Slangism (353-365)
When I see a person that I hope to get a picture of, I ask. I am not a big fan of the "surreptitious snap" - not knocking those who do it, it's just not for me. Don't get me wrong, I HAVE done it, but if possible I try to avoid it. 1), I would appreciate if someone would ask me if they wanted a picture of me, and B )it gives me the opportunity to meet some pretty amazing people.
Meet Tyrue Slang Jones. I was at the Star Lounge Coffee Bar/Dark Matter, and how could I NOT notice Slang standing there? By himself, with the shoes perfectly accenting the mural. I asked, he agreed. I mentioned how the shoes worked with the mural. He responded with "I painted that."
Already long story short, Slang painted this mural (and the design on their coffee mugs, and much of their interior artwork) amongst so many other pieces and projects seen around the city. Amazing works of art that you just kind of take for granted because they seem to have ALWAYS been there.
Some people are just born an artist. It is effortless (or at least it seems that way). This describes Slang. Watch some of his videos and see if you don't agree.
