Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It is not!!!!
I started to play band in 1998, then play play play play, everywhere, every time, a little bit walk and stop, and work!!!
I did over 1600 gigs !!! I learn how to communicate with people, now I know how to have fun!!!!
I have not painted bet 2000 to 2011 because playing band so hard, but Austin open my art door again in 2011.
It is mural on Eastside King food truck!!!!
Then I restart to do art!!!!
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I’m doing art, murals, paintings, designs, art show on gallery, also live painting (9’x7′ on tarp, in 30 min), music band “Peelander-Z”, solo acoustic, also solo live and live painting (mix performance).
I’m thinking of making it easy to understand for the audience my all type of performance!!!!
That’s my proud!!!!
I don’t have great skills of music, art, but I know how to have fun with audience!!!
This is my special skill!!! Come there and join me!!!!
The crisis has affected us all in different ways. How has it affected you and any important lessons or epiphanies you can share with us?
Yes, before it, we did a lot of shows (every year, over 100 shows in US), but it is not possible to do it, I started to paint every day at my studio and thinking of making money with art!!!!
Now I’m a real artist.
This crisis is horrible, but it gave me ‘important lessons’!!!
