Back On The Saddle

By Braille • Jul 21st, 2009 • Category: Artists in Residence

Hello universe!!! I’ve spent the last couple months doing a lot of self evaluation and growth. It was sparked due to some circumstances and trials I was facing but it ultimately ended up being beneficial. With some situations in life, no matter how difficult they are, we either allow them to rob [...]

The Vision: Act 1

By Braille • Feb 18th, 2009 • Category: Artists in Residence

On Feb. 12th I had my first performance at a correctional facility for 2009. It was at the Clarke County Juvenile Corrections Facility in Vancover, WA. I’ve had a few opportunities like this in the past but this year I am intentionally seeking out chances to speak to the youth. Performances at [...]


Working Together

By Braille • Jan 14th, 2009 • Category: Artists in Residence

The last couple of weeks have been an emotional roller coaster for me. I was feeling really discouraged as an artist – sort of a mixture of feeling tired and ineffective. It was just some self doubt messing with me, and also some intimidation. Sometimes I run into the question, “what next?,” [...]

Stop the Violence

By Braille • Sep 4th, 2008 • Category: Artists in Residence

I’ve always been a peaceful guy. I’ve never punched anyone in the face and I’ve never been punched in the face. I got in one or two scuffles during middle school and I picked on my little brother a bit when I was younger but that’s it. I went to public school [...]
