Building stringed instruments (guitars). Painting with no style in mind. Pencil and ink work are always a go to. Tattooing is another artistic endeavor I’ve started. Like NWA said “express yourself” ! Oh let’s not forget about the art of making MUSIC. Last but not least I create art to LOVE
Where do you find inspiration?In my demons. Thru my pain . In the skies day and night. On the streets. In the ghetto. Out where the rich dwell. Other people strangers, the old. The stars. My children. All of my ancestors rooting for me. I find inspiration in my SOUL.
What would you do with $25,000?Invest half into my own custom guitar company, then simply Pay it Forward. And give the rest away to random artists on the streets wherever I’m at in this tight country!
