the yellow wall











Brett's secert to staying tan!

This is another myspace to photoshop portrait of this guy I was emotionally involved with. Takes a slight dig at his vanity (symbol-tanning), bad timing (symbol- sunburn, also he sooo wishes he had a successful product out there. All is redeemed and forgiven by the smiling sun that is the source of his burn anyway.

What I guess I'm trying to say is, you can try and fight it all you want but if you stay in the sun for too long you're gonna get burned (by your ignorance).

Hey Barber I'd Like a Fade Please : 1/5/2009
made from compositeing photos from my bedroom wall with a self portrait.

Stool From Heaven : 1/7/2009


Ladder From Earth : 1/7/2009


Further exploration of what I was getting at in the last post, this ones more biblical though. See the halo above the stool? And the ladder doesn't seem to go anywhere except maybe up a little? You sit on a stool. You Climb a ladder.

Some art projects


Black Man's Money : 1/5/09



As I Try to Escape This Plane : 1/5/09




If I Concentrate Hard Enough Can I Overexpose Away? : 1/5/09
I've been trying to explore space/time again. How an object can exist in one place and move or be moved to another. Leaveing the previously occupied space "empty", but because it was just occupied not really as empty as before. Just bare with me as I fuck with it until it clicks.

"we're all jus tryin to get ta heaven."






silliness


this guy is famous for putting the most straws in his mouth. I am SOOO JEALOUS!!!!! (serious)


um.........I'd eat it



This is EXACTLY why I don't do dreads. So stop asking!

Ode to Dog



This is George. He is a basset hound. He slobbers everywhere. He likes my songs. Hes with the texan donkeys now. He gets so emotional sometimes, but its okay because we cry on each others shoulder. Well we did before the donkeys came into the picture.


this is Justin B. We play Wii. Well we did.

I really like these photos because they show a side of justin most people would never see. I'm a firm beliver in the dualism of people's nature. This darker side is something he readily suppresses, and hates. Which I think everyone is for, but whats he hiding?

this is Dez. Well the bundled up version. So bundled dez.

I wanted to show How dez is seen by me, and by the public. In the b&w hes seen a a rougher darker form defined by his cloth armor, and black skin. Juxtaposed with a white block that serves as a standard of security that strangers judge him against. In the more colorful photo, the flooding of light and closeup on his face display dez and the friendly, life filled person his friends have come to know and love.

I do hope as time goes on dez will be seen more and more in color, and the block will fade away.

been awhile.....







this is tori. we're always in sweat.

I am constantly trying to make her feel awkward, and I think its because shes one of the few girls I would actually want to date. So of course I do my best to create a divide. She has many sides to her, all of which I love. Her more mysterious side, her feminine beautiful side, and her funny playful side. All of which I tried to display here.
