Paper Crayons: Portraits 2nd Issue
As long as I have Leopode with me there is no one I can not talk to. This is the second issue of portraits. These are the various people that I have met. Asking someone if I can take there portrait is a great way to break the ice. I always find them amazing the people that I meet and the images I capture. It's that moment when some one actually allows themself to be seen, without having to put up a mask.

if you can't trust the people around you then don't. no one will be anything other than what and who they are. trust that. just because you are the voice of many doesn't mean the many are you.
don't be afraid anymore stop throwing away the value of the past. execpt your position in this world. tell the truth, the truth.
unlike everyone else.

ARTLIFE:
I snuck into HRH Gregory Alive's bedroom and took this video of his current drawings using PaperCrayons.
At first look they just appeared to be drawings done by some kid bored with his time.
They are done on 8x11 paper, with the exception of 2, that he takes from his copier and colored with oil pastels. I sat on his bed and looked at them for what they are. Instead of the cartoonish drawings I began to see time. It was his time that I was beginning to see. I began to see hours and hours of time he spent on this whole collection.
I though come on now man, what are you doing with your time? Why are these images revelent? What do they have to do with art? Most of all why am I looking them? I kept asking myself WHY? Why is this guy doing what he is doing?
What do these images want of me?
Why would he spend so much time on doing these odd images? I wanted to get into his mind and his thought process. Each image is done purposely. The lines, the colors chosen, the expression in the eyes. Are these images of people that he has encountered or are they all self portraits? Each one has different characteristic but they all share a similarity.
Look in the eyes of them. They all have this compelling need to be seen. Each of them says "look at me, do you see me?" As I looked at them I began to see nolonger cartoonish characters but I started seeing stories.
unvailing the stories, -Prince within this loveletter

ART LIFE:
Looking back on my first day I have to laugh because he gave me a case that involved his client wanting to trademark the name "Malabar" but "Malabar" had already been taken and the request was denied by the trademark offices. it was my job to find an reason to argue the case. He had given me a file and said research this and at the end of the day give me a reason to continue billing my client.
I had no idea what I was doing but I gave it a go and read so much information on Malabar. I found out that Malabar was a region in India that was known for it's crops on basmati rice. I read hundreds of pages of information.
20 minutes before the end of my shift He called me into his office and asked me what I had. I remember thinking there is noway i am going into his office and telling I couldn't find anything to help his case. So I just went with my gut instinct and told him the first thing that went through my head and then showed him all the information I had and how it backed up my conclusion. He looked me like, are you serious? I was so nervous. He said to great job I can continue to argue the case on this little bit of information. He sent me back into my office and with instruction to write an outline for a paper explaining what I had discovered. I asked what was an outline? LOL and he just started laughing. I am still am not sure if it was at me or at himself for hiring me. Any how a couple of months later I had to tell him that I was going to quit my job because I wanted to move to Minneapolis to start Art School. He tried so hard to talk me out of it. He told me I was really great at my job and that I could go far with it. But me being stubborn I told him that I had to follow my dreams because that is what I believed life was all about. He respected my decision and wished me the best of luck.
During my first quarter at school he would send me case files and ask me what my opinion was and how would I argue the case. I would read through them and then send him back my opinions and what I had found in some research. He would write me back telling me that i was either insane or genius. He always asked me how film school was going and was very supportive. One day he called me up and said that he had quit his position at the firm and decided that he wanted to pursue his dream. He was a musician and singer song writer. I told him that was incredible and he will never regret it. I told follow your dream man, follow your dream. He said I had inspired him to do so. We even talked about working together on a project shooting a music video for one of his songs on an album he was releasing. He sent me updates on his shows and links to songs he recorded. Unfortunately through the years we began to lose contact. I was focused on school and he was focused on his music. Life takes you in different directions. The reason I am writing this is because I got an email from his wife this morning telling me that Ken had passed away last year of cancer and that it was one of his final wishes that the album he was working be finished and released. It broke my heart reading that email. She asked me to share the link to his bandcamp page and spread his music. I have been listening to it all day. And in honor of a great man and a great friend and musician I am sharing His music with you.
Friends and Family this is the final album by a friend of mine.
Ken “Feldiken” Feldman
Please take a few minutes and let it play.
It's great for everyone including all ages. Play it for your children.
