Happy New Year - 2012

What a year it has been. I finally graduated from Montclair State University.

Class of 2011 baby! 

Now I can concentrate on my hobby and can try and regularly update my blog.  The 52 week project was not completed my apologies BUT I did get some great shots. 

 Now I was fortunate enough to visit my friend Johnny SOAP Vega along with Carlos LASH Torres, two very talented individuals.  We are planning something great for SOAP's web page, it's going to be fun putting it together.

So stay tuned!

Here is the video that we created

Hope you enjoed the show!

Until next time!

52 Week Project - Week 47

This weeks pictures come to you from a beautiful piece of art work from a phenomenal New Jersey artist, Johnny SOAP45 Vega.

He has created a model subway train for me, you can also see the other trains he has done on his page, click.

The following bio was taken from his website www.soap45.com

"For over 20 years Johnny Vega has built up an extensive and diverse body of work under the graffiti pseudonym SOAP45. This body of work has produced airbrush graffiti art on Walls, Clothing apparel, business establishments, Portraits, Helmets and much more! As a well known and long established graffiti artist, he has been named a legend in New Jersey and is highly respected in the Graffiti Industry. Among his many accomplishments, SOAP45 has done work for former New York Yankee Bernie Williams, New Jersey Devil, Martin Brodeur and Reality show star NJ housewife, Melissa Gorga.  Gallery presentations, solicitations to trade shows and graffiti meetings with M.O.S, cements the idea that SOAP45 is well regarded as one of the best in the game. Mixing medias by using photography, experimental painting, and print projects, SOAP45 promises to elevate his Graffiti style to a new and exciting dimension."

You can follow him on twitter, he is on facebook and my favorite is his website, www.soap45.com. Where you can see his art and purchase various paintings and also order custom portraits, hat's, t-shirts, hoodies, and yes a model subway train like mine.  He can do anything you like on it.

I want to wish my good friend the best and continued success!

I hope you liked the pics and go check out his website, you will not be disappointed.

Keep taking pictures!

Until Next Week!

52 Week Project - Week 36 - 42

Sorry I have not been around to update but I do want to finish up the year at the least.  I was inspired to start this up again by a good friend, the very talented SOAP45.

The following excerpt was taken from the sign that was posted under this beautiful Brahma Shrine:

"The Brahma shrine is renowned through the far east, to people of all faiths, as a place of prayer which in turn bestows prosperity and good fortune on those who come to visit and make their hopes and wishes known.

The casting ceremonies for the four-faced, eight-handed statue of the Brahma were held in Bangkok, Thailand on November 25, 1983 and many important religious authorities and international dignitaries participated."

Hope you liked this as much as I did when I saw it.

Until next week!

Ciao!
