bone couple crops damaged dire early extent fell fruit hail later leaves meant next plants possibly reports situation storms
We were in dire need of moisture because some of the plants were bone dry. We're still evaluating what the storms meant to the crops because we had reports that pea-size hail fell later in the morning.

changed clear couple felt life loved meant moment questioned realized silly
A couple of years ago, right before I made 'Down to You,' there was a moment when I questioned what I was doing and if it meant anything.

bring discussion good matter people photo
With 'Inside Out,' no matter how good the photo or how big the pasting, people will like it or they won't. But what you see through any of these actions is that there's going to be discussion and it's going to bring people together.
art blocks changing everyday few fills home life online people piece time walk
Most of the time, people look at a piece of art online when it is just a few blocks from their house. Changing the way you walk home everyday fills life with surprises.
art build built circle gallery helps himself production slowly trust
For me, the gallery legitimates the art production and helps build collections. I don't think an artist should do everything by himself forever. I did it for years and then slowly built my circle of trust.
artwork strips
Even when I do really big pieces, I do them strips by strips - so you have to paste, you have to involve people. It's a whole process. And I like that. For me, that's where the artwork is.

A really important point for me is that I don't use any brand or corporate sponsors. So I have no responsibility to anyone but myself and the subjects.

I've always been so surprised by how people interpret my photos in context.
art final great image means people role street understand
The Internet doesn't always play a great role for art, especially art in the street, as people take what they see for the final image of it. But the most interesting thing about street art is to see it for real, to understand what it means and where it's displayed.
