Orphan.

Orphan.
I drew a version of this on the DS game Art Academy. Kial and I were sitting and waiting for the fireworks to get started in Takoma Park. She pointed out a balloon floating away, up to the sky to never be seen again.

I had a music video cover that Olan Rogers did called The Balloon stuck in my head and also a little sad girl.


while heading home from the subway, I was blasting Sigur Rós and thought of the idea. What if the balloons were her parents? It's sad, I know but so pretty at the same time. But, I always try and find the pretty in sad moments.

Btw, It's so cool that Sigur Rós had a big part of this idea. Thanks Alex for adding the idea of the girl reaching for the balloons.

Jesus.

Jesus The Magician.

This is a quick drawing I did after watching a Rowan Atkinson comedy bit on Netflix. Also, this drawing is very good practice, for I've been drawing a comic with Chris.

Root Beer & Bromos.

I've been practicing a lot on drawing and trying to draw new and different things. I feel like I'm not that great of an artist to start a comic and work on the art. It's very difficult, drawing is very hard. Chris said I should draw us has Chibi characters. It wasn't really that hard and I feel like I'm getting the hang of this drawing thing and drawing things from my mind and not copying.

A Quick Photo Session Before Therapy.

I've really grown to love Dupont Circle. It's got a lot of pretty things.

The Train Ride Home.

After a long night, my family of friends and I
head back home on the red line train towards Glenmont.
Everyone can hear the club music coming from
the short Latino man behind me.

The train operator reminding
the tired and drunk passengers
about the next stop ahead
over the hissing speakers.

This is home. 
This is my new home, 
rebuilding what I've always been missing.

I wrote this after The Pride Parade.
Chris, Kial and I were heading back from The Rocky Horror Picture Show at E Street Cinema.
This was how I felt and I sent it as a text message to Chris and Kial.

Meme.

Before.

After.

Genius. Haha!

Sprites.


I've been playing a lot of DS games and I've always liked the simple 16-bit art. I remember in High School I was friends with the Geek Squad and our their down time they would re-design sprites from Mega Man.

I thought I would add a Sprite to my collection of art work.
