weighs HEAVY!

So, it's been a minute since I spoke on my solo exhibition. It ended up being a 42 piece exhibition. I was shooting for it to be 50,but fell short. I get really disappointed in myself when I set a goal and can't complete it! The artwork for my last solo exhibition took  9months to create with a total of 45 pieces. With the "weighs HEAVY!" exhibition I had less time (6months) to create the artwork. I got really ill and almost had to be hospitalized! All of that,yet I was still able to push out 42 pieces! All in all though, I hold myself to a higher standard with no excuses allowed! I feel if one wants to be at the top of what she or he does this is the only way to be!
It was suppose to thunderstorm the day of the exhibition but it didn't. It has never rained on any of my solo exhibtions! It has either rained before or after but never during. I believe it never will either. The crowds of people that were expected didn't show up, but I still had more artwork sold than anyone expected except for myself. I actually thought more of my art would've been sold during the opening reception. I have a goal of 80% being sold and I have priced it in accordance to that. I'm going to post pictures  of the artwork in my Facebook photos. If anyone is interested in any of the artwork contacted via fb message or umoja.artofficial@gmail.com .
Major propers to my broshotta Sunday Morning for coming through and setting the vibe with the sounds! The people were in awe of his skills and the music that was being played! My Izms famo was in the house as well along with my sister Carleena Person, who is a dope artist from the queen city! Even Homemade Genius came to the Soda City to support the movement!

Stay tuned for more FRESH and DOPE things to come!!! Yes, there will be more !!!

DEUCES!!!!!
