Yup, me agian. :D ANyways, today I went to college right, day went ok, nothing worth noting. But what happened on the way home is. So I get off the first bus and getting ready to hop on the second one. Then I see this old black bumy man. So I accidently step on his bag. He's like, "you watch it man" So I'm like, Sorry. He's like it's ok. So I wait, then he's like, where you coming from. I tell him. He's like, your something special. I can tell, by the way your name. I tell him. Then he says, the lord has big things for you Tino. I'm like he does for everyone. So then he starts telling me about how he is from the Midwest and how God put him here in Sac. Then he just start telling me about God and stuff. Then, he took out the contents of his bag. IT was art. Not the best art, but art nonetheless. So I look, then he starts explaining. *I'm thinking, what he has art in that trash bag?* So he starts to explain his first picture. It was a group of Like people, but not people, soul looking ppl. He said, he called it gang banging. It you looked harder, he said, there the christian in the middle, and the people kicking at him are the devil and his people. *I'm like wow, this guy is pretty deep* He also showed me a tree that had no leaves in a barren desert. He said that's the future. Tough times are ahead. Will you be that tree. Will you survive the harsh winter coming up. So then he's like, I don't draw these, God uses me.
After all that, I asked, you sell them. He's like no, i show em at shows, but I'd never sell. I've been offered lots of me. I was like why not, he said because his art was him. And it symbolized what he made through God. *wow, pretty deep for a bum* So I took down his name and his art name. his art name is whiteshoes. SInce God is leading him. Later, he just kept telling me that I had big things ahead. Don't let money take you over.
Anyways, I just thought I'd document that exchange. Since this is my diary and its about my life. :D Have a nice day people
