Music
remember in the film "just friends" when ryan reynolds is having a private moment singing a song but mortified when he's caught singing it.well pretty much that's me minus the mortification .so any music that would make the person in the car next to me admire my courage for publicly listening to it and unabashedly singing all the vocals.(ex. two occasions by babyface). although to be completely honest, if i'm positive nobody is around i'm secretly listening to led zeppelin, mystical, bob dylan ,and leonard cohen,

About me: One day I saw something that made me realize you and I and all the rest of us are universally connected. This connectedness is as much about the things we don't have in common as the things we do. Whatever will be discovered, realized, or even considered from this concept will only bring about a greater sense of purpose and overall clarity to our lives. Without going into what I saw that day, I’d rather mention the following 1. me. me. me. 2. you and i 3. us and them 4. ALL
Who I'd like to meet: you and whoever else i'm meant to.
hey man! congrats on the upcoming show. whenever you get a date set could you send the info my way so i can get a hotel room up in chicago? anyways im working on a piece right now...letting it dry currently.
thanks for the comments on the paintings really apreciate it, my latest little project is a book that im working on , I will be binding, and sowing a illustrated version of my rendistion of the portrait of dorian grey, my son also loves the story and I thoght it whould be great for me to give hime an original, of a great classic. along with a painting.
Robert - here's a blast from the past...this is me, at the tender age of 16, I had recorded and released an LP album, wrote some of the songs on the album...ahhhhh....days of long ago, bittersweet they are...
Thanks for the add robert, I am a painter who like you just picked up a brush one day and started painting no school or training, I dont know if that sgood or bad all I know is that I love it eat sleep and dream it, I dont really know many artist and whould appreciate any advice possible. thank you Gonzalo R.
Robert, seriously, why are you not sharing the fact that you are in Juxtapoz magazine? The article is very classy and well written. CHECK IT OUT EVERYONE.... page 112 +
Roberto, thanks thats is edward g robinson in a publicity shot for the movie little Ceasar. a peice i"ve been working on for a while. your backgrounds in the hooker walking remind me of the scene in leaving las vegas where nicklaus cage is so drunk he thinks he is still talking to the hooker but she left in a taxi. and the lights look blurred out. but you don't know if its the alcohol coming out off his breath or the dessert heat at night that distort the lights. any way its right on it gives the same feeling of desolation in the big city. when is your next show? keep me posted I would like to meet you and see these in person.
