I hail from a place called the middle. I grew up trying to exorcise all things silly or serious as they meandered and mingled in my imagination by engaging in unprotected doodling. Originally from Chicago, I was sculpted by South Bend, IN.

apparently its your birthday today. SO happy birthday, its been a while since we have chatted about art also, i would like to show you recent works of mine if time ever permits.
Oh and as for how the arts are going.... Herron is one hard school. I love my 3d class and drawing, but 2d class makes me want to shoot myself. I hardly have time to go out and have fun with the homewrok, cept for the weekends. But I'm hanging in there, it'll be worth it. :)
Oooh! Nice work. Yeah, Kris Lewis is amazing. Hard working immigrant from poland makes a damn good artist. I'm jealous that you got to see him in person.
This is the show South Bend and Club Fever have been waiting for. Your boy Breon is opening up for hip hop legends ONYX on Aug 6th @ 8pm!! This is my first chance at rockin Club Fever so I need all my people there. Presale tix are only $12 for 5 of the areas hottest hip hop groups, Dj Strictnine, and Onyx!
Hey thanks! No it isn't gouache, It's acrylic, pastel, oil and marker, on paper. Yeah I was experimenting, using the same methods I usually use now just thinner and on paper.
Hey!! Yes...I defiantly would like to see you out tonight. I work at Buffalo Wild Wings right next to McCormicks until sometime between 10-12. So if you want to stop in tonight and get a beer or something you should. If not I will just catch up with you later on in the night. Call me and let me know what's up though, 574-250-3805....See Ya!
No :( I was planning on it but my parents are going to be in Mexico that week so I'm gonna meet them there. Bassnectar's going to be in my backyard! So sad...
