"Braids & Whips" ink, charcoal. 11" x 14"

From my "Elegy" solo show. Small image on figure's chest originally from the book "Broken Spears" which is a written account of the European invasion/attack on the Mexica empire. This piece has one of my favorite titles so far.

"Elegy" ink, charcoal. 14" x 11"

Illustration from my "Elegy" show. Really trying to stick to the rule of only painting/illustrating people that I know or photographed. This one is based on my good brother Juan (Wonway) that I've known since we were 10.

"Land or Death" acrylic, ink. 30" x 40"

A better photo of a piece from my new series. Land or Death. Punto.

"FTP" Acrylic, ink, rhinestones. 36" x 36"

This was shown before on my blog (in the entry showing my solo show) but wanted to re-post with a better photo. One of my favorites so far that I've painted in a while. I'm glad I did the rhinestones, my lady's idea. Enjoy and Learn.

Hey peoples, sorry for not giving you any updates after my solo show. In a nutshell I took off to the Bay Area after my show for about 2 weeks, got some great feedback from my show, hella people hit me up about some prints (if you want one hit me up minchovega@gmail.com) and now I'm back in Brooklyn.
If any of you guys know I work in an unique high school in the Lower East Side that is host to one of very few legal graffiti art/mural spots in New York. Every year we paint the walls of our roof and have an opening. Here is a couple shots of my new piece in progress. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna change a lot before I am done. I was really trying to be okay with not liking what I did and going over it. It was loosely based on a quick sketch so the development of the piece is still on-going. And I'm okay with it!
