Who I'd like to meet:
i want to meet me as a kid. i want to compare notes and see if we got things aligned. i want her to remind me to find the innocence in everything again.
there are no coincidences in life. so bring it... extra points if you are a ninja monkey
and my family who i rarely see!!!! yearning to connect with kindred spirits who can help me in reaching my higher self.. inspiration without saying a word... or someone who can teach me how to change the oil in my car so i can do it my damn self... ohhhhhh, and dubya bush and ahhhhhnald schwarzenegger- i got something to say to them >:(
and listen, if you are going to step up, then come correct or don't step up at all. show me your true side because i am beginning to understand what bullshit looks like before the words "hello hi" comes out of your lips.
and cool ass people who go to these events and want to say "wassup?" and bump knuckles:
On SATURDAY and SUNDAY come out to San Pedro for the Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture. I'll be showing some work, as well as live painting out in the sun.
Tix are $7 but if you show your Macy's card, you can get in for $5.
Don't be shy and say "hello."
On TUESDAY, 09/09/08, Rani D. and I will be co-hosting another night of RARE MEDIUMS, where we take over Lost Souls and convert it to an open creative art space. Come out and create, mingle, and collaborate, as we provide you the space and sound scape.
This month's theme is LIGHT.
On WEDNESDAY, 091008, "People Get Ready" is an art benefit show for the Soul Children Foundation, brought to you by The Legacy Project.
i know i said i wouldn't do spoken word anymore.... but with the people putting it together, and for the cause, it's really hard to say "no."
On SATURDAY9/13/08, "Life in Los Angeles" is a group art show, put together by Sonji. Make sure you come out and give her a bon voyage hug as she takes on HAWAI'I. LA is going to miss her!!!

Hey! Hope all is well with you and yours? Long time no hear! I have to say I haven't been using my MySpace account recently as I've been quite busy away from the computer! However, as winter approaches I'll be back in the studio working on a number of projects for the New Year and swinging by periodically to catch up on you. Pass by soon and let me know how things are with you. I do hope all is well. Keep in touch my friend and don't be a stranger! Speak soon.
your page truly rocks and your ART WORK is filled with spirit and passion of the most high! I love your paintings... you are an extremely gifted artist!! GOD bless you and your family! Love, JT
