Why must he cry those lonely tears?  Why does it have to be so hard?  You can see the pain in his face as she walks out the door.  You can see the love that he has pouring out onto the floor.  He bled for her.  He fought for her.  He loved her.  He will always love her…

BY MY DOORSTEP

11″ x 15″ Marker & Pen on Watercolor Paper

 

 

I know you’ve seen these little birds on a canvas already, but I had to finish off the sketch.  Not to mention, I think these guys are pretty cool and I love the song.  So, I hope you all have a good day and if anything is bothering you maybe it really isn’t that big of a deal.

PINK WINGS

9″ x 12″ Digital Image

 

 

I like to think that I try to find the best in everyone and everything.  I do not judge right from the get go.  i believe this helps me to see the beauty in certain things that other people might just pass by.  This picture is from what some might call a run down area.  I just love the colors and the simplicity of the place though.  Some of us don’t need a mansion and a boatload of material wealth to feel right.  If my friends and family are happy and healthy then I am rich in life.

Jr. Gong

12″ x 24″ Aerosol on Metal

 

 

He is arguably one of the greatest reggae musicians of all time, but that is not so surprising.  Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley is the son of Bob Marley.  It is obvious that the king of reggae has passed down his talent through the blood lines.  This music must endure.  It is the music of the people and who better to share it with us than Jr. Gong?

JOHNNY

11″ x 15″ Drawing on Watercolor Paper

 

 

Johnny was a good manWoman hold her head and cry, ’cause her son had been shot down in the street and died, from a stray bullet.  Woman hold her head and cry. Explaining to her was a passerby, who saw the woman cry. Wondering how can she work it out?  Now she knows that the wages of sin is death, yeah! Gift of Jah is life. She cried, “Ah-um, I – I know! Johnny was a good man, I – I know!  Never did a thing wrong, Johnny was a good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, Good, good, good man”, Johnny was good man, she cried – she crie-ie-ie-ie-ie-ie-ie-ied!

ROSARIO

22″ x 24″ Aerosol on Wood

 

 

My wife thinks that I’m making art with celebrities on it so that I can end up meeting them.  That might not be a bad idea.  Thanks wife.  It’s not part of the plan, but if any of these find their way into a celeb’s hands it couldn’t hurt in helping the cause.  Rosario is my second choice anyways, so she’s got nothing to worry about.

OLIVE LOAF

24″ x 48″ Mixed Media on Wood

 

This one is kinda cool.  Not that it is one of my favorites that I have made so far, but because it is on video.  Yes, that’s right.  Click here for the time lapse:  Olive Loaf Time Lapse.  Olive Loaf is brought to you by Kevin Lee Studios.

PINK N PURP

12″ x 12″ Aerosol on Canvas

 

 

You’re so pretty with your all pink clothes ‘n’ your all pink car.  I hope the purple feathers in your hair get you real far.  ‘N’ that your tiny little doggie in your big pink bag, a purple bow in its hair in the photo you tagged.  But don’t get me wrong, I like purples and pink.  It’s just stereo types about colors that make me think.  Are the colors that she wears what bothers me?  Or is it that the media has to let us all see?

MORNING SUN  (SOLD)

16″ x 20″ Aerosol on Canvas

 

 

Lots of people flock to the beach to watch the sunset.  I think I’d rather watch it arrive.  It brings the light of a new day filled with something different to us.  I love the morning rays peeking through the window and watching the dust particles that dance on them. There is no doubt I could spend everyday out in the sun.  It’s almost summer and soon we’ll get to spend more time together.

SORRY

He gave her the only thing in this world that means anything.  She tossed it on the floor like a dead squid.  Now she’s mad at him for being mad at her.  She said she was sorry.  He believes her, but wants to let her sweat it out a little first before accepting her apology.

3.  It’s a magic number.  Yes it is.  Well, at least in a Jack Johnson song it is.  In my life it is too.  Part of one of my nick names has 003 in it, because I am the 3rd member of the Husslafunk Mob.  That’s right, I’m in a mob (don’t try to google it, we’re off the grid).  I’m also the 1st of three brothers in my family.  The third time is a charm.  Of course there is more, but I don’t want to fill the page :)

BIFF

8.5″ x 11″ Digital Image and Drawing

 

 

Biff.  A great name for a bully.  Who can forget the movie Back to the Future and the character Biff Tannen?  He was the classic bully and was brought to life by actor Thomas F. Wilson.  There’s a piece of movie trivia for ya.  He also played Griff Tannen in Back to the Future II and Buford “Mad Dog” Tannen in Back to the Future III.  This isn’t a drawing of him, but he sure looks like a Biff to me.
