As an artist 

My appreciation for beauty 

Right out the door

And glued to it

To whatever it is for me that is it

🖤❤️🖤

I look

i desire

i want to shoot an entire perspective on the subject

i want it to be as raw as possible

i want to take it to any and every setting

i want to share it with the world

🖤❤️🖤

giving the subject a voice

even if at times misinterpreted 

maybe it is a voice that the subject will walk into

maybe it is latent voice – waiting to get out

listening to my subject as they speak not a word

but be

being who they are

not a word to me

but words freely flowing like cherries that escape the bowl in the fingers of admirers and the hungry the same

building the credibility for it

a subject

subjects

to the lens

my interpretive soul

for you

another

interpretive soul

souls

all 

🖤❤️🖤

different takes in the arena of interpretation 

is it on the wall

is it on the floor

is it on the table in a book flipping pages viewing gages rearranged to a topics display for the opening and closing of a frayed or wound tight soul giving way to a softer or hard pallet that beat colors to the irises of many before you, many at the same time, and many yet to come

🖤❤️🖤

i am an artist

🖤❤️🖤

style and design 

given to the resources i can find

still poverty dictating restraint

not that I would give to any such restrictive flickering in my mind

but resources for the opulence that art could be

thus escaped my grasp for projects journaled and parading in my head, expanding in every interactive journey

🖤❤️🖤

interactive

it is not just with people

dogs are my family

and by dogs

Devil Dogs

dogs that are leashed

cats 

people who foster civility, even though we fail

my family too

my people

my people are trees and plants that feed me air

oxygen that rids the soul of despair 

when it is clean, fresh, and living by a stream, or a body of moving water

🖤❤️🖤

i am an artist

waiting for the world

whom i have given all my love to

reciprocation

in AUGUST

🖤❤️🖤

is it not for the heartbreak of so many before me

especially the meaningfulness given 

in colors unwrapped

in appointed spaces 

likely before not noticed

🖤❤️🖤

find in the artist’s soul

originality given

i tried to share it

walked into several galleries 

museums 

stores

ALL SAYING THE SAME THING, WE ONLY WORK WITH SO AND SO, … WE don’t take solicitation from the street, …. I HAVE SEEN EVERYTHING, YOU HAVE NOTHING NEW TO OFFER. 

The few that ventured a peak into the work

They had changed their interaction to the hungry artist – wanting that discovery to the world

🖤❤️🖤

Oh, wow, i never, how did you…. my secret of how i work is safe for the most part

🖤❤️🖤

i started creating again

1999 

in the dungeons of suicidal ideology 

in the forced isolation of oppression

in the anguish of victimization 

in the arena of criminals recidivating (my word – verb) 

psychiatrists telling me it is not against the law to kill yourself

telling me after several failed attempts – this is the way you do it – cut into the arteries 

🖤❤️🖤

creating again to retain my entity of love

creating so as to beat the monsters/criminals who were sanctioned to paint me with their hideous brushes 

lies and other crimes against me their PIGments 

🖤❤️🖤

drowning 

I have been

with art as maintenance therapy

originating styles from the sources of poverty 

what could i get my hands on

🖤❤️🖤

Stain Art 

One line designs

RIP art

Juvenalistic acrylic paintings

🖤❤️🖤

Eclectic Collective Love Collaboration 

Resurrected Love Reclamation 

And more

And more to come

So long as I breathe 

so long as i find resources

Backers

Sponsors

Winning Lottery ticket

Luck

🖤❤️🖤

Individuals who are the world – of beholders

🖤❤️🖤
