Gemalism Slate (2012)

I wanted to do something simple that represented my puerile propensity, particularly when it came to my creative endeavors. I’m trying to change the nature of such. I’m trying to grow up. It’s the hardest thing for me to do. I am still five years […]

Sketches: Some Human Form (10/2013)

Mug: an entity that embodies the fluid importance of the idea one desires to express. Example: “I was mad a mug when I found out he stole my bike”. I was frustrated like a mug when I did these sketches. I was trying to find […]

Desk: Late Night at Impact Hub (8/2015)

Late nights in Penn Quarter, just south of Gallery Place are the best. Sometimes I’d stay the night at the office and wake up at 6am and get back at it again. Looks like I was working on a new trailer for a hopeful third […]

Mural and More in Maryland (2000)

This is some dummy copy. You’re not really supposed to read this dummy copy, it is just a place holder for people who need some type to visualize what the actual copy might look like if it were real content.

Graduation from Peabody High School (6/1990)

I think I checked out of high school a few months before graduation. Don’t get me wrong, I loved high school experience… the social aspects that is. After the Christmas break moving into 1990, I was ready to move on. I was ready for a […]
