Some background info... about a month ago I got an email from a model I worked with, Mario Cubillos, asking me why I had distributed his image to a trashy male website. Well, I hadn't. I hope that this photo articulates how I feel about copyright violators.

After contacting the website, I tracked the woman down and sent her a long email. I don't think she realized the impact that copyright violation has on artists, and I feel that I was able to communicate it to her effectively. And despite the implications of the photo, I did not track her down and execute Dim Mak, Touch of Death upon her.

You know, this got a DD... but at the end of the day, I hope that I am not remembered like this. Copyright violation isn't something that preoccupies me regularly... when I made it, it was simply on the top of my mind.

The point is this: if you have decided to drop by, I humbly invite you to check out the rest of my work; I feel that it is better representative of my view that everything in life is to be appreciated. As is, I feel this DD may suggest that the rest of my portfolio is full of hellfire and damnation. Hopefully you will have the opportunity to see that hellfire and damnation comprise a very small portion.
