OK! OK! IM SORRY!

Well Helllllooooooooooo lovers and friends!!!

Many apologies 4 the harshness of my last post.. being that we all know the impermanence of situations, and that we are all mature adults here, I think it is safe to say that we ought to remain friends and continue on our respektive paths of righteousness dream chasing and fullfillmint.

However, I would like to apologize 4 using the word "BITCH," as it can be demeaning towards woman, and Tupac would not approve. Nor would I, but I think that for now, all though he is hiding in Cuba and some believe him dead, that Tupac's opinion continues to have more pull in persuasive comparison to Humble Beginnings.

This blog post will be something of a recovery zone.. a few paintings that my buddy has 4 sale, as well maybe some stream of consciousness type of situation (which u c occurring currently)

Here are the paintings in question:

beautiful MONSTEROUS painting!

so warm.. my homie really does have gr8 taste in classic style work

This is post-impressionistik period Rembrandt painting titled
"Relentless Optimist"

nvm already.. nobody even gets it!

hip-hop fliers from the freestyle event (the first i've been to)

Juki (one of our cats) has been sneaking out at night and putting her scent
all over town-- supah smart.. have u ever heard of cat going to jail? i dont think so!

And with all that said.. Humble Beginnings.. I will take a deep breath.. I will be updating the look of u and adding more art to the sidebars.. untile then, my faithful tuners-in. i <3 u so $%&*$@# much!

RE-UP

After the Benny Gold Show, & of course it just hadn't been enough, so Humble Beginnings & friends started off towards 1AM 4 the opening of the 123 Klan show taking place there. Along the way, I snapped a few photos of interesting stuff along the way.



Beautiful mural in the Mission.. with some sketchy lookin' cats
watching me photo them.. haha.. weirdos!

Probably everybody who has kicked it in the Mission has seen this..
something about it caught my eye though, I had 2 get me a photo

Then my homie Dan bumps into this pleasant young woman.. and I mean literally a few
blocks from aformenntioned statue.. I met Christ Guadalupe! Apparently
she does live tatts on Valencia.. time 4 Humble Beginnings 2 go into stalker mode!
