The kind of friends who believe in you. The kind who see the work before the world sees it. And the kind who show up with a camera and say, “Let’s get it.” Recently, I got to talk with my friend LeXander Bryant. He’s that kind of friend. LeXander has been traveling through the Global South filming life, neighborhoods, and artists. It’s part of a project he calls We Are the Archive. I’m grateful he pointed the lens toward my studio in East Nashville. “The story of the streets gets told on the streets.” Shabazz Larkin Part of the conversation happened while I was doing finishing touches on some huge portraits of artists with roots in Tennessee. Which, BTW, will soon live inside the Bankers Alley Hotel, here in Nashville. Standing there, looking at these works, I started thinking about how art begins to live once it leaves the studio. People will walk past it. People will sit underneath it. People will make significant memories around it. Few will stop in awe. It’s a pity. But there is a reward for those that do. That’s how the archive grows. It becomes a backdrop for the germination of rememberings, ideas, and conversations. LeXander put together this short film. I’m excited to share it with you. The archive keeps growing. For the first time, I’m opening commissions for walls and public spaces that need art.If you know a new building popping up, a school, a park, a hotel or any place that deserves a story on the wall — send it my way.

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
Hello, and welcome. You’re receiving this because you were part of a community or list I’ve been connected to in the past. I wanted to personally welcome you here and briefly share what this space is about, so you can decide if it’s right for you. This Substack is where I share art in progress, meditations, writing, and reflections from my studio and mindfulness practice in Nashville. It’s less about finished work and more about the path itself—how creativity, stillness, discipline, and compassion shape a life over time. I’ve maintained a daily meditation practice since 2018, and I’m walking the Bodhisattva path through art and practice—not as a teacher or authority, but as someone committed to paying attention and sharing honestly along the way. Part of why this space exists is personal. I’m in recovery from an addiction to social media, and this Substack is an experiment in finding community off those platforms—slower, quieter, and without algorithms shaping the conversation.
