Quick Tokyo Recap

Tokyo was an eye opening experience, and like my trip to Kenya last year, one that was totally unexpected. I’m grateful for life experiences that open my eyes to the vastness of the world. There is so much more to see and I look forward to what’s to come. If you ever get the chance to visit Tokyo, I highly recommend it. It’s one of those places you can’t go just once and I’m already plotting on making my way back.

The Hood Galleria x Buy Art Not Drugs Art Exhibition: 7/8/2023

 

Imagine having such a strongly curated collection of art that you could put on your own exhibition showcasing it and... people will come?! the hood galleria was a moment. 

I told Jerome that next year my art will a part of his collection, and I mean that.

here's to getting back to creating more than just "merch." 

I miss painting.

I miss experimenting with new mediums.

I miss creating just for the sake of creating.

2023 will open new doors to creativity. 

strengthening my discipline and focus.

5 months remain...

Happy Father's Day to the Best to Ever Do It!

 

Love you dad. <3

 finding comfort in vulnerability

truly opening yourself up to feel all of the things

regardless of the outcome

feels like a bit of a superpower

so many people are afraid to peel back that extra layer and truly expose 

their heart

I find comfort in knowing that I am capable

and unafraid
