hey now (you’re an all star)


36 x 20 inches  $9,898  

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me. I ain’t the sharpest tool in the shed. This smashmouth song was absolutely lodged in my brain for a while. “Hey Now (you’re an all star)” is a roll of everything that has been happening for me. So, the converse idea has been with me for a while. I briefly thought about doing a high heel but it is so not me. I had Shaundi in yellow Converse high tops when she was just a tot and I clearly remember a hot pink pair she outgrew, handing them down to me before they got stolen from me by Kaleo. This piece is us for sure. It’s my blues and greens, a little spot of graffiti and diamond plate, my stripes, my bubbles. I really love the recycled. There is a ring at the top right from a bottle I found in our neighborhood while walking my dogs. It has writing pressed into the glass that reads, “Federal law forbids sale or reuse of this bottle.” BAH HA HA HA! Some of the rings are from an antique water bottle that we kept change in till Shaundi broke it. And the sneaker? I’m so happy with that.  Yup! Just that tile took about 2 1/2 weeks with most of that work going in the trash. Its all good.
