So, I'm gonna attempt to paint this this week......... wish me luck lol

*UPDATE*

Okay sooooooooo ... it totally didn't come out as planned lol, or isn't coming out as planned rather. Quincy got totally cut off lmao. And this looks nothing like Bill. BUT! I'm still working with it and making it as ill as possible. I decided that I'm going to do the actual sketch on the canvas versus just in my sketch book and trying to translate it. Makes more sense, right? Anyway, this is where I got so far with it last night/this morning.........

Absolutely stunning. This video ... short film ... is brilliant! WATCH IT!

She Bad.

Remember when I posted that painting that I did called "She Bad"? Well, I decided to put it on canvas (24x36) and I absolutely love it! I'm not gonna tell you guys exactly what I'm going to do with it ... but you'll know in due time ;) *hint* Follow @theArtDistrict *hint* Anywaysssss .... I ended up painting another version of it last night. Hope you like! xxxo

Nudity done Right.

Her body along with her voice is simply amazing.

Having a demo session with Dirty D of Night Runners Entertainment. The song I'm working on right here is "We Don't Wanna Hear It". Enjoy.

Good Company

"Yo, you heard uh Elle Maxwell? That artsy, lyrical chick?"


I was doing some test shots for a photo shoot this weekend. This pose happened to be one of my fav =)

Breezy ... Real Hip Hop Sh!t from Mechanical Dummy on Vimeo.

I digs, I digs! I like the other dude's part better simply because of the tone of his vie (but y'all already know that). Chris was spittin some bard s tho! LOVE the black x white, grimy feel of the vid too. I had to post it. Hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did. Now, where can I get that beat???

I'm a person built on sounds. Like, if you're a rapper, and you're dope ... i may not be able to f_ck with you simply because of the tone of your voice. You can have the illest punch lines and subject matter. It's an aesthetics thing. One reason I can't really get hip to Wale....... But, this dude Kendrick Lamar. I ran across this video at 3 somethn in the morning and instantly fell "in like". I'll be listening to more from him. Anybody care to put me onto some dope ass track that I just gotta hear??

Let me know.

Interview with PS

Caught up with a good friend of mine at an art show at VCU. PS, who I call P Spence, speaks on her artwork. She has done artwork for many many MANY artists such as J. Cole, The Cool Kids, N.E.R.D., Wale, Asher Roth ... the list goes on and on. Check it out and follow her @PSImdope.

AaaaaaaaaHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's so much stuff being thrown at me right now and all I can do is scream. Well, on the inside. (I hate to show my weakness). It's like ... why is this artist thing so fucking complicated?? Why are people so fickle?? All I wanna do is make music art. Uggghhhhhh!!! I just hope my supporters will understand me along the way ... this complicated process ... these continuous whirlwind. *sigh*

Too Smooth

I love black x white flicks. And the smooth ass song made it that ... much ... better illa.

Channelling my Nina Simone

I felt like painting tonight. I can get used to this ...


"She Bad" by Me

I’ll eventually put this on a big ass canvas and hang it up in my room. Just a daily reminder of how “bad” I am. Every female should have one.
