I saw these Baboons a few times on my travels and always respected their space - they can turn quickly and are very territorial around their young. This guy let me know who was boss!
The Women's Congress of the 1893 Columbian World's Exposition (Chicago World's Fair) proposed that each state should select a unique floral emblem to represent the state at the exposition. This idea evolved into the concept of a National Garland of Flowers.
The National Garland of Flowers was the inspiration for the adoption of official floral emblems across the country and can be credited with a trend that has led to the adoption of symbols and emblems from official state trees and birds to official micro-invertebrates.
In the 1890s, when the National Garland of Flowers was conceived, Oklahoma wasn't even a state. Oklahomans were serious about "becoming a state" however and set out to select an official floral emblem that would appropriately represent their share of the landscape.
Oklahoma considered the passionflower, but mistakenly believed that Arkansas had already made that selection. (It is true that the Federation of Women's Clubs in Arkansas was heartily endorsing the passionflower there, but the passionflower was never made official.)
Another plant was held in high esteem by some in Oklahoma. It was the mistletoe.
Though conversations about the adoption of Oklahoma's floral emblem may be lost to history, it's reported that the mistletoe served to decorate settler's graves when no other flowers were available. Perhaps more generally, the color of the evergreen mistletoe throughout the winter is said to symbolize the perseverance of early settlers. In fact, the green of its foliage and the white of its berries serve as the official colors of the Oklahoma today.
Spent some time practicing some 3 pt lighting, hair light behind the drape wasn't bright enough so I didn't get the transparent effect I was looking for. But none the less I'm pleased with the results. Personal opinion: best self portrait, despite the partial nudity I feel it's very classy.
All I can really say is that this show was bigger and better than I had ever hoped for. Evolve took on a life of its own and so many of the artists shared their own powerful stories of overcoming whatever life has tossed along their path.
Over 20 photographers, ceramicists and artists were part of this event. Gay, straight, lesbian, bi-sexual, transgender, Black Latino, White, Armenian, poor, broke, rich, wealthy, HIV positive, HIV negative and even two homeless individuals were all artists in this show. The was a direct representation of what Los Angeles looks like and together we showed why we are the City of Angels
About 400 attended the opening at Art Share-LA in Downtown Los Angeles. The event was a complete success with people coming from as far north as Sacramento as far south as San Diego. New York, Denver and even two folks from Atlanta made the trek to the Evolve opening. I was completely blown away.
Big thanks to all the artists for their beautiful pieces, my family, friends and supporters for continuing to embrace my work through Project KengiKat and Do Something Saturday and to everyone who donated and attended the event I want to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.

This one has been around a while but I've added onto it. It just struck me while glancing at it and the mood hit me to add on.

“An evolved intellect”
The High Evolutionary, Herbert Edgar Wyndham, meets a like minded friend in Ex Nihilo
Big fan of the F4 retro card gimmick, even more so of the retro Spider-Man cards, and as soon as I saw this guy I knew there was an unfamiliar character I needed to take a deep dive into.
Looking for a digital trade paperback of the Evolutionary Wars (88) if anyone has a suggestion? Not seeing it on Amazon or Marvel’s app.
Very cool sculpt and colors on this guy. Happy to add him to the Cosmic shelf!

A project at college to design the identity of a company that produces paper out of completely recycled paper and de-inked pulp. I decided to go for a more complex logo to show a diverse range in my portfolio. More to come after this...
Impressive statue and presentation. I think it's the best layout and certainly impressive on the big screen. Didn't watch on the little screens
