I have an idea to one day open a bar, a bar unlike any other bar ever before. This bar will be unique because it will staffed entirely of strippers, both male and female. I adamantly declare that it will not be strip club; what makes my bar different? My clientele, stalkers! Stalkers of my staff to be precise! My staff will invite their stalkers to the bar, making it the spot for the best stalker stories! We’ll have best stalker awards and prizes! Mixing proper cocktails is not a necessary requirement because stalkers will drink whatever is poured for them, and like it! They will also pay any amount deemed fit to charge, and like it! Don’t like it? There’s the door, stalk someone else! There will be a separate menu and cover charge for any voyeurs who just want to watch all this splendid abuse! I will be rich beyond my dreams!

3D graffiti doesn’t always have to be letters, it can also be shapes, the graffiti is felt by its signature curving and twisting flow. Your eyes send images to your brain so when you see abstract shape, your brain will try to find imagery to reference it too. You see these shapes and they feel like graffiti, you see these colors and your brain tells you it’s floral, just using a simple brush stroke your brain references tiny flowers and tiny flowers then gives the impression of a large structure. That’s what it’s like walking in my Graff Garden.
“It’s all about the dolls baby!” If you remember that line, you are probably older than I am and know what the “dolls” are. The term faded many years ago but could easily serve as an inspiration to today’s culture that is openly obsessed with pills! I may or may not admit to my own personal research into this genre but I may admit to maybe have heard, or possibly been told, that during these pill popped “journeys”, one can finds themselves completely connected to everyone and everything around them. This connection, so I hear (wink), is based on love and an advanced feeling of enlightenment where creativity, colors, emotions flow freely. Are the Dolls bad for you or are they a reminder to how repressed a nation of “free” thinkers we have become?
Butter makes everything yummier doesn’t it? When you taste something delicious it’s almost always because of butter! This piece is slightly different than the rest as it’s more digital than the others. It has pieces from other paintings comprising it and those elements, like butter, add to the overall flavor, a deep and rich flavor, it can almost fly! Imagine that, a Butter-fly!

Self Portrait gives my viewers just a small peek inside a single moment in my creative consciousness. I welcome you inside the chaotic maelstrom that I go through everyday, just about all day long. You will find that my brain, amongst other things, is always moving in full color and awash with surreal images. One can easily find fierce dogs barking, while making no sounds at all, held back by sexy, leather clad women trying their best to keep order in my inner world! This is a moment in a world that guides my images, despite all the madness, noise, or lack thereof I feel fortunate to be its keeper.
“On the NY transit line…” time for some fun. The drawing for this piece, like most from this show, is over 15 years older than the painting! The Engine No. 9 title comes from the Black Sheep song, which was never the inspiration for the art; it just popped up as I neared its completion. I love when random things in life work themselves out. Someone told me (I cant remember who, Nerelys or Gabriela) that I was manifesting. That’s a powerful thing to hear, ponder and then believe. Because of the spiritual and creative seeds I have planted in the universe, the universe was now giving back, and that feels like a wondrous train of prosperity bearing down on me! I wish I could write like I paint to really describe how it all feels!
Inspired by South Beach’s Memorial Day “festivities” of 2011, I began to wonder, when did having a weapon become part of the nightlife fashion? Are guns the “must have” accessory on the list right after socks or a nice tie? If this is the case, shouldn’t we start blinging them out? Golden gats? Bedazzled Kevlar? I say, let’s embrace the summer’s newest statement; let’s bring back the hip, leather hip-holster, by Armani! I find guns to be quite sexy and not just because of the power they posses, but also because of their lines and perfect ergonomics; maybe they are the ultimate fashion statement!

A very good friend of mine* used to send random surreal texts to his wife, for no reason at all, one of them read: “Beware the Man in the Pink Suit!” I found that one-liner so completely hysterical it stuck in my head, and so, I pondered further… Who is this man? Why should you beware him? What is he up to? Is he plotting something; is he up to no good? Whatever this pink clad man’s agenda, perhaps he should heed his own warning before tampering with traffic signals!
*Jamie, we all miss you, rest in peace and in love.

A very fabulous painter friend (Mr. Popa, aka Conan) once told me that I’m always in control of my paintings and that I am the “master” of my works, which I kind of knew already; I think it’s a Virgo thing. He on the other hand, is the exact opposite because when he paints, he is the slave and his painting is his master. That really blew my mind. The painting is the master to the artist? Even now, as much as I understand it, I still find it hard to fathom. It’s a control thing that as an artist, I’m not disciplined enough to relinquish. My paintings and I and to some extent, you, the viewer, all dance together simultaneously. We form a trio but who is leading? Who is in charge? I don’t know if I’m the puppeteer in this performance; I only know that if I am, I am completely content in that role!

The cards don’t lie; it’s people you can never be sure about! A “tell” is any physical reaction, behavior or habit that gives (tells) other people (players) information about your hand (situation). Wouldn’t that be something special if applied to real life rather than a card game? We should all work at getting our “tell” telling abilities to be as sharp as a sword, one which we can use to defend ourselves from all the lies surrounding us; lies in advertising, politics, corporations and even from bosses or lovers, (especially lovers) since we allow them to get so physically and emotionally close to us. The popularity of Poker has brought the “tell” into mainstream consciousness; we should all become skilled at discovering The Tells!

Mettle is a word we hardly hear in every day life. Dictionaries define mettle simply as “courage and fortitude; an inherent quality of character and temperament.” It seems there is a basic lack of mettle these days, where people took struggle, discomfort and pain and turned it into something positive; Song, food, dance, art all took some kind of mettle. Today is all about internetting, digitizing and socializing completely in solitude. I hope the children of tomorrow will change that. Maybe today’s youth will find new forms interaction. Maybe the children of tomorrow will forge their own kind of mettle!

Le dije a la luna, me duele la memoria.
De un Amor, que regale, mientas sangraba tus cicatrices.
Corrían las gotas por mi dedos, a besar la lengua azul de la playa.
Devoraste mi sed.
Seguía rascando mis venas pero nunca le encontré un pulso.
Tu pedestal de arena, difumino las yemas de luz que nació en mis ojos.

Over a decade ago, with the help of my beautiful friend, Gina, I set about my first photo shoot. There was no set, bad lighting and little knowledge of my camera but I did have Gina and what we captured, albeit poorly lit, were some very sexy moments. Moments that would take me this long to finally complete into something worthy of displaying and showing. As I have often said, it’s the really difficult pieces that you grow and learn the most from and this piece is just that. Had the photos from this shoot come out amazing I would never have ventured into incorporating Gina into the graffiti swirls and shapes encircling her image. Gina, the poorly lit image forced me to learn more photoshop, enough to save her. It’s always better to try something to possibly gain knowledge than to not try, using lack of knowledge as an excuse.

I want to dip in your eyes.
Feel the pedals on my feet.
Peel my skin so you can discovery me.
Mixes seeping through my pores.
Your scratches itching on my skin.
The bass palpitate my bones.
Feeling your beat fester in my veins.
It’s an iridescent high better than my virtuous maryjanes.
I Hide in your wicked smile, chained.
