My First Show in Chelsea!
I had my first show in Chelsea, and it was actually for my video coverage and photos that I took during the Black Lives Matter protests. I was tired of hearing the rhetoric on the news and from people who have never dealt with police racially profiling them, so I decided to show the side Read more

Eastern State Penitentiary, PA
This weekend, I took a trip down to Philadelphia to check out an artist opportunity in their state prison.

New items Coming to My Etsy store… Soon
I have a load of new items that will be slowly trickling into my Etsy shop over the next few weeks. (I take a really long time to list items, they need to be properly photographed and documented). The influx of items is a result of an outdoor art show in The Bronx’s Little Italy Read more

The Northside Festival, Year 2
I had another successful go at the Northside Festival with my larger works! This year it was for two days instead of one AND they offered free over night storage so I wouldn’t look like a crazy bag lady with my shopping cart on the train. There were less kids at the festival to play with Read more
