Conceptual Street Sign Photography collection by MWP Pasadena artists thwart unity on local music scene with new movement

ThaWilsonBlock Magazine is the premier digital street sign photography publication released on the 10 th of every month. Articles & Advertisements are due by 5 th of every month.

Michael Taylor is commonly known as Bing Bing or Mistah Wilson, the man behind ThaWilsonBlock and the Pasadena Music Scene.

ThaWilsonBlock Magazine 851 N. Oakland Avenue Pasadena, CA 91104 thawilsonMAG@gmail.com

It‟s been a little over 3 years since tha creation of tha formal „Pasadena Music Scene‟. It was created by Mistah Wilson once he realized tha simplicity of uniting tha scene. However, with local, native artists refusing to be a part of tha unity movement on Pasadena‟s vast music scene, Mistah Wilson is considering expansion of tha scene.

Out of nowhere, tha #OneDena movement sprouted and although we admire tha effort to unite artists in town, tha move has been a clear statement to Pasadena Music Scene that “We Don‟t Need You!” Because we sincerely stand for a unified local music scene, we cannot afford to refute such a movement like #OneDena. “It was just like when Jason Hardin created The Dena Magazine thinking he was going to be tha centerpiece for local, native content. Tha effort is appreciated, however, I just can‟t believe that he has tha best interest of local culture like that of ThaWilsonBlock and Pasadena Music Scene, who boasts tha largest archive of local, native contemporary artists content” says Mistah Wilson. “I don‟t understand how these cats think they can unite tha town if they were too good to associate with tha one that was here first…Pasadena Music Scene.” Pasadena Music Scene was created to unite local artists and provide them with outlets to gain quality exposure. Since it‟s inception, those efforts have been thwarted by tha very local, native artists who claim to be from DENA.Yet, no one cares to know that there is little to no entities in Pasadena that cater to tha local, native scene. As a result of this, Mistah Wilson is planning to trade in Pasadena Music Scene to establish tha general local music scene everywhere!

Get an understanding When giving a spontaneous testimony we may not give a lot of thought to answering the question “what must I do to be saved?” We just say what happened.

When we give much thought to our testimony after studying what scripture has to say about conversion we improve on our testimony because , at that point, we explain what happened to us —we have comprehension, not just an awareness of the facts but an understanding as well (Proverbs 4:7). This is a good thing.

—From the pages of “You Will be My Witness” by Warrior Richardson ©2011

Trust & Repentance Trust and repentance are two key elements of a testimony, because they answer the question, “What must I do to be saved.” And that is the most impor tant question a testimony needs to answer. We answer that question by simply describing what happened. As they say, “just the facts Ma‟am.” The facts speak volumes . An explanation would be nice if we possess the biblical knowledge and understanding—which is cer tainly a good thing, and should be an aspiration of ever y Christian.

—From the pages of “You Will be My Witness” by Warrior Richardson ©2011

Fear of failure

Actually, most people typically describe their conversion exceedingly well, once they get over the fear of failure . For some reason, they think they are not qualified to do this . They think they should leave this to the exper ts—the salaried ministers . Its the old, “don‟t tr y this at home” syndrome .

—From the pages of “You Will be My Witness” by Warrior Richardson ©2011

Start right where you are The first chapter of the book of Acts tells us about witnessing in Jerusalem, then Samaria then the rest of the world (Acts 1:8). One could infer from that that it is being suggested that we should star t preaching right where we are and then expand our parameters .

Pasadena artist DOMINANCE fulfills his ‘One Million Foot’ commitment for causes & charity and releases official statement about his experience.

By Michael Taylor

“Yeah, bro, let’s do it!” Dom says It all started on August 9th, 2014 when Michael Brown was shot and killed by Ferguson, Missouri Police. Controversy and agitation in America was on high, and Michael Bing Bing Taylor felt tha need to do something about it. Instead of joining tha crowd and following public opinion about propagated news in tha media, Bing Bing had an urge to exemplify the power of positive role models by doing an extreme, long-distance walk for empowerment. After having done several walks and running the LA Marathon, Bing Bing believed he could walk all tha way to Long Beach from Altadena if he put his mind to it. This was the beginning of something great…and Bing Bing wouldn‟t be tha only one to experience it.

Tha day was hot & humid in Pasadena, California. The Gold Line pulls up to it‟s beloved Memorial Park station prompting riders who are getting off to step back out in tha August heat. It‟s a beautiful day. The doors open and the crowd rushes out as tha inconsiderate push their way in. The crowd walks up the ramp and to the top of the stairs. Left, right, and ahead, everybody goes their own way.

As the crowd clears, there stands Dominic Poole, a Pasadena artist commonly known as DOMINANCE. His Los Angeles Lakers hat faces forward as he makes his way down Holly Street to journey around Old Towne Pasadena. Soon enough, Dom gets a call from Bing Bing about what he‟s calling The Historic 33mile Walk for Empowerment from Altadena to Long Beach. “It‟s meant to offset tha negative things happening around us by being that positive role model we so desperately need in our communities,” explains Bing Bing.

When Dom was asked for his participation, he replies,” Yeah, let‟s do it, bro!” Being it would be Dom‟s first major walk with tha movement, Bing Bing asks again,” Are you sure? We‟re going to be walking 33 miles! Like, all tha way to Long Beach.

To tha water.” Dom assures him that he‟s able, willing, & ready. Although tha walk was planned to take place 10 days after the Michael Brown incident, it proved to be feasible as the two young men set out from Farnsworth Park at 3:00 in tha morning.

It was an intense walk. A close friend of Bing Bing met up with them at Farnsworth Park for

prayer just before embarking on the mission. It was dark, but not that cold. They began walking at 3:00am and journeyed down Lake Avenue, through Pasadena, and into SouthPas. When they reached Alhambra, they would take Atlantic for tha duration of tha walk all tha way to tha LBC. By 12 noon, tha two young artists reached Slauson Avenue. Because they were making good time, they decided to eat at Denny‟s.

Getting to Long Beach wasn‟t as bad as getting through Long Beach. Once they entered tha Northern part of tha city passing Jordan High School, they felt victorious…naively forgetting that tha route doesn‟t end until they reach tha Aquarium at tha bottom of town. They ambitiously bailed through Bixby Knolls. At one point, it seemed like it would never end.

It sort of became like a race between tha two not to give up. Roughly a couple of hours after entering Long Beach, they made it to tha Aquarium of tha Pacific where they would formally end tha walk and get a ride home from a friend.

For tha remainder of tha year, Dom would patiently wait for tha next walk. In early December 2015, Bing Bing had an idea to inspire tha formal street name change of Washington Boulevard in Pasadena, California to tha very first (Jackie or Mack) Robinson Boulevard after watching tha movie „42‟ about tha Life and Career of Jackie Robinson. After small discussions about tha proposed walk, Dom proceeded to take tha „One Million Foot‟ pledge for causes & charity. And after walking 33 miles earlier last year, he was confident that tha proposed 42mile walk was definitely achievable.

It was called Tha Iconic 42mile Walk for Love, Peace, & Unity inspired by Jackie Robinson.

Those who participated in this walk was Dom, Bing Bing, Chris Pillado aka Jangle or Jay Blue, Francisco Reyes, and Otto Evans. Tha group of artists met up in tha North Lake Square where they would walk over to Altadena Drive & Washington to formally begin tha effort. Unforseen circumstances prevented Francisco & Otto from walking with them, but they at least made sure they were there to support tha movement. At approximately 1:00a, they began walking Westbound on Washington Boulevard towards Fair Oaks Avenue.

Once they reach Fair Oaks, they headed South through SouthPas and into NELA and DTLA. As tha crew passed by tha Little Tokyo / Arts District Gold Line train station, they reached Central Avenue & 1st Street.

This is where they would take Central Avenue all tha way down to Rosecrans in tha City of Compton. From there, they‟ll head West on Rosecrans until they reach Crenshaw Boulevard. From Crenshaw, they walked all tha way up to Leimert Park.

It wasn‟t easy. They did so much walking that once they did reach Rosecrans, they took a quick rest stop at Starbucks that lasted longer than expected. There was a point in tha walk where everyone wished it was over already. But, tha beautiful thing was that not once did any of them complain about tha enduring. And at tha end of tha day, tha mission was accomplished.

DOMINANCE‟s critical role in all of this was his motivation. And even when Bing Bing was ready to quit, Dom wouldn‟t let him. Through all tha dull moments of tha walks, Dom was always ready to conquer it. And he did. After Tha Iconic 42mile Walk for Love, Peace, & Unity, Bing Bing decided to tone it down a bit by setting up a series of easier distance walks. After seeing how many people lack mindfulness, respect for each other, and common courtesy, Bing Bing felt tha need to do a walk in light of that.

It was called Tha Mindful 27mile Walk for Respect & Common Courtesy from Pasadena City Hall to Pomona City Hall via Arrow Highway. They decided to do tha walk in honor of Good Fathers on Fathers Day 2015, meaning they were out there walking through tha San Gabriel Valley smack dab in tha middle of Summer. By time they reached Barranca Avenue, they were passing out on bus benches. Tha segment of tha walk between San Dimas and La Verne would arguably be tha hardest since it felt so long and drawn out. Nonetheless, Dom, Bing Bing, and Jangles would successfully reach Garey Avenue & Mission Street in Pomona, California. A friend came to pick them up to take them back to the Westside of LA where Bing Bing lived. Tha walk ended rather sooner than projected and allowed them to enjoy tha rest of their day.

After virtually walking tha length of tha San Gabriel Valley, they were able to get street signs documenting tha route in cities such as Pasadena, Arcadia, Temple City, Irwindale, Covina, Azusa, Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, and of course, Pomona. Because Bing Bing had a beautiful SGV collection of street sign photos, he just had to conquer

tha streets of tha San Fernando Valley. He proposed Tha Triumphant 20mile Walk for Victory in Advance from North Hollywood to Northridge. Ordinarily, tha route was set to walk tha length of tha SFV via Victory Boulevard. But, because partial motivation for this walk was to achieve a unique SFV collection of street sign photographs, they decided to take an upward diagonal route through tha valley where Bing Bing would also pass an old group home he use to live in.

Dom recorded Bing Bing on camera talking about his experience being a foster kid living in Northridge.

What do they mean by „Victory in Advance‟? Victory over tha enemy. Victory over tha obstacles each one of us face every day of our lives.

Victory in advance that gives hope for a brighter day. A better tomorrow. Essentially, it means that they we are taking control of our own destiny and using it for the betterment of each other, our community, and tha world at large.

And just when you thought it couldn‟t get any more bigger, they challenged tha nearimpossible. Dom was informed on Tha Fortified 50mile Walk for Determination inspired by Helen Keller from

tha city of San Bernardino to Northwest Pasadena. And just so we‟re clear, tha walk took place from tha „city‟, not just tha „county‟ of San Bernardino. Arguably tha most intense walk yet, tha group trekked literally all tha way down Foothill Boulevard, through Route66 and into Los Angeles County. Just minutes after noon, Dom & Co. had finally reached tha Los Angeles county line where all four of them gathered for a memorable photo. They continued tha walk all tha way through Glendora to Azusa Pacific University / Citrus College.

From there, tha crew actually caught tha 187 Fotthill bus to Rosemead Boulevard & Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena where they would continue tha mission to tha Northwest section of tha city.

Shortly after completing Tha Fortified 50mile Walk for Determination from San Bernardino to Pasadena, Bing Bing was convinced that would be tha last major walk. “We learned a lot on that walk,” explains Bing Bing. “It was no „walk in tha park‟ in tha least.” Dom agreed that if there was to be another major walk, it would have to be more organized. But, Dom being tha person that he is, never backs down from a good challenge. He gets a call from Bing Bing about Tha Courageous 23mile Walk for Courage from

San Pedro to Los Angeles City Hall. Oh yea, this one would definitely fit tha description of „courageous‟…And sure enough, DOMINANCE would be ready & willing to see it through.

It was a hot, Summer day in 2016 Southern California. It was Bing Bing, Dominic, and local poet Mina Wildcard. They took tha blue line light rail train all tha way to Long Beach where they would catch a connection to tha City of San Pedro. Once they reached San Pedro, they would begin walking Northbound towards City Hall in Downtown Los Angeles. It was crazy. Tha crew virtually walked from tha 250th streets all tha way to 1st street. And it took them all day long.

What gang banger(s) you know willing to walk through all of those different zones? They walked tha length of Figueroa Street ending at Spring Street & 1st. There were times along tha walk where Bing Bing just wanted to go home already, however, because he was tha organizer of tha event, Dom wasn‟t quitting that easy. “I took a day off work for this walk and I will complete my commitment once I‟m done so it doesn‟t make sense to stop now,” says DOMINANCE. His truth rang loud and was undeniable. They kept walking hard up Fig, through tha Hoovers and Denver Lane sets, passing tha coliseum and tha University of Southern California. When they finished, Dom caught tha bus home from Pershing Square and Bing Bing continued walking to tha Gold Line to Pasadena. It was a good day. They completed tha walk and Dom‟s commitment for causes & charity has been fulfilled.

After Dom, Chris Pillado would be tha next in line closest to completing a million foot commitment for causes & charity. Chris hasn‟t been part of them all, but he did tag along for tha biggest of them. Mistah Wilson is currently talking to Chris about making a formal commitment since he‟s done about 3 of them outside of tha pledge. “If we can get Chris to make tha commitment, he would already be well on his way to achievement having done tha 42mile, 50mile, and 27mile walks. His participation thus far already exceeds 100+ miles of walking,” explains Bing Bing.

As for Dominic, he might end up losing count of tha miles like Bing Bing did if he continues on walking extreme distance missions. One thing is for certain, and that is that we are very proud of Dominic Poole not just for doing something great,

but for being a true and sincere team player. For not allowing his friends to quit. For being ready to make a difference at tha sound of tha call. Through these walks, Dominic has exemplified tha true power of positive role models and has inspired those closest to him. As we await another major walk, it will be interesting to see just how far Dom is willing to go.

“He‟s not just a great friend to have, but he is my best friend,” Bing Bing exclaims. There is no substitute for a person like Dominic Poole. ♦♦♦

Dominic Poole’s Official Statement after successfully completing his ‘One Million Foot’ commitment for causes & charity “So when a good friend of mine asked me, yo Dom you down to walk (The Historic) 33 miles for empowerment, I knew he was serious because of the stature of his character. At the time I was going through a lot of personal beef with myself and just trying to see if I still had what it takes to be a better man and a harder worker, so I told him of course I'm down to do the walk with you. We were the only two to do the walk on August 20th 2014 we walked from the hills of Altadena to the shores of Long Beach. I'll never forget that day, that was the day I started to take on my beef with myself that day I moved a mountain. It was a tough Journey I could barely feel my legs when we reach the finish line but through the leadership and empowerment of my fellow Peer Michael "Bing Bing" Taylor, I followed him to Victory that was the day I started my pledge and commitment to walk a million feet. Many walks would happen after that one but that was the most memorable Act of Courage that started it all and made me into a believer that we are empowered to do the impossible. After that I would go on to walk 27 miles for respect and common courtesy, 20 more miles 4 victory in advance. The iconic 42 mile walk for love peace and unity, in honor of Jackie Robinson and oh my goodness let's not forget the fortified 50 mile walk for determination from the mean streets of San Bernardino all the way up Foothill Boulevard Route 66 into Azusa into Pasadena. After this walk I knew that nothing was impossible!!! The walks took two years exactly to finish I would like to say two of my most inspiring years and some of my most enduring years to say the least and on July 20th 2016 6 days after my 32nd birthday, I would walk 23 miles For courage and complete my million foot pledge commitment. While joining a good friend of mine Michael "Bing Bing" Taylor as being the only other representative of that status. It has been an honor, i know we felt like quitting but we never gave up and we push through and prevailed. I couldn't do this alone so thank you and let's keep it going, let's keep it moving, let's keep inspiring, let's keep motivating, let's keep overcoming our fears and let's keep living our dreams!!! What's on the way im not too sure but I'll be anticipating the next call. Thank you Brother!!!”

Unsuccessful in my attempt to utilize the institutional grievance process I was left no choice but to file a complaint for injunctive relief within the California Eastern District Cour t Fresno Division ( Ander son v. Tallerico Case No. 1:13-cv-00507-LJO-JLT). I was denied relief through the institutional grievance process . In addition, I was denied injunctive relief on my 1983 without any constitutional concern over this manâ€&#x;s audacity to crack their Judicial Business Code . In refusing to free any substantial amount of prisoners .

Especially in 2015, after filing motions to recuse and for a change of venue in the California Eastern District Cour t Fresno Division (Ander son v. Brown et al., 1:12 -cv01839-AWI-XLB), when it was discovered that a Federal Magistrate and District Judge were both previously employed as State Judges . Both were recipients of local judicial incentives from their respective County Board of Super visors In 2012, after ser ving the California Judicial Council's Depar tment, along with 52 County Superior Cour ts with "Preliminar y Notices and Demands" (See Cal. Civil Code Sec . 1782 ); concerning freeing about a 150 prisoners originally addressed within those documents . Soon, afterward false charges were filed against me in the Kings County Municipal Cour thouse for an assault on a Correctional Officer ( People v. Ander son Case No. 12CM7578).

On September 17, 2013, the charges were dismissed against me after filing a 995 motion in response to the cour t systemâ€&#x;s deliberate disregard of my right to call character witnesses in my defense during the preliminar y hearing .

On Januar y 22, 2013, I was transferred from Corcoran State Prison Security Housing Unit (SHU), to Kern Valley B yard general population. After reviewing the class action documents (while providing copies) Kern Valley's law librarian displayed instant opposition and decided to deny me with any law librar y access .

(e .g., Ettlin v. Harris at al., 2013 U.S. Dist.

LEXIS 170526), equally possession the necessar y insight to have warranted their recusal off of our class action, or separate pending suits I had filed within the California Eastern District Cour t Fresno Division (Ander son v. The City at al., Case No. 1:14-cv-00202-LJO-MJS; Ander son v.

Cahlander et al., Case No. 1:12-cv-01966LJO-DLB .; & Ander son v. Kimbrell et al., 1:13-cv-00378-AWI-DLB). Refusing themselves or transferring our class action to a different District Cour t our class action was instantly denied with prejudice while simultaneously dismissing the other lawsuits just to flex the cour t's abusive authority that my voice will not be heard.

Our lawsuit is presently within the Ninth Circuit Cour t of Appeals . Without your assistance we will be another unlit fire that the government has buried without any public awareness .

Checking the System Question? Have you ever wondered why California or similar states have this intense propensity to continuously build more prisons and county courthouses, or why the state’s Criminal justice system is so replete with encoded administrative law books? Perhaps you have thought or stopped to think to yourself how this system is actually orchestrated? Surprisingly it is more biblical than you may realize or even care to know.

In order to understand practices which we are vaguely aware of today it is only wise that I open your eyes to a system not often preached about. The succeeding portions of this blog are not written with any sophisticated language but using urban sometimes street language in order to get a man’s point across. Don’t [NH1] get it confused this isn’t church by any means just because I use biblical passages in order to Visine (open) your eyes toward the political posture that the Torah of Yahweh (God) has sermonized.

Therefore in keeping this short and directly focused on a portrait I will just Kodak here the judicial arena where the administration of the laws of Yahweh (God) were disseminated. (II Chronicles 19:4 -7, Exodus 18 v 19-23: Deuteronomy. 1 V 9 -18 ; Deuteronomy 16 v 18 -20 ; First Samuel 3 v 19 -20) During biblical times it was customary then judicial appointees to: •Have a financial quotation system set up to properly adjudge all forms of commercial crimes. (Exodus 22 v 2-15, 18-22, 28-36) •Have a facility or infrastructure designated to house their community’s detainees until a fair and impartial hearing could be decided by a judge. ( Leviticus. 4 v 10 -12; Joshua 20 v 1-6 ;Jeremiah 38 v 4-6 ; Matthew 5 v. 25 ) and; •All depending on the type of crime, that is, whether it was commercial or non -life threatening towards its subject (Exodus Ch. V 22 -15, Ch. 19-22) or whether it was commercial and non -financially motivated but entailed life threatening circumstances toward their victims. (Proverbs Ch. 1 v 12 -19; Numbers Ch. 35 v 16-21) Thus depending upon the nature of the crime it determined whether or not each suspect were either each were sentenced to the following; •Indicted of their financial debts through laboring for a land owner, tenants or renters of properties until their years of service were well compensated for the amount owed for their crimes.

(Deuteronomy 15 v 12 -15 ) •be sentenced to some penal institution /slave labor encampment that usually entailed a substantial amount of years working in service to the state since the ordinary route of sentencing someone to work for their neighbor to pay of their financial obligations were declined by a land owner, tenant or renter of properties. (Matthews 5 v 25) Here is the flip side a poor persons judicial sentence towards physically servicing off their financial debts if at any time during those sentences such a person or anyone within their immediate family becomes financially able to financial pay off their remaining balance to the landowner, tenant or renter of properties or the state itself the law specifies that on such payment such individuals were to be released from custody and/or their financial obligations. (Leviticus 25 v 47 -55)

•Be sentenced to death if their offences were capital crimes and is non dischargeable. (Numbers 35 v 16-34) Now let’s fast forward from this motion picture a moment into our contemporary times, since I was born and reside in California I will use California’s laws specifically to highlight certain perspectives in order to show you readers how todays laws are being use indiscriminately against all minorities not aware of how we are being bartered off.

Pursuant to the California Penal Code pursuant to section 1269b (c) and (e) it is imperative to note that California judicial appointees are equally charged with the responsibility to setting the financial quotes upon on their listed criminal offenses. In California Legislatures as authorized its county board of supervisors with the secret task to building their county court houses, and local county detention facilities. (See California Penal Code so: 4494 & 4497.10 (subsection m)) see also ( Dineen vs. City and County of San Francisco 38 Cal. Ct. App.2d 486, 100, P. 2d 736 Cal. Ct. App.1 Dist. 1940; and Sturgeon vs. County of Los Angeles 167 Cal. Ct. App 4 630, 84 Cal. Rpt. 3d 242 Cal Ct. App 2008).

Depending on the type of crime committed California laws provides, •Community services for those individuals to pay off low financial debts for crimes committed See California Penal Code section 490.5 subsection d 2) to be sentenced to a state penal institution/slave labor encampment for those individuals that the system has declined to sanction any laws permitting a landowner, tenants, or renter of properties to decide on weather a suspect should work their financial debts off by working for them for any substantial amount of years (See Cali Penal Code 1205 (a) although California laws does permit a person or anyone within their immediate family to secure the releases of that person if ever they should ever become financially able to pay of their remaining balance (see California Penal Code 1464) (subdivision A-E and 1457) or; 3) Be sentenced to death if their charged offenses were capital in nature and non -dischargeable from execution. (See Cali PC sec 1270.5) Therefore as described above here are the parallels in modifications contemporary to our times. Just like it was structured from the Torah California’s judicial forums are similarly tasked with listing financial quotes on all criminal charges.

Just like it was structured from the Torah California’s criminal justice system does have redemptive process (see Cali Civ Code 2903 -2905) where an indictee or convicted person can decide to pay in total their fines. (See California pc sec 1457) and not be held to stand trial or either obligated to service off their financial debts within any of California’s prisons. (See California’s pc Sec 1205) However, here is the flip side besides informing an indicted convicted minority of this inherent right the State of California are intentionally withholding this insight due the accumulative service charges (see Cali Penal Code sec 1463.001) that are being exacted against an indigent inductee or convicted minority in order to enhance their financial debts now to the state. (See Cali Cd Pro Sec 995.130) Besides allowing any court personnel the authorization to inform any indicted or convicted of this right to redemption (Leviticus Ch. 25 v 47 -49) the state of California has legislatively authorized in reverse tax liens to be approximated against their indicted or convicted minorities in order to sell their accumulative interests to the public under title loans. (See Cali 4401 thru 4490; Code of Civil Sec 701 -724). Thus, reaping a larger profit while those indicted or convicted minorities are ignorantly unaware that their judgment financial debts are being sold to third party purchasers who are signing promissory notes to pay back their financial obligations without them ever becoming aware that redemptive rights were indirectly already covered.

Now with this in mind this was intended to enlighten you enough to inform you that a class action suit was filed in the California Eastern District Court Fresno Division case title Dion Anderson versus Edmund G Brown. (12-cv-01839-AWI-DLB). This blog is specifically written in order to enlist your public support due to Mr. Anderson’s quest to try an liberate as many prisoners that have been unjustifiably detained behind for walls for such excessive lengths of time. This includes making the public aware to what is happening so that we can collectively make a positive change to this system in which too many money lenders have invaded in order to make a profit and not to truly execute real justice.

Mistah Wilson: What positive, encouraging words do you have for aspiring artists?

Rafa Wizroks: To quote on of my personal heroes of mine Stewart Scott. He would always say never ever give up. If your dream and goal is to be a visual artist. Never stop drawing and never stop learning because with dedication and sacrifice you will be the artist that you are meant to be. And I'm a big big advocate of education. Study the great masters of the past and learn about them and the art that they created. And always learn your tools and how to use them if you had a pencil in your hand and a paper on the table and you want too draw a graff letter as an example would you know where to start or how to control the pencil so you can execute and accomplish your piece that's where studying and learning come into play.
