For many years now I've worked as an aspiring artist here at home in Brooklyn. My focus has covered performance art, fashion, literture, and the creative and/or fine art(s) over the course of time: The most recent addition to my repertoire is Web- Development, and Design.

Having been afforded the opportunity to devote time to the formal study of art of various mediums is a very enlightening experience which has given me an opportunity to meet, and collaborate with successful art professionals of various genres.

This years' "2008" Atlantic Antic Festival presented another opportunity to present my drawings, and paintings to the public along with my DVD e-book entitled, "The Estate (From The Inside Out)."

"The Estate..." is a non-fiction expose which tells of the community dynamics at the grass-roots that lead up to the unlawful predatory lending, foreclosures, and unlawful eviction practices within the community that continue until this very day.

The final copy of the, "Special Edition Preview of The Estate (From The Inside Out)," on DVD is being raffeled off along with a portable DVD Player, and a Fifty Dollar American Express Gift Card. The Final Drawing is slated to be held during February, 2009. The date, and location will be announced.

In closing I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who took a moment to view my artistic creations, and to inpart a few words of wisdom, and encouragement.

Thank you
