Did you know that painting is my preferred artistic medium?
Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time. Time to get back to my roots.

iPads are cool but how many of you can operate a paintbrush?

Don’t be the guy who lives a life full of guilt and regret.
This is a human issue- be a good human
Speak up- speak out- share 
Be on the right side of history- thats never wrong

We are all bearing witness to something catastrophic here.
It doesn’t matter what your religion or race is. There are crimes against humanity being committed right in front of our eyes. We cannot remain silent. I don’t care who you are “what’s at stake” If you have a platform you need to be using it. I don’t care if I lose followers. I don’t care if my page continues to be censored. I will continue to post. “When you know better you do better” you cannot just pretend you can’t see it.
