Formidable (For Me Dah), 2012 acrylic  ~4.26 m x 7.62m
This is my first mural and is located on Shannon Street, in San Francisco’s Tenderloin 94102. Formidable (For Me Dah) recounts my father’s formidable 30 year career in the US Army, from his start as the first Black commissioned officer to graduate from The University of Texas’ AROTC in 1961 to his retirement as a COL and Chief of Staff of The United States Army Medical Research and Materiel Command in 1991.

Agatha Christie, 2011  36cm x 28cm acrylic on canvas


“I like living. I have sometimes been wildly,  despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I  still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. “   -Agatha Christie

This is John. Simply put, he’s a good dude. I first met John (he went by Johnny at the time) when we were both 17 outside of an all ages hardcore show at a gay bar. Over the years John has proven to be one of the most sincere, magnanimous, and energetic people I know. He’s also a talented musician, more specifically a talented front man. Having briefly, by default, found myself with lead vocal duties, I can assure you that shit is not easy. Especially to do it with the easy confidence and charisma that this geek does. I think John responded to Stay Focused Bitch, There’s A Lot Riding On This  because he’s seen some things during his days on the planet and understands that there’s a lot riding on everything, whether it’s work, non-work, making choices or making connections with people. Time is tight.
