"Missing Piece" is a stunning exploration of color, form, and texture, all converging to create a visually striking and thought-provoking composition. At 20x24 inches, this piece captures attention with its bold display of irregularly shaped patches in a spectrum of vibrant colors, including vivid reds, blues, greens, yellows, and pinks. Each hue seems to independently dance across the canvas, yet together, they form a harmonious and dynamic mosaic-like appearance.What sets "Missing Piece" apart is the unique process of outlining these colorful segments with thin white borders created using hot glue. This inventive technique not only adds a tactile element to the artwork but also emphasizes the distinction and vibrance of each individual patch. The hot glue borders provide a subtle yet effective structure, giving form to the seemingly sporadic yet intentionally organized composition.The spontaneity and lively interplay of colors suggest movement and creativity, inviting viewers to lose themselves in a world where order and chaos coalesce in perfect balance. "Missing Piece" is not only a feast for the eyes but also an inspiring testament to the joy and innovation of abstract art, challenging observers to discover their own interpretation and emotional response to this captivating mosaic of colors and forms.

I'm pleased to reveal my latest artwork, "Calm N Da Mist of Chaos," a striking 24x30 piece that embraces the dynamic energy of abstract art. This creation features a captivating blend of hot glue and metallic acrylic paint, introducing a rich tapestry of textures and effects. At its core lies a mesmerizing pattern of concentric, irregular shapes in shades of blue, teal, and purple, bordered by jagged lines that suggest movement and energy. Surrounding this vibrant center are contrasting sections of swirling designs in green, purple, gold, and black, each contributing to the artwork's dynamic essence. The unique process of using hot glue as a medium allowed me to experiment with texture and form in innovative ways, adding depth and dimension. "Calm N Da Mist of Chaos" is my exploration of the interplay between tranquility and turbulence, capturing the eye with its bold color scheme and intriguing composition. This piece invites viewers to experience a visual journey amid chaos, seeking moments of calmness within.

I'm excited to unveil my latest creation, "Connected," a 20x24 canvas piece that takes abstract art to new heights by incorporating an innovative use of hot glue and metallic colors. This artwork is all about the vibrant interplay of hues and textures, highlighted by the addition of four 8x11 sized canvases that are glued to the larger 20x24 canvas, creating a striking two-dimensional effect. The blending of colors with metallic effects results in a vivid hue that dances across the canvas, further accentuated by silver painted highlights tracing through the composition, offering a dynamic presentation that invites viewers to engage in its visual dialogue. The use of hot glue as a medium was a unique and experimental approach, allowing me to sculpt and layer textures in ways I hadn’t before. Inspired by the desire to push the boundaries of abstract art, "Connected" is about embracing unconventional materials and techniques to create something truly distinctive. I invite you to experience this bold and spirited piece that celebrates connectivity through artistry.

Emerging from the vibrant interplay of color and form, I present to you "Flowetry." In this 10x20 acrylic masterpiece, I invite you to embark on a journey where each brushstroke sings of motion and life. As the interlocking shapes unfold, they create a harmonic dance of blue, purple, red, orange, green, and yellow, each outlined with intention, igniting the canvas with energy and vitality. Here, within this horizontal cascade, you'll find a symphony—an invitation to explore the fluidity that lies within us all. The seamless flow between each hue speaks to the power of unity, guiding the spirit through an ever-changing landscape of possibility and wonder. "Flowetry" is my homage to the boundless potential of imagination. It reminds us that art is not static; it evolves, it connects, it transforms. I hope this piece inspires you to see beyond form and color, to discover the beauty in movement and the endless pathways it opens. Together, let's embrace this dynamic dance and celebrate the infinite rhythms of creativity.

Introducing "Abundant Life," my latest creation that invites you to step into a realm where nature's resilience meets the power of vision. This 10x20 piece, crafted with acrylic paint and Sharpies, unfolds as a serene oasis amidst a vast, barren landscape. It's a testament to the strength and beauty that can emerge from even the most desolate surroundings.Through a monochromatic palette embedded within a unique rectangular hex shape, "Abundant Life" captures the essence of renewal and abundance. It's a visual celebration of potential, a reminder that even in the harshest conditions, life flourishes, driven by the enduring river of hope.In creating this artwork, I sought to embody the profound notion that sustenance and vitality can thrive where they are least expected. My hope is that "Abundant Life" encourages each of us to embrace the innate possibilities within ourselves, to discover the rich, nurturing streams waiting just beneath the surface of our own challenges. May this piece inspire you to recognize and cultivate your inner oasis, letting its waters guide you through any desert you may encounter.

Peace & Beadz:I'm thrilled to introduce "Peace & Beads," a vibrant testament to tranquility and the beauty of human connection. This 10x20 artwork, meticulously crafted with acrylic paint markers and Sharpies, invites you to witness a peace sign adorned with a rich array of beaded bracelets. Each bead and hue tells its own unique story, harmoniously coming together on the canvas to symbolize unity and individuality.Through this piece, I aimed to echo the essence of my handcrafted glass beaded bracelets—a tangible reflection of peace, expressed through color and creativity. The diverse colors fuse to form a tapestry of energy, each one resonating with the soul’s unending quest for serenity and understanding.Creating "Peace & Beads" was a journey of blending vibrant shades to craft an image that calls upon us to embrace the multitude of voices and perspectives that shape our world. I hope it encourages you to find peace within yourself and to celebrate the unique beauty in our collective diversity. Let this work inspire you to wear your story proudly, as we all contribute our unique beads to the grand bracelet of life.

Screen Dreams

"How can we understand why people believe in unrealistic escapes?
Many people yearn for a better life than the one they're currently experiencing. They seek solace in unhealthy coping mechanisms like excessive drinking, drug use, or unhealthy relationships. These behaviors offer a temporary escape from their problems, but they ultimately create more issues.
Reality is a necessary part of growth.
While it's tempting to avoid pain, it's crucial for personal development. Challenges help us build character, resilience, and understanding. Just as a bodybuilder needs stress to build muscle, the mind needs challenges to grow.
Focus on the present and embrace reality.
Instead of trying to escape from our problems, we should focus on dealing with them head-on. Every day presents opportunities for growth and learning. By making conscious decisions and facing challenges, we can develop our character and become stronger individuals.
God's plan for us includes challenges.
It's important to remember that God has a plan for our lives, and that plan often includes challenges. These challenges are meant to help us grow and become better people. By trusting in God and embracing the reality of our lives, we can find strength and purpose."

Could I Be...by Terrance W. Hinton

 

Could I be the one I need

Instead of needing the one to be

To those who find no reason

To be the one indeed

 

Could I be the answer

To the questions I may ask

Or should I be dismayed

By my own malicious past

 

Could I be the darkness

That awaits my every move

Or should I replace the darkness

With the Light that shows and proves

 

Could I be the concept

That fuels my dreams to be

Or should I let to dreams be dreams

And only exist in reality

 

Could I be the disturbance

The blocks the flow of thought

Or should I be the hero

That saves the mind from naught

 

Could I be the instigator

Of my own confusion

The blocks the very message

That says, “it’s an illusion”

 

Could I be the mistake

That aligns with regret

Or should I be the answer

That requires much respect

 

Could I be the guardian

The protects the dream

To hold ground against the opposers

For good they bring no means

 

Could I be the beginning

With no end in site

Of an everlasting ponder

Come day come night

 

Could I be...

 

Wait 4 U N the Morning by Terrance W. Hinton


 

Today is Gonna Be A Good Day!

GreenLight 🚥🚦🚥

*GREENLIGHT: the act of women sending sexual-nonverbal messages towards a man whom she desires to be intimate with.

I was having a conversation with a young lady coworker, recently, and it was very interesting and enlightening, to say the least. 
The conversation started as a typical discussion about former coworker that had posted some questionable things on social media. 
You know the type, "I DUNNO WHY SHE POSTED (this and that)!"... "HOPE IT DOESN'T INTERFERE WITH HER NEW JOB!"...type of dialogue. Eventually, the conversation shifted from the former coworker as the subject matter, into the social relationship between Men and Women. 
Now before I continue, I must give a name of my co-conversationalist in order to move forward in this particular story. 
Let's call her "Tiff".
So, here we are, Tiff and having a conversation in which has shifted into a Man is this and a Woman does that...then we went into a matter about Women with children and the social aspects of the two as far as dealing with Men. Then, I asked her a question...

ME: "I was told by a couple of women that whenever there's a child(ren) involved, the father is,  automatically, available for sex...is that true...?" 
Tiff: "Yeah, that's about right...!"
ME: "No matter what he is doing. No matter who he is with. No where he is or going....the baby's father is not exempt from the child(ren)'s mother's sexual partner...?"
Tiff: "Yup, doesn't matter."
ME: "So, okay, on any given day...when the child(ren)'s father comes over to pick up the child(ren), or have a conversation about the child's endeavors, activities, mental status, school or whatever, the mother would, could and will give the father lots of negativity, embarrassment, and/or attitude...for maybe, no particular reason at times...making him feel less than himself and sometimes, in front of the child(ren)..."
Tiff: "Unfortunately, it goes like that, sometimes..."
ME: "Okay then turn around, on the next day or the next time the father comes over...she decides to give him the (GREENLIGHT) just because she can...?"
Tiff: "But, it's up to him to follow through or not...!"
ME: "So, if he doesn't follow through, for whatever reason...there's a problem, right?"
Tiff: "Yup, that's right!"
ME: "But...it's the mother who is setting up the situation...why would it be a problem if he doesn't follow through...at all...?"
Tiff: "Because she wants what she wants when she wants it...!"
ME: "But isn't that some kind of entrapment that could, possibly, lead to another baby...?"
Tiff: "I guess you can call it entrapment but, it is what it is. The baby part is possible. "
ME: " This is crazy! This is insane!"
Tiff: "Yeah, it seem like Men can't catch a break."
ME: "Not even to scratch his own itch...!"

So, there you have it, fellas...!
If you ever wonder about your relationship with your child(ren)'s mother and why she is being difficult at times, this is just one of the many reasons why...so just beware when she gives you the GREENLIGHT!

Peace ✌🏿
