Clifewonder

**PSA**Alright, so it been a minute, and I feel guilty. But hey I refuse to start every post with an apology about why I don't write more often, so from here on out I am just going to jump in like nothing has changed, like I just updated you yesterday. Ok? Cool. Phew, now that I have gotten that off my chest we will now return to your regularly scheduled programing... ; )***

So, there is this dude I know, his name is Clifton, and he is MAD talented. If you were to look up the word "artist" I am sure a picture (hopefully taken by me) of him would be listed as a synonym. Let me tell you a little about what he can do. He writes and performs Christian hip hop music, he is a graphic designer, he paints, he produces videos, basically the list is goes on, this cat is blessed. Not only does he do all those things, he does them well. I mean he is awesome at what he does! I am actually trying to aquire one of his paintings now to put up on my lonely wall, I think it would definitely spice things up a bit. But anyway, about a month ago Cliff asked me to take some pictures of him for his album. He said he wanted to get some in the barber shop, and at a few spots downtown. Of course I was honored, so I was like YEAH, let's do this! Last weekend was his shoot, and MAN did we come away with some nice stuff. Here, take a look.


















I loved working with Clifton. His level of creativity is darn near genius, he has already taken a couple of the shots from our time together and turned them into promos for his album. See what he has done.



Like I said, the dude is nice. If you don't know, now you know.
Be blessed,

P.s. His album is "Velocity", the debut single is "Lovely" -the EP is due out Spring 2010. Look for it.
