Ok, my previous years hiatus is just about over. It’s mainly just been a break from certain technologies (phone/internet/email/..this blog). Well, that… and some other things.
Keeping a lot on the DL these daze.
But the creating hasn’t stopped (even during that week that I tried).
Been busy, busy, busy at the new* studio/workspace/lab/honeycomb hideout every night.
more soon…
* new, as of last year

Oldie but goodie flick I took of my homie Depoe One in action on a mural 20 feet up…
Depoe… on a ladder, on scaffolding, on cynder blocks, on a picnic table. Brooklyn, 2009 FTW!
And speaking of Depoe, if you’re in NYC today check out my homie Depoe’s show opening today…

If street artists want to co-exist and be accepted by the graffiti world, there’s an old graffiti rule that they should understand. “DO NOT GO OVER OTHER PEOPLE.” ESPECIALLY if it’s bigger, better, or old. Sure those tags and those filled in “throw up” letters DO make a nice looking background to your street art. But that graffiti was there FIRST. It might not seem like much, but those letters were done on the spot with risk of arrest, possibly by someone from another city/country , a king, or even a RIPed writer’s last artifact. Undoubtedly potential historic pieces in the graffiti world. You CAN NOT go over them. Go BEHIND them? Hmm.. Maaaybe? ..If it’s done respectfully. This is a pic I took in Bushwick back in 2009..
Posterboy and Aakash Nihalani playin by the rules.

Weather it’s up the back fire escape at a stranger’s party or sneaking/breaking into buildings and up the stairs, I always seem to find my way up… to the rooftops.
