In year 20 of having a brand/space, I don’t focus on cultivating things for my friends. I primarily create things based on my collectors and customer base. I feel like core friend support starts fading after year 3 lol
The new @cherrymountainarts isn’t going to be a gallery. It’ll be a true public arts space with a gift shop. I fucking hate traditional gallery culture. It’s not welcoming, friendly or dynamic enough to ME.

Ta-Nehisi Coates humorously explains why relationships behind words , like calling a spouse “honey,” matters in relation to the N-Word and Black people.

Don’t let where you’re from limit where you go. If I listened to Chicago art snobs, I would’ve quit before I started. Traveling and building relationships elsewhere changed everything. No gallery in my hometown ever reached out, so I built my own lane and did it differently.
The tally of white Americans who don’t know that Puerto Rico is in the United States is drastically rising as we approach halftime.
Chicago did do something special….the finished lol. They did all of the shit the Packers failed to do. Just take the loss with class.
#Packers S Javon Bullard on the loss to Chicago:
"No disrespect to them, but it ain't sh*t that they did. It's us. We gotta finish. You know we whoopin' they a** the whole game. We gotta finish. ... Chicago ain't do sh*t special."
