Movin’ On . . .

 

Life changes and re-arrangements. So many things have changed since my last blog . . . Intense and I have been expunged and I’ve started a new chapter in my life with “Jai”. In this change up I hurt Intense severely (as she so kindly put it). Being as to how I don’t want to put too much emphasis on the negativity that occurred. Let’s just say that in the wake of my “wrong doing” I pray that “Karma doesn’t come back to bite me”. ( I would say my famous break up question but we were never really together).

**sigh** OK, so moving along, me and Jai spent the weekend snappin photos and playin PS2 ( yes PS2 . . . all you rich mawfuckas eat dirt). Any who, I’ve never seen a chick go at God of War II like she does . . . AMAZING! Lol, I digs me some of that, and NO it’s not because of the massage, cooking or consideration of gas prices. (that last one was a joke, lol) . . . hmmm, what else can I mention? OH! She has her own company also, it’s entitled “pabc” which stands for Peek-A-Boo Closet (only for the grown and sexual) lol, I digs the name. Check the logo designed by yours truly:

Another job well done, and another client happy the company is currently hers and her mother’s so yeah, I guess that makes me a commodity. Is it right to make your girlfriend’s mother pay you for a commission if the job was agreed upon BEFORE you two hooked up? . . . I hope so LOL, cause she is . . . and I did. (enter dead silence here . . . queue the crickets)

On top of the logo though, I feel it’s only right that I post some Si’Tography so ready your eyes because here they come! (that was so nasty LOL)

SiTography

. . . Sweet photographic salvation! I’m loving the Rebel . . . needless to say. Pressing forward, I managed to actually cram in a wallpaper for everyone’s use. I call it Tyrantulat, made with Photoshop CS 1 and Cinema 4D 10. My whole aim was to basically make a new piece, HOWEVER, it came out to be more than that. Take a look see.

It’s at 1024×768 by the way and you can click the preview to get the full size for use. The abstracts you see are to resemble two robotic tarantulas on a crawl through the city, I hope heads dig looking as much as I dig creating.

 

Hmmm, speaking of creating, I’ve been doing a lot of that lately, maybe it’s a good thing, maybe it isn’t. Either way, I’m chillin, lettin the river flow at it’s own pace. **thinks quietly**

Man is his own worst enemy, defeating himself before the task has started

Hiatus my Anus!

I’m not getting lazy people, just busy ( . . . that sounds about right). HOW IN HELL ARE WE!? Good I hope. As for me, I’m about as confused as I could ever be (and that’s alot). You all remember Intense riiiight? Good, well she’s still intense and it’s hard to not fall victim to her allure . . . she probably doesn’t know she has it but she does. On top of that, my heart is torn between being in a relationship and being single . . . I want to be with this one, beautiful, priceless female . . . however I’ve done some fucked up things to make it hard for me to do so. I.E.: sleep with another female . . . yeah I’m not perfect and fuck you too. Nevertheless, I want to be with her but I want to be by myself also. Maybe I should follow my own advice in this situation: If you have to decide between two situations then just stay in the one you’re in. I must say, when it comes to relationships, I’m shot . . . anxiety sets in almost. Then again so does the thought of being single all my life.

Indecisiveness truly is haunting me but creativity is blessing me. Last week was SLAMMIN! I made some new major contacts and was recommission by an already established one. The weekend BEFORE brought me a DSLR (Canon Rebel XTi to be exact) and my first shoots with it came this past weekend. I love it! Here are some tiny ass shots for your veiwing pleasure (starring the magnificent Lucki!!! hold your applause):

 

Isn’t she just gorgeous? She’s a longtime friend (since elementary), fuck with her and DIE! . . . **smiles** . . . SO, moving right along. Intense also requested a photo shoot of her son on Sunday. Which went quite well mind you, he’s such a lil man, “if you hurt my mommy, I’ll hurt you”, he says. TOO CUTE! However, I can picture him over my bed with a knife asking me who stubbed her toe . . . LMAO, I’m so evil. I digress though, yeah, then (ofcourse) you know Photoshop came into play:

 

 

Ahh! Creativity at it’s finest! (horn toot). -PAUSE- FYI: This update has been brought to you by the good folks at Cisco (Steve, Jessica & Ebony), Intense and Tiki . . . and whoever else reads but doesn’t comment . . . I love you too! LOL -PLAY- Speaking of creativity, the shirts are doing MIGHTY well. Here’s more to look at:

 

 

Those are the actual shirts people (1 for $20 2 for $30 LOL) Nathan (my former manager and current business associate) copped two and hit me back the next day asking for 10 (that’s a blessing in my eyes). So who am I not to deliver? . . .Then I did up the business card, which was printed by Nate and being shipped now:

 

 

What progress I’ve made . . . I couldn’t complain if I tried . . . **SMILES**

Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

I AYBECI U Lookin!

Wow! What a GAP in time I’ve created!!! First off, let me say SORRY for not posting in SO LONG. Drama induces a lack of will and DAMNITT, lacking will is an understatement for ME! LOL, I don’t handle drama well . . . yet this time I brought it upon myself (don’t ask, I ain’t tellin anytime soon!). What I will say is this . . . Aybeci (ABC) is in FULL EFFECT! We got the first prints from the press last week and I’m satisfied with how well things went . . . now to sell. That’s were I have a problem, why? . . . because if it’s not electronic or for print on paper medium . . . I suck at selling! Even though my art is involved, the public sees the tees as . . .well . . . TEES! And somehow, I’m supposed to convince them that they want it . . . LMAO . . . needless to say I haven’t sold a single shirt! (laugh your ass off now)

 

What do they look like you ask? Why that’s simple my child, check below:

 

Aybeci: Deep Rooted

 

. . . Yes, this is my first clothing child . . . Deep Rooted. It’s an abstract symbolization of the statement: “From the Ground, Up”. Why? Because that’s where we are starting . . . DUH! Lol, there has been a lot of delegation behind which one we should have picked first however.

 

Some more designs below:

 


 

If you all are feeling any of these, be sure to comment and let it be known, feedback on all previews will help us decide on the next print.

 

Ok, moooooooving right along . . . I also finished “Sunshine (No Darkness)”. I love it . . . LOVE IT! Yaya, laced me NICELY with the instrumental and I must say, being calm on the mic is mighty therapeutic! Be sure to hit play at the end and check out my music page on Myspace with production from 100 Stacks and some snatched beats from Dr. Dre and 9th Wonder!!! (LMAO).

 

Thanks for read folks, be safe out there and be true to yourselves, there should be NO doubt as to who you are and if there is . . . do as Ya says: “DEFINE who you are, until you FIND who you are . . .”

 

. . . As a whole, I think we’ll find that we’re fine like a comb, teething early beliefs in upbringings . . . but I hope I don’t raise a heathen
