I have been allowed the opportunity to have befriended many good people. My friend,sister and brilliant artist Carlleena Person ascended to the next plane. She was ultra dedicated to her craft. She was and still is one of the few individuals who actually inspire me! She left behind a legacy which will most definitely transcend beyond the Queen city! Carlleena, you will be sorely missed!
On Friday I had the privilege of attending Carlleena's solo show. The show as great and the turnout was also! I was able to give Marcy, Carlleena's wife,two pieces of art I created as a gift. I had a great time even though it was bitter sweet though.
I was also part of a show in the Soda city that focuses on Feminism and consumerism. I overstand it had a good turnout, which is always a desired response for artists who attempt to live off their art.On Saturday, I woke up at 5am to get prepared for some billboard painting. Yeppers, my Izms of art collective members and I painted a billboard live in 5hrs. Well, I painted my side in 5hrs and Unzo painted his in 5hrs as well. The day was spring like. It was hot yet somewhat breezy. Our famo came through to holla at us and give some support also. I know if Carlleena was still here she would've came through to show us some love. We completed what we could in10hrs. We were working under serious time constraints!!!
