Universal Greeting to ALL,

   I would describe my art style of a blend between tribal and graffiti with a twist of geometric shapes elements and patterns. I AM a Lefty free-handed drawer, drawing only from my imagination, in order to enhance it, I would then redraw it digitally. I take pictures of my work along the art making process and on an average piece, it could easily take me up to and more than twenty hours to get it just right. When I think it IS done, I'll take a moment, breath, take a step back and just allow it to be. Seeing it gives me aGREAT sense of satisfaction of freedom as I see the evolution of it expanding reach to new heights and horizons as "this marathon continues". 

   Because I was able TO RECIVE a lot of love, support, and assistance from people who believed in ME, I was able to get to where I am currently. I look for ways to pay IT forward by sharing my artwork and life-story of being a survivor. My mission today is to advocate for Mental Health Awareness through showcasing my art when I participate in local, national, and international exhibition of theme events/venues. The goal is to suggest that we ALL need to learn how to STOP existing and START living, do not isolate and instead find ways to practice self-love self-care being an active participant in “this thing we call life”. Being Honest, Open minded, and WILLING to reconnect WITH myself and others in a healthy, positive way, being the creative being that I AM, I will allow it to move me in such a way that it will add to my fuel and determination to create, getting out of me, the AWESOMENESS that God has put in me, on display for OUR enjoyment! Much LOVE and blessings always.

BE WELL ~ LIVE WELL. as we grow and GLOW... PE@CE B UNTO U and yours.

Thanks for reading my BIO.  <3

Statement

   I draw free handed and my unique style of art I create is a blend between tribal, graffiti, and a twist of geometric shapes and patterns. I mainly use black and white as my base, ink pen, pencil with eraser along with old school copy and paste, with scissors and glue. I use new school techniques to digitally enhance my work as I redraw and recreate my original pieces. Some of my art has special features created into it, that allowsYOU THE VIEWERto engage with it.

   Follow the black and or white lines to see where it leads.

   Some of my inspiration includes listening to music @ wefunkraido.com, Roller Skating, traveling, watching movies and Anime, as well as playing chess at my local chess club in Aurora Colorado. I admire other creative beings that can make graffiti, murals, portraits, and tattoos very well because their art including of the level of detail IS AMAZING, OUT OF THIS WROLD. I appreciate anything with a motor and wheels like Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles, and Trains. Plans that fly high through the clouds, and things that ride on top of and dive deep into the ocean. This world itself including the people in it, all kinds of walks of LIFE, like the different kinds of birds, animals, and plants. I definitely have a passion for the stars and planets within and outside of the multiverse.

One of my Favorite quotes:

“ALL I AM IS GREAT, TO RECIVE ME, IT STOP AND START WITH I AM LOVE “

~DJSims

 Peace and blessing always... Later.
