For some time now I’ve seen, especially on vehicles, an emblem of Old Glory in black and white with a single dark blue stripe. It baffled me until one day recently, I “Googled” the image and its meaning. Supposedly the blue stripe represents the law enforcement officers who lost their lives in duty. So, flipping the idea on its head, I deconstructed Old Glory, scattering the stars (making them blood soaked), having a dark red stripe (representing lives lost in school shootings), and lastly superimposing a young boy pulling a revolver.

Today I hold many titles: father, partner, artist, rapper, friend, brother, uncle (I could go on, but I won't). Outside of the family I am currently building with my partner, my art is the most important thing to me. My art represents my perspective of the world & this perspective is heavily influenced by culture. Four cultures specifically: Hip Hop culture (I don't mean the music genre, but the actual culture, 'Google' it), African-American culture, Puerto-Rican culture, American/U.S. culture. I identify ethnically as Afroborinqueño (Afro-Puerto-Rican). Now you may be asking yourself what this has to do with my art well if you read the previous paragraphs, everything. I am a naturally gifted artist. I have been writing on walls since the age of two. I attempted art-school, but I had to drop out after a semester due to it being so expensive. Again, most importantly, becoming a financially viable working artist is my goal. Pride, self, worth, and independence is what we are all looking for. So hopefully my art can be of some value in the ever fickle 21st century.
