I love artist, because they understand the language of art, as much as I do. I appreciate artist's hard work and discovery in their art works and enjoy them as the artist display them and share them to the public, more so to their community.

This video clip is of solo show of Mr. M. Tony Peralta who had a great responce with his work and had bring many people together in a great discussion over ones own identity.

Check out the video and let me know what you think, hope to hear from you all.

ART EPISODE # 30 ... Grace Hotel ... and Digital Art Competion at THE SPOT

I had so much fun in these two events...

From The Grace Hotel, viewing the fashion and glamour, the the swimming pool ad selling my art on the location proceeded well to the other event that same night, called THE SPOT, in a place called OPEN HOUSE Gallery in Spring Street New York City.

Delighted I was but very nervous from start to finish, I was in a new realm of art in a timed arena.
I was competing for a Chance to win a price, amongst many other gifted Urban painters and graff writers.

Art Battles at the Stuyvesant Town Oval, JULY... 2..... and a short Art Episode in recap. I WON yay

Whats NEW......with .... me

After what happened to Japan, my sorrow for the many death had my heart aching for such a long time, that it got me stuck in a trance... and while the regular mother at home as well as my art career routine to pursue my art dreams where at hand, my spiritual connection to mother nature and those people that perish, lingered in my heart as well as n my soul... I saw my self FROZEN

I was mental stuck, emotionally finding a way to find that bridge back to reality, and I did find it after a personal tragedy that happened this Spring of 2011.


Then the Light was sparked....

Mission: It is my responsibility to help the young ones cope with the strange world of finding a way to CO EXISTS to where we are now, and learn just the positive outlets of ones personal gift.


I was privileged enough to be apart of many exciting programs where I taught young folks about PASSION about the arts, as well as the courage to pursue via the means of focusing ones desire to make it REAL enough for them....

The Run Down...

A music Video that I was gratefully able to complete with many obstacles and lengthy adjustments , and the running around to get it done, as well keeping the harmony of my house hold, art art career! Took an estimate of a few month , and nothing happen.. ( those that know me understand what I'm talking about)

2.

my son graduation to the 1 FIRST GRADE !!!!!

Talking to young folks about their future... even if its not Art related, and how its important .... it is to FIND what you LOVE....

More pics soon!

Then beig on TV, gracious enough from a Brooklyn programmer by the name of Maron who established, FOR FATHERS, where they bring out the importance of being a positive ROLE model for their children and abolish the negative stigma about the stereo types about the Urban traditions . I was not expecting this, but there was also a Televising crew by the name of: NEW YORK LINKZ, where they caught me painting at their shop!

 even had a great adventure with my son in the BRONX, painting Live , but their was way too many curse words and beyond pent out Sexually older folks for many sons ears, I had to create my art and bail out QUICK FAST! Love them folks, but a mother role is to provide positive outlets where knowledge of self is spread evenly in proper amounts! lol

I was able to also make some brief art works on Sneakers by the help of SEN - ONE, and his friend, Terry.

I even painting near my neighborhood, and I knew not many would go and see me.. most LATINOS don't really think its a good job to start with and be what you call it.. worth  wild or realistic!... But I did it to help explain that ART was established by our indigenous roots from the get go... do the Research ! * CITY COLLEGE

April ART SHOWS.... ART EPISODE.. featuring two short documentary one NIGHT

April Art shows, were two videos that I was able to document, one was a Live Art Performance in the Lower Manhattan ear in a Beautiful lounge called DIVA LOUNGE where many Urban Artist paint together, and is coordinated by Savior.

Check out the Video which I made a few month ago.... I do hope you enjoy it, feed backs are so great it helps me and the many artist that are expresing their hearts to the world

My first MUSIC VIDEO :::::: Bamboo Bros, KURIOUS JORGE and DAVE DAR / " Make A Fortune "

You all know I have created " Art Episode ", that titled I borrowed that from Giannina Gutierrez, from all her art adventures at camaradas and other venues.

I borrowed that name to film many of our mutual art friends all over the city and beyond.. and such it stuck. Many people have viewed my videos including a friend by the name of Jorge, also known as the MC named KURIOUS JORGE, who made many songs during the late 80's early 90's.

He also supported all my art show by being there, and that means a lot. Our kids love each other and play often in the parks when ever the temperature permits, and thus a family friend relationship started.

After viewing a few of my art episodes, Kurious Jorge asked if I would be interested in making a video for him. I was so delighted and stunned because I never did a music video before! He gave me the CD of the album that he and Dave Dar was on, and asked me to pick a song from there and talk more about the idea that I might get from after hearing the sounds.

I heard allot of the CD and the #2 of the music was a hit! I totally visualized all the ideas of the video starting from the HOOK, and from there meetings to make it possible was possible.

They needed a better camera that what I was using, and the other person I remember that had such a camera was Giovanni G. also know as Gio BUZZ Saw... who works for http://www.getkuku.com/

With Gio's help, and his skaters and bikers, all I needed was a location.

The place was so embedded in my memory I thought of one skate park which used to be across the streets from another friend name LEXI BELLA, Monroe street under the bridge.

EVEY THING was working well... and this promo video is just an essence to what will become.

I thank you all for reading and sharing with my my art experience via paint and or video...
