we found this in the dark corners of our art studio.
big ups to whoever made it~

late nights

So I've Been Busting My Ass
 Like A...
 Bitch.
Straight up?
I've been slaving myself over these works.
Deadlines are bitches.They'll screw you over before you even finish.
Then they'll take your wallet and leave in the morning.
Bitches.
My projections are coming along swell,
but i might have to start again
on account the video fucked up halfway through projections.
We'll see.
I started a new piece.
At first it was just out of boredom,
but it grew.
I don't want to show too much.
All i can say is,

It's going to be sick~

violence

Violence
"Violence"
(size is to be measured, for now "fairly tall")
Acrylic and Inks on canvas

This piece embodies the ideals of violence.
It serves as a tool of communication, a way of reaching out in terms of this issue.
The main issue is street violence and this piece echoes words of wisdom
through the words of Buddha.

Borrowing from Dhammapada,
In black:
"but the fool in his mischief forgets"
and he lights the fire
wherein one day he must burn
fire from heaven shall strike

In white going down:
"violence"

You don't have to agree with the religion.Just take in the words of the artwork.

moving on and...

Freezer Door
At least, it's what I think it looks like.

progresso

Black And Blue
Day after day I'm painting.
If I'm not painting I'm drawing.
If I'm not drawing I'm thinking about painting.
 It's an endless paradox of unsatisfied creative achievement.
Repetition is the essence of nature.
Repetition is the essence of nature.
Natural is habit.
Habitual is instinct.
Moving is progress.

Of Life And Such

Life was quite simple when i was a kid.
All i wanted was that Voltron toy.
I slept early every night, 9pm on the dot.
Woke up early on Saturdays to watch cartoons.
I didn't worry about money or a job.
I didn't have to keep looking over my shoulder.
I didn't have to always watch other people's backs.
I didn't have so many bruises and scars.
I use to think everything was great.
Nothing could go wrong.
I was wrong.

I grew up~

Wise.
Almighty.

Busy Hands
Lately, words and letters have been dominant in my work.
This has yet to cease so it seems.
I'm busily working on projects,
trying to refine my techniques along the way.
Video is almost halfway.
Damn things are proving to be quite puzzling.

I was able to get a quick collab down with a friend.
Fairly pleased.
Worked through another calligraphy piece.
I should spend more time on them, too rushed.
I painted a small piece for a friend.
It came out really well.
Just a bit bigger than A5, small and intimate.
Currently working on a new canvas.
Finished up the bottom layer, loving the smokey look.
Looks like a storm up close.

color for those

When I Use Color,
It Comes Out All Funny
Friday.
Late day at the studio.
Hot chips and one dollar drinks.
Double rainbows and colorful pinatas.
Packed trains and stupid conversation.
Confessions and jokes.
Strangers and strangers.
Friday.

Did you notice the Meggs signature on that hat?

Right In The Hipster
A sketch i did last night.
Suck it up princess.

writing letters

Letters To Myself 
I've been really pushing my handstyles lately.
Perfecting, learning, making a habit of.
The brush is slowly warming up to me.
When i'm bored out of my brain.
I tend to do silly things.
Drawing on myself is one of them.
I scare a good handful of old ladies with them.

Eye Take Photos
When I'm not doodling I'm taking photos.
I don't like to think of myself as a photographer,
but someone who likes to take photos.
I take a photojournalist approach most of the time.
I never really like to set up shots, they always end up looking

set up~
