Birth of Venus Exhibition

A fellow mate from SVA is holding his very first gallery exhibition in Midtown at the end of this month. I'll be showcasing here with a few buddies of mine - Yoko Furusho and Victor Kerlow.

Stop by and show some lovin'

How can you say no to this?

Legs, legs, legs...

Mais Que Nada

Classic track...with a jungle twist? Gotta love it!



Don't mind Sergio's creepo-smile in the beginning.

Personal Work

Here's a sneak-peak of the latest fashion series that I'm currently working on. My apologies for the boring post today, but it's pretty late and I'm ready to pass out.


In the mean time, check out this dope music video by Cornelius! Thanks to my homeboy Kris for the link:

First and last post of this month (...or maybe not?)

These past 2 months flew by so quick, slow down please! Actually you know what, forget that last bit. Spring, hurry your ass up! It's about 1:43am and I'm slightly tipsy right now, but I figured why not update the blog and post some pictures.

Slowly getting things together for the shop section.

A nice chunk of hair just dying to be hung up on gallery walls. Custom framing is going hurt like a bitch.

I've recently moved into a small studio apt in Brooklyn, which makes my commute to work a hell of a lot easier. No more wasting 2 hrs everyday on the commuter bus. Plus, having a bar/lounge around the corner just makes it too easy.

Photos, new work, and some updates...on stuff?

Hello fellow bloggers,

I'm finally here to update you with some images from the past show @ destination Art Space. I was smart enough to leave my camera's memory card on my desk and so I was left with only 4 shots to take (plus i believe the wine restricted me from doing so). Just want to thank those who were able to take some photos that night and letting me steal them!

Preparation time. Scott Hill's work on the right. Cool fella.

Theres Tokio on the right. If you're reading this, hit me up when you get back from Japan. We have to collab!

Boozin with Yoko and Jan

FYI - Be on the look out for the new "shop" section on the site. It'll consist of prints, originals, and other fun shit, and hopefully it'll be up by late winter 2008. Hopefully.
