The anticipation of leaving this place is driving me mad. Its really strange being in this environment and most people probably won’t get it, but today seems just like all the rest of the days since i got here. Nothing changes, just another day. It doesn’t feel any more like the last day here than it did on the 150th day. very strange. But regardless, just knowing that i will be going home is such a strange thought that it is a point of interest for today lol. Been working up so many projects that can’t be acted upon until i get back. This of course coming from the king of unfinished projects. I swear, the only thing i have ever finished from design to completion has been graffiti pieces on walls and trains(allegedly).  i don’t care what anyone says, graffiti art and graffiti culture have to be the greatest things for the human soul anywhere.

The Madman at it as always

Added some good stuff to the Graffiti Book section. This time, along with some other favourite graffiti books, I added some of the stuff i have used as references over the years. These books were the big shit back in the day, I hope you like them!

I am so close to going home I can almost smell the air. A few more weeks and I will be flying my crazy ass out of this place and back to the place where I belong.  The hard part being finding a job and all that, but I am sure it will come. That and the walls and the paint and the “write my name in graffiti” requests that come at me from all sides. Life promises to be very busy from the second I touch ground in the states. So much has happened in the year I’ve been on this mission. Michael Jackson died, Billy Mays, Walter Cronkite, Farah Fawcet, Iz the Wiz, our economy and maybe democracy its blessed self.  Both my cars back home are on their last legs, my record label is dying from neglect, I haven’t seen my drum machines, my keyboards, my dj equipment in so long it feels like forever. And I am not even going to start complaining about missing the people I left behind to accomplish this. But then, I acquired 6 new domains while I was here. I hung most of them up online and more to come. I got back in touch with some really good friends from wayback in my graffiti beginnings and was reinstated into BBB crew. I scored that interview at miamigraffiti.com and actually put a piece up in a warzone lol. How many of us can say we’ve done that! So I guess I broke even on this one. At least spiritually. I have alot to look forward to when I get home and again, I can’t wait to see you all there.

Bikini City 1990

Yeah, we all start somewhere. Today I posted some of the very few existing pics from my first decade of painting. They aren’t pretty by any stretch of the imagination, but fun to look back on. Wishing I had more to offer, but we were all poor street kids back then and not many of us had a camera or money to develop the film. NONE of us thought it would matter this many years later but here we are and the history is so far gone on everyone that we all wish like mad that we had some flix to offer. There are quite a few from some of the masters of the day out there, but not so many of the guys outside of the southern part of the county. Hopefully the ones I offer today will give you at least some insight as to what we were doing back in the day.
