Ficlets

Inspired

Born 8. 5. 76, raised in Santa Ana Ca, Graduated high school in 94. Excepted scholarship for athletics to a college in Salem Or. wandered around the United States looking to find my purpose in life. Stumbled much like anyone has, ups & downs odd jobs and thick skin have opened my eyes to ART !
Summers were hot like lava, we made that trek down to the beach via the Riverbed. It was a dry stretch of cement, debris, shopping carts, rusted car parts, the occasional homeless person sleeping under bridge to keep cool in the shadows. I could see the spray paint on the walls of the riverbed. Large block lettered graffiti claimed rights to that hood. The freedom to create art anywhere and on anything. I will not let anything keep me from creating art.
Freedom is what my soul has always longed for, now that I have deciphered it and embraced it I can utilize it.
I must say that it’s my turn to show the world how I see my world through my art.
