Jesse Billauer "LRO Founder" in front of my donated painting... 2008 NBTO

This is me in Hawaii, holding the art piece that was Donated to the " LIFE ROLLS ON - FOUNDATION ". For there 2008 "Night By The Ocean" red carpet charity event... I was told it was a well talked about piece, viewed by many. I'm not sure the name of the person who had the winning bid, but I believe he was an actor on the TV show "Bay Watch".

More pictures from the event and ways to help out the cause can be found at the links below.

Jamaica Aug. 08 " CHINNA'S EARTHDAY"...

Last August I was fortunately blessed to fly from Hawaii, to Kingston, Jamaica... To join the two week long Earth Day Celebration for the Reggae Guitar Legend, Earl "Chinna" Smith... This is a picture of Chinna's refrigerator a day before the party. I painted all night, till the early morning; while the local youths played music and sung songs. The painting is the logo for " SECOND NATURE INC. ", one of the major sponsors for the party and live broadcast to the internet. Big Thanks to: Sean, Roquael, Chinna, Psalms, Sabrina, Jah Youth, Jeep Man, Bingi, and the rest "St. Andrew Park" CREW, the "ROCKER's" CREW, and SECOND NATURE INC., for all the good times and ire vibes...
