After six amazing weeks in West Palm Beach, I am finally back in Carrboro, NC. And I have catalogs of the Escapes and Revelations exhibition at SECCA to give away to my friends and supporters. The catalog has pictures and art statements of all the artists that participated in the show, and a super powerfull essay by curator Wendy Earle. If you want a signed copy of the catalog, send me a DM with your address to mail the catalog to you. Thanks 🙌🏼❤️🎨✊🏽

I want to tell you that in my dreams
I can fly across across the sea
and the distances are very short
and nobody dies trying to cross
my dear love I wish you the best
the best luck in the universe,
maybe I will not see you again
but tomorrow will be an amazing day.

Finishing the 5th week of the New Wave Art Wknd Artist in Residence Program and after finishing successfully a mural project I decided to start a new painting, and in the meantime will be finishing all the paintings made during this journey. It has been amazing to push the painting practice beyond limits. Amazing painting experience !! ❤️✊🏽🎨🙌🏼.
