i graduate in about two weeks time and it feels like another chapter in my life went by in a flash. i am grateful to all my instructors who i've encountered along the way, good or bad. a few weeks ago i went in for my final review to apply for graduation with the school's director. i'd met him a few times and he gave me the usual spiel about applying myself after graduation and hustling for group shows and things like that and basically patted me on the top of the head and said go get em' tiger. it wasn't really what i imagined or hoped it would be.

i'm working on a current series which juxtaposes classical painting with pop culture figures and icons. here's a peek:

popeye x mona lisa

antwuan dixon x odd nerdrum

lil wayne x caillebotte

ren x lady

i'm looking for any shows. haven't really been doing too hot in the pr/socialize sector.
