9th grade. I remember seeing the new kid at school with the brand new Nike Air Hurraches. He stood up to that same group of "sneaker observers" on the playground. While walking home from school, I saw those Nikes swinging on the powerlines outsode the school grounds. .

8th grade, I finally got a fresh pair of white on white Nike Air Force Ones. Walking like a duck to keep them from creasing and getting dirty was a routine. While in line at lunch a girl said "ooo look at Ralphie... he think he fly!" and then purposely stepped on my toe. I took them home and cleaned them with a tooth brush and a white eraser. .

7th grade and I was the new kid in school, rocking my new uptempo maxes I saved my allowance to get. during lunch I was cornered by a group on the basketball court. The leader of the group looked down pointing at my feet and asked, "what size are those yo?". I looked him in the eye and responded... "my size", he gave me a head nod and left with the boys. Next day at lunch, they offered me a seat at their table. I sat with another group. .

New Series: "Look Up, light in the dark". #triptic Branching off its mother series #mysteryoftheflyingkicks . ill be painting things i saw growing up in the urban jungle. As kids in NYC all we had was each other and the streets to play in while our parents were at work. I would be outside all day rain sun or snow with my friends and would have to call home via payphone, to let my grand parents know where we were at every hour. Once those bright yellow buzzing street lights came on... it was time to rush home to the smell of grandma's cooking. A light in the dark. What were some places you have seen shoes like this? . 12x12 Oil on Canvas Available
