About Me

I’m a street artist that draws with the most accessible of supplies to try to inspire others to utilize public spaces

My most common thing ,wherever the location is, is drawing a bunch of free hand circles that make a 6 petal flower shape and writing “Overlapping friend circles bring a community to blossom.” It is a design that makes for great collaborations…either color mine in or draw something huge using them as a grid/background.

The latest project has been concentrating at creating in ugly/unclean/neglected areas as a means to draw attention to them to get them clean, hop scotch is a pedestrian favorite, Good luck circles, and occasionally overtly left leaning political art.

I grew up in foster care for the most part of childhood…got a bad taste in my mouth about capitalism after working at a timeshare company and have been seeking creative ways to use my art since them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Make friends with interesting people, find people to collaborate with, learn where the cool spots are for me to create, learn about events/businesses/npos that are doing cool things. I want to create thousands of square feet of art in as many cities as I can connecting artists, art organizations, creatives, and patrons all over the state...until it gets hot here in Texas then I'm heading north

Interests

For pretty much my whole life I've been intrigued by numbers, letters, and lines...They seem to be the most accessible of elementary building blocks...the tools that allow us to make meaningful marks.
