Hello, 2016.

It's nice to meet you!

Here's to a year of self-love, of adventure, of abundance, of magic.
 
Be kind to yourself this year.

I updated my website, so check it out here and I'll love you forever.

Here's some of my most recent work:


 





On New Years Eve, my best friend Michelle and I went to a house party, which was thrown by a friend of her co-worker. I only knew about a half-dozen peeps at the party, but everyone was so warm and friendly. As the night progressed, about 30 people showed up, which was awesome because we had a huge group of people to play Cards Against Humanity with. I had only ever played this game one other time in college and I forgot just how ridiculous and silly it is.


Around 12:30 AM, Mich and I decided to head back to her place, since the ball had already dropped. As we were saying our goodbye's to everyone, I walked up to this incredibly handsome guy that I had met at the beginning of the night. As I reached out to shake his hand and inform him that I was leaving, he said my name. I was surprised, because other than introducing myself and taking a shot with him at the beginning of the night, we didn't really talk at all until that moment. Luckily, I remembered his name as well and he told me not to go.


(Naturally) I laughed because I assumed he was tipsy and just being friendly, but the small voice in the back of my mind liked to think he may of been flirting. Who knows, my gaydar is broken. After I said I had to go, he told me that I "need to stay for at least another hour and a half" haha The conversation just kept flowing and he was really engaging and fun to talk to. We talked about his travels, since he was visiting SoFlo and what he does. But after about ten minutes of chatting in the kitchen, a girl came out of nowhere and abruptly grabbed his wrist and yanked him away into the other room. The conversation ended so suddenly, that I decided to look him up on Instagram a day or two later and now we follow each other. Look at dem muscles...


Once we finally left the party and got back to Mich's place, we dimmed the lights, turned on her diffuser, played some chill music, ate some Darrell Lea strawberry licorice and made 2016 Goal Lists!!


This year I'm putting all my faith and trust in God's hands. I know He aligned my life so that I am exactly where I need to be at this moment in time. If you're not necessarily where you want to be in your life, just know that progress=happiness and as long as you're actively striving for growth, you'll achieve it. The Universe is working for our greater good and God is working things out for you, even if you don't feel it.

I hope to completely blossom into a new person this year and glow a whole lot brighter.

Much LOVE Guys!!

  1. Nice job dude, you're a great artist.
    It's bad when our gaydar don't work well, worse than that are the doubts if the guy is or not is gay.
    Happy new year!

    1. Hey Dominus, thanks so much for commenting, I love reading feedback! Dude, thank you for the flattering words, I'm so appreciative!

      It's so easy to mistake friendliness for flirting and vice versa. I have such a hard time deciphering the difference, like even if a guy is giving me his undivided attention, making solid eye contact and smiling hardcore, I still question if he's just a really friendly individual.

    1. Hey Brandon, inspiration is a powerful tool! One thing I've learned is to discover what you love, because you never know who you're going to inspire.
