Is the Art Market a Scam?
In 2005, a Salvator Mundi believed a replica was auctioned off from the property of Baton Rouge industrialist Basil Clovis Hendry Sr. at the St. Charles Gallery auction house in New Orleans. It had been highly overpainted to the degree of looking like a replica, and was characterised as “a wreck, dark and depressing” before restoration. The picture was purchased for $1,175 by a group of art dealers. The team thought there was a chance that this low-quality piece may be Leonardo’s long-lost original.

Downtime Boredom
Little stories that interest the new, on your own, by yourself the point is the view. A day off where you finally feel you can breathe, you obtain it like an item in Zelda but now what? You check to see if it's peace because you have been so busy moving around. You find stuff to do as if to make yourself seem like you are not wasting your time but is it really okay to just be here, alone.

The beauty in graffiti's artform. Top Story - May 2022.
Years ago graffiti was viewed as an illegal activity and condemned as malicious destruction of property. It was seen as mere vandalism by the wayward wanton youth who was a waster of time and was also a scourge on society. We never stopped to think that it was the youth trying to express themselves in the only way that they had available to them. That they found and saw beauty in the freeform of expression giving their voices an outlet and substantive value. Beauty is everywhere. One just has to look hard enough.

I'm a Bubblehead
You see them everywhere now. Stickers on cars, laptops, water bottles, and everywhere in between. You see people with awesome, yet random fandom t-shirts. You see what looks to be merch from your favorite show, but can’t find it on any official website. You see great retro art that imitates the styles of the 70s and 80s. And always wonder, why can I get that?

A New Voice
Sometimes a voice wants to find itself without looking in the mirror. I was like that once. I felt like my voice had been stolen from me– a few times, in fact– because I refused to look at it in the mirror or acknowledge its semi-tragic existence. Around me there were other voices and I shopped around a bit. Peering through the handprint-plastered windows, I tried to adopt the voices I saw around me because I refused to look at how broken mine was.

My Totally Healthy Obsession With Clowns
Clowns. Love them or hate them, they’re here to stay. Most people I speak with can’t stand them, but I never really get a good reason why. It's usually some dry, boring response like "clowns are creepy" or something like that.

Faces Among Us
The Turkish word, Meraki means, “The soul, creativity or love put into something; The essence of yourself that is put into your work.” I recently noticed this definition displayed at my gym and I think it accurately describes my stage of life right now.
