I'VE BEEN PAINTING SINCE 1998 IN THE HOUSTON AREA. ITS BECOME A CONTINUING RITUAL TO ME FOR SOME REASON, I'VE TRIED STOPPING BUT GRAFF IS LIKE A BITCH U CAN'T DIVORCE:
MYSTERIOUS FORCES IMPLANTED A SICK & TWISTED IMAGINATION UPON ME... I INHERITED A WICKED TALENT OF GRAPHIC PROPORTIONS THAT WOULD GRASP VIEWERS ATTENTION... I SUFFERED OF DRAMATIC NIGHTMARES & LACK OF SLEEP... I WOULD SEE VIVID IMAGES OF TORTURE AND UNPLEASANT SIGHTS IN MY SLEEP... IT WOULD EVENTUALLY BUILD UP WITHIN ME EVERYDAY OF MY CHILDHOOD.... I WOULD EVENTUALLY UNLEASH MY RAGE & VISIONZ INTO SKETCHBOOKS TO HELP ME COPE MY FRUSTRATION & VISUAL MADDNESS, I WOULD INTERPRET THE SICKNESS, CRUELTY, AND DARKNESS IN THE WORLD THROUGH MY SKETCHES .... SOMETIMES I WOULD SHARE THOSE SKETCHES IN SCHOOL WITH CLASSMATES..... FRIGHTENED & SHOCKED STUDENTS REJECTED WHAT THEY'VE SEEN, THEY LABELED MY DRAWINGS AS AN OUTCAST & MENACE TO THEIR COMFORTABLE NORMAL FAKE LIVES THEY WERE HAPPILY LIVING IN.... REJECTING THE IDEA THAT I WAS INTRODUCING TO THEIR MINDS THE 'REALITY' OF THE WORLD TODAY... AND THE BEAST IN HUMAN KIND.... "TROUBLED BY THIS".... I WANTED TO SHARE THIS WITH THE PUBLIC EYE.... SO I WAS INTRODUCED TO THIS.... I BEGAN TO INCORPORATE MY IMAGES OF CHARACTERS AND IMAGES, AND BEGAN TO CHANGE & MODIFY THE ALPHABET.... TO RIP APART THE NORMS & RULES OF THE WRITTEN LANGUAGE & CHANGE IT COMPLETELY.... DARK ANGELS WHISPERED THE NAME "MENACE" SO I SELECTED IT. I RE-CONSTRUCTED ITS LETTERS PURPOSELY TO CREATE "ORGANIZED CONFUSION" AND TO PUZZLE THE EYES OF THOSE WHO SEE MY WORK, MY WORK IS 'NOT FOR THE AVERAGE PERSON'... ITS INTENDED FOR THOSE WHO HAVE "COMPLEX & INTRICATE MINDS"... FOR THOSE WHO HAVE AN OPEN MIND... THOSE THAT PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND CAN SUSTAIN THE UNEXPECTED. NOW THE TOXIC FUMES OF AEROSOL CANZ ARE THE SEED FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER OF THIS JOURNEY of "VISUAL TORTURE". THE GRAPHIC IMAGES THAT TRANSMIT FEELINGS OF PAIN & FRUSTRATION. INSPIRED BY ASPECTS OF THE CITY, INJUSTICES, CORRUPTION, LIFE, AND EVEN "HATERED FROM OTHER GRAFF WRITERS" EVEN "FUELED & MOTIVATED MY WORK" ....... I THANK THOSE SONS-OF-BITCHES FOR THAT..... WELCOME TO A "SMALL DOSE" OF MY WORK ... ... ... ... ... ............................. Feb 2006 "MENACE" DE5MADRE KREW HOUSTON, TX (If u wanna use this video, make sure u give the credits & put up my name. RESPECT!!)
