Who and/or what are some of your influences?
I think that music has had a huge influence on my life and my work. Used to mainly be hip-hop, but now its just music in general. I started writing in '93 with a good friend of mine and graf has stayed a major influence on my art.
What other artists do you most admire?
Its got to be Twist, Doze Green, Tiffany Bozic, Ewok1 and Case2 from back in the day just cause he had one arm and still did his shit. All the guys on Stencilrevolution.com just because they are constantly pushing each other to do better. Klutch, Burn353, Ripper1331 and anyone else that supports my habit.
How would you describe your art to someone who could not see it?
Not very good. I don't really have the technical side of this down yet, so anyone who asks id say it's not very good.
What other talent would most like to have?
I'd most like the talent to pay all my bills on time, and the talent to clean up after myself when im done painting. But those talents are probably acquired at birth and I will likely never be that good at either of them
What do you fear the most?
Losing touch with the people I care about the most.
What is your greatest ambition?
To become successful enough that my girlfriend and my daughter don't have to work.
