Art Battles

Art Battles is a great idea and I'm pissed I didn't come up with it. So basically,  artist create on the freestyle tip for an hour as they interact with the people around as well as listening to live music. This takes painting to a new level because it makes it interactive and the end result is directly affected by whats going on around them. In the shot on the left you see ILLSPOKIN MOVEMENT on stage, a great live band with a DOPE MC(caps stressed), and to the right you see Ben Angotti  and Concep painting it up. Leif Mcllwaine won the competition...look below "Obama Is My Homeboy" and "ILL" from ILLSpokin Movement for the winning painter and painting. Also check out WWW. ARTBATTLES.COM and support the cause.

My love of pigeons continues. If you look at older post you'll see some more shots of pigeons that I took in Paris called Pigeons Posing. Most people find pigeons disgusting but for me I know they are definitely one of my favorite subjects to shoot, the options are limitless, they look best in black and white (I'm a black and white type of dude) and to me they  are  very regal regal creatures. I'm not the only one that thinks that, ask anyone that stood in line for Pigeon Dunks what they think about Pigeons. HOLLA!
