I also posted one of Photos of my Self-Portrait :: Unmasked on BP STYLE
Click here and read what this what the community on BP has to say about a "Painted Face" in BP STYLE DOs and DON'Ts
I found this very revealing so far, I hope they never learn the true reasons of why the man in the photo has paint on his face, but just the reactions with their true nature to share an opinion or pass judgment without much thinking really inspires the artist in me to see such strong opinions of the human spirit.
Thank You if you have clicked from that page to this one to find out what was really behind the face ( smile )
It's all about ART as Activism - I think SAMO would be have proud - Rest in Peace Jean-Michel Basquiat

The responses have been amazing... people really surprise me. I did not think STYLE had so many enslaved mentally. I enjoyed the Harlem Renaissance Wall Street guy the most so far.
Please do note this is part of a campaign to raise awareness for Sickle Cell Disease so I am linking this feature all over the net... but as a painter this was an awesome experience. Yall crack me up.
Please read up on Jean-Michel Basquiat check out some of his video interviews on Youtube. Don't worry about your criticism of my Art, what can your criticism of my Style or Art do to me that Sickle Cell Disease has not?

Art Criticism and Jean-Michel Basquiat
This is for a much greater purpose.
I call my style Haitian Superflat - an homage to Takashi Murakami's great style and vision. I would like to do for Haitian Art what Murakami has done for Japanese Modern Art, but I'll settle for living just a little longer than Basquiat even if poverty keeps me from painting the things I have seen in my mind.
PEACE
