STORY BEHIND YOUR PSEUDO:

I wanted a name that is intrinsic to graffiti and everyone must say if they talk about adding arrows to their own pieces, regardless of if they like me or not.

FIRST AND RECENT GRAFFITI EXPERIENCES:

It was part of the breakdancing explosion in the early 80′s that swept the world. I have painted on and off for 30 years and have experienced the best and worst that graffiti has to offer. I’ve painted in Brazil, Russia, India, Malaysia, Korea, USA, and pretty much every country in Europe. I am now doing a project in Israel and Palestine working on an art project with kids affected by the conflict there.

INFLUENCES AND INSPIRATION:

All the guys I paint with. B boy attitude.

OTHER EXPERIENCES THAT HAVE HELPED SHAPING YOUR STYLE:
