Ok, ok, ok, I don't know if anyone is gonna read word vomit, but here it goes. I know I've been super absent in the DA community and if anyone cares, I been missing it too. I don't remember what was my last post here to be honest, nevertheless I been drawing here and there whenever I get the time. Lately I been posting more on my Instagram than anywhere else (so if you want to see what I been up to, take a peep), but imma try to catch up on here. DA was the first place in the interweb that I ever posted my art. The love I got here motivated me to keep on drawing and painting and I will never forget that. So all mushy stuff aside, I will be posting here more often. Anyways if you guys are interested in checking out the chicken scratches I've done since the last time I was here, check out the insta and follow up :)

Hey what’s up kidz!? I don't usually write many journals. Mostly because lately I barely have time to do any art. This journal is just a bit of venting and asking for a bit of help. Welp, Here we go! I recently moved to Houston from Columbus Ohio in search for a better job. I been doing the art thing for a while now, but I haven't been able to find a steady job in the art community. When I lived in Columbus I found an amazing art culture in the city. I was able to make many art friends and although I didn't find a steady art job, I was constantly having shows, painting walls, and assisting to art events with my friends. I was happy but the money struggle wasn't cutting it for me. 

I made a decision to move to Houston since my family lives here, and my dad told me about the moneymaking opportunities they have. Sadly none of those opportunities are art related. Long story short, now I'm a oil worker. I work in the oil fields 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, with two days off. I make decent money but this whole thing is killing my soul. I will be 26 in 6 days and I'm afraid of getting old and not having my shit together. The pressure of being a functional human being in the eyes of my parents and society, is just the icing on the huge shit cake I call my life. The isolation that comes with being new in town is not helping my art drive either. So since the Internet is infinite and full of knowledge I ask you guys, Do you know of any art events in Houston? Any spots where breakers and poppers dance or hang out? Any places where they play old school Hip- hop? Any graffiti or street art galleries? Anything? Believe me, any information will be greatly appreciated and will help me get my creativity flowing again. Please help me not jump head first from a sixty-foot tank. Thank you in advance and don't eat Cadmium Yellow paint.

P.s. It doesn't taste as good as the other colors.

I am still heart broken that my dream of seeing and painting in this building will never happen. All the legends of graffiti, All my heroes have painted there. People from all over the world use to come to that place to leave their mark. It was the Mecca for street artist. There was pieces in there of artist that have died and have left nothing else in this world but their name in those walls. Is just disappointing and upsetting that all of that doesn't amount to anything when money comes to play. I guess money is more important than art history and culture...
