When I did my Uhura shoot, it was my first time doing a parody/artistic expression with characters portrayed by real actors. I was completely aware that there was only a slim possibility that they would see it. But on this occasion, having one of those actors to not only see it, but share it with his followers and laugh along with it, will be one of the most humbling experiences of artistic acceptance.
Totally honored and such an awesome gift from everyone in ATL and the GA voice. So many amazing people were nominated this year in all 100 categories and I'm humbled to have been able to be a part of that list. Definitely a great way to end a great run in this city.

So AMC Theaters decided to create a fan art album of spider-man and chose my image as one of 35 images to share with their 3.5 million likers!!! I did not submit anything, they found me. Thats pretty awesome. Favorite comment, "SpiderMan Mixed With Magic Mike? Trolol."
Still crying!!!! Thank you guys! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1412506312/heroes-villains-3

Whoaa...a whole article loving my TMNT!http://screencrush.com/cosplay-of-the-day-teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles/
This one gets noted because figured this is probably the only time I'll ever be featured on a rock radio stations site. Turtle power continues and no one has noticed yet that all the turtles are the same model. :)

Complete recognition on either side and realizing 10 years have passed. As of such of invited editorials, I am always an open door of discussion while very closed in some.
A remembered article read at the time where the image used to be that of a modified version of my image with that of a covering up that which was being show and displayed. Always an open discussion on that of the beauty of humanity and individuality where 10 years later perhaps it was of such a beautiful idea to learn how to introduce individuality and communal awareness towards acceptance in a manner where 10 years later there are those before and those after. What of that of a shared kiss if married to the idea of love one way or another while learning respect along the way?
