"A Kiss From Zoe"

**$550.00**

Its Acrylic/Mixed Media on canvas. Created in 2009. Another tribute to Zoe Tamerlis. This was her sending a kiss to her little friend.

_DJ Screw_

**SOLD**

"DJ Screw"
Acrylic/Mixed Media on wood. Done in 2009. DJ Screw was a DJ out of Houston, TX who without a doubt was the pioneer of the music genre known as "Chop 'n Screw". He kept his music underground most of his career and laid out the foundation for other artists like Paul Wall and Mike Jones. I can listen to this music for hours on end while I'm painting away.

Avery

**NOT FOR SALE**

"Avery"
Acrylic on canvas. Created in 2009. It was a busy few months with getting things back into order after my sons birth so it was while until I was able to paint this portrait of my handsome boy. There is something about his smile that captivates everyone.

Ice Cube "checkity check yo self"


Ice Cube "Checkity check yo self"
Acrylic on canvas. Created in 2009. This piece is named after part of the chorus to one of his more popular cuts "Check Yo Self". When this cut came out I was in Fresno, California at the time and it was a hot summer that year. The song was playing on the radio non-stop like a wildfire and I remember it blasting away everytime we would go for a cruise in the afternoons. Everything about the song and that time is what inspired me to use this color scheme.

For the Ladies......Paul Walker

**$70.00**

"Paul Walker"
Acrylic/Enamel on wood panel. Created in 2009. Paul Walker usually shows a similar suave and adventurous like persona that Keanu Reeves does when he does his role in a movie. So I had decided to paint this portrait for the fun of it…..and I knew the ladies would enjoy this one.

..Women..

"Zoe Tamerlis"- 2009 Acrylic Painting
For a while now I've been a fan of the late actress/model. I found that her hardships and accomplishments serve both as an inspiration to my art and as a lesson in making wise choices in life.









"Gloria" Acrylic Painting done in 2008.
The model Gloria is a good friend of mine who actually had been interested for some time in getting a painting of herself done and finally asked me to do one. She is obviously very photogenic and with her creative help I was able to produce this multiple colored piece.
