Base Walk
These are from at least a year ago at the Oakland Army base , in fact it was about a year ago today. I haven't been back since but, it's an amazing place if they haven't already demolished it completely then you should check it out.

Memoirs of one city
At times we become so discouraged in our work that we almost want to give it up all together. Weather it's because we don't think others appreciate or respect what we do or that we don't think we are getting the proper recognition for all the hard work we put into our art.I myself have my ups and downs when it comes to this situation but, coming home after a long day of creating images and seeing what i've done makes all that "getting your name out there stuff" not so important at times
I am happy to just be able to create

My Burning Heart
I held on to this side of the candle for years now and today i decided to let it go. I am a sentimental cat but, since i have been liquidating like crazy and don't plan on leaving much behind, it was nice to relish in the scent of my side of the incomplete heart.
