.

4. Speaking of sold, Art Fusion 4 was a huge success. Thanks to everyone who came out, supported, chatted, and all that goodness.

5. Have you been reading the Vagrant Optimist's blog? Or checking out the Epitome? Cause if you haven't you're missing out. It's all very entertaining, educational, and inspiring. So, the blog is here and the website is here. So, now you know. Don't sleep!

6. There's an awesome band that you probably don't know yet, and they are called The Dudes. I feel like, although I am not an FM96 listener (even at all), that radio station was built for The Dudes and they don't even know it. Every track on their new album "Blood Guts Bruises and Cuts" is awesome. It's given us a couple theme songs, especially 'Had Enough of It'.

7. There's a track on Maddecent that's Snoop and Kid Cudi with Diplo on the beat. Try to guess who the weakest link is? I won't say, cause the point of this blog is to point out dopeness not wackness, but here's a hint...it sure as fuck isn't Diplo.

8. Remember that song Top Qualified by Haiku D'e Tat and Quannum? I'm doing a painting series of all those dudes, but unlike the Wu Tang, you can get just one if you want! Look forward! I'll be displaying work at Grooves in April, so go check em out! And don't forget about my portfolio.

9. I have a ton of commissions and freelance biz on the go, get at me if you'd like anything done. I will do it all!

10. I have an awesome girlfriend and I'm writing this because she might read it. And I hope she knows that she's awesome and inspires me to be great every single day. She makes me feel even better than smart rap does. Anyone who's enjoyed a piece of my art in the last 5 months pretty much has her to thank.


Until next time y'all! Peace!
