# About me

Glen “Foo” Brown was born in San Pablo, Philippines in August 20, 1981 and grew up in the streets of Alexandria, Virginia (Washington D.C. Tristate Area). In his early teen years he's committed “art crimes” as a graffiti artist, but was never caught by the Popo for his artistic felonious expression. With his ninja like skills he has climbed, ran, broke into abandoned buildings, and hopped many a fences and quickly gained the respect of fellow street artists. His tagging name or persona will never be revealed to the common folk, especially the authorities and will take to his death bed.

In the underground graffiti world, being 29 is too old to do anything as far as graffiti goes. “It's either you go and sellout and make t-shirts, shoes, clothing and out source your product to little kids in Bangladesh to make in sweatshops”, Glen states on his views of being a retired graffiti artist. Now an ex-graffiti artist he took his spraying with medium mentality and learned the ways of the airbrush by himself. In Spring of 2008, he retired and went indoors to express himself in other “legal” ways.

Upon learning the airbrush, Glen started to render and paint his friend's and family's portraits or anyone he found with an endearing personality and facial qualities. He would hold frequent photo shoots for these people and worked with budding photographers to capture them for reference for his paintings.

A college drop out, he looks forward to continue his pursuit of receiving his Bachelors of Science for Graphic Design sometime in the near future, or whenever he gets off his lazy ass.

You're welcome with regard to receiving your 1st Llama from me.

I agree with your Devious Journal entry of "I hate people who lie" ... sad this is that we all have a tendency to lie.

However, there are people who are more skilled at doing so and have no scruples about it. Those are the individuals which I detest.

Yeah, lawyers would fall beneath the category of individuals whom I consider "liars" ... albeit there are many others of whom I give that dubious label to as well (i.e. politicians, etc.).

Good deal on the "242" nickname for your own personal Llama.

Peace out bro.

Politicians are only puppets on a string. People are mindless sheep flocking to their empty words of promises and lies. CEOs and raving lunatics rule this world, not governments. Money is power, powerful enough to buy happiness and life.

On a lighter note: 242 it is.

Ah, but if you only knew how very empty or unhappy some of those individuals are.

Movie stars with fame / fortune / charisma / etc. who drown their emptiness in either drugs, drink, sex, money, phony religious ideas (i.e. cults like Scientology, etc.), and so on ... only to blow their brains out or hang themselves or overdose.

Sad.

A good adage in which to live by is this axiom:

"Be in this world, but not of it."
