thoughts

Id rather use my time painting canvas, creating artwork that will last, then bull shit'in around marker coloring stickers all day. Stickers - blk & wht. Its nice for a change to work on artwork that doesn't necessarily have an expiration date like stickers do when they are subjected to weather and buffers. I could give a fuck whether my canvas work sells or not. I''ll still be up at 5am painting and drinking and listening to music all the hip kids dont like.

oh no you di'int... as they say

-Who are your favorite artists?
*my friends. Ticky, El Toro, Goest Face Thrilla, Arks, Roger, Bob Will Reign, Werms Two, Feral Dog, Robots Will Kill, Swamp Donkey, CZRVII, Soma, Girafa, i cant name them all. Some people are just people yaknow, but like their whole life is like some epic retarded art like my friemd Tim. I think Tim is my favorite artist.

-If you became super rich tomorrow whats the first thing you would do?
* go to the dentist

-Hahaha! OK, What are some other things you would do?
*uhh... go to wawa and buy a shit load of cigs, get a car and a motorcycle. Probly get like a shitload of paint and invite my friends over to paint the house id buy. I dont know yaknow. f i was super rich id tell all the main fools i chill with everyday not to work anymore.

hello

You got that Christmas money from grand mom and now your gonna freshen up your paint and supplies right. - Get your shit from ILLADEL .
Dont over pay for supplies and paint. Dont over pay for shipping. These sites offering free cans with the purchase of 10 cans or whatever, fuck that. Cheaper and Faster from ILLADEL.
-Seriously, look around, check out other online stores and you'll see what im talking about.
--and before ya think i got something invested in Illadel, or i got hooked up for saying this, or its my buddys store or something - it aint. Ive order'd from them a few times now and am just impressed with the prices and how quick the stuff gets to my door

music 2sday

Rarely do i find music i like. I feel as though im doomed to listen to the same rubbish till i die. Yesterday i stumbled upon Dead Man's Bones. Reading up on it i found out all the music was for some Halloween musical or something that was never made cause of money issues. But yeah, i like this. Sounds a bit different. Reminds me of some weird toned down Arcade Fire or something along those lines. Heres two songs for you to hate on. Remember kids, HATE is so IN right now. So Stay Fashionable.

Merry Christmas

Happy Holidays to ya.
(this photo has nothing to do with any winter holiday, but it was taken while I was out getting some last minute gifts so it will have to do)

Ticky and I collaborated on this holiday sticker pack project. We each did 3 holiday designs and a collab sticker. Limited edition, get em before they are gone for good (and they are going quick so hurry up!)
you can get them here----> HOLIDAY STICKER PACK!!!

@ Art Basel in Miami

So me and Ticky went down to Miami for ART BASEL last week. My buddy Marty cashed in some flyer miles and came with us. We were lucky enough to be included in the amazing group of artists that were asked to paint a professional NBA backboard for the ART OF BASKETBALL show which I might add couldn't have gone better. It was an amazing show and everyone down there that turned that shitty warehouse into an amazing art space did an incredible job!- Curated by BilliKid and James & Karla Murray.



Now i'm not artsy and shit, I don't read artists blogs or graffit sites so i never know what the hell is going on so I had no idea what the hell Art Basel is, and for those of you that don't know either, its a bunch of gallerys from around the globe all leasing spaces down in Miami and having awesome art shows. Everywhere you went there was live painting and show openings and sick partys with free drinks and hot chicks








We had a blast. Everyday was wake up, free breakfast, loaf and smoke cigs by the pool, and then go out and put stickers up from one art show to the next. Every street there were walls getting destroyed with amazing pieces, huge pastes, and every sign wrecked with stickers from not just the local Miami artists and writers, but people from around the world.


.



I met Revok, went to a photo show by Neck Face, Jerry Hsu, and Kevin Long, saw enormous pastings by Gaia, Celso, and Obey, and sat at a VIP after party and drank beers with Cope2. I went to more art shows in 5 days then I have been in 5 years, I'm sure i did'nt see everything there was to see, but fuck it. What i did see was amazing. All in all a pretty kick ass time







I'd like to thanks Hayley & Bill Fickett, BilliKid, James and Karla, Marty, good ole ma & pa, SB & 33, Revok, Mr. Mac, the fine people at US airways, Justin, Billy, Eddie, Andy, Marty, Mark, Landon, Matt, Dustin, Josh, Pat, Sean, Damon, all the people i'm forgetting, and everyone and anyone that has supported, enjoyed, or complimented us on our artwork over the last 5 years.
