#HIT&RUN #AHOLSNIFFSGLUE #DOYOURJOB

On 8/9/12, I went to the opening of Ahol Sniffs Glue's solo art show at Gregg Shienbaum Fine Art. Smooth beats from Metro Zu, and awesome artwork by Ahol, couldn't get any better then that. The show will be running till the 27th, so I encourage everyone who is here in Miami to go check it out, if you haven't already. I dropped some questions to Ahol, just so you all can get the scoop on who Ahol is. Also I only posted a few photos, because everyone should DO THEIR JOB and go check this dudes artwork out, you won't be disappointed.

Q&A with Ahol Sniffs Glue

MSA: So every artist has their beginning, where did it start for you?
AHOL: I use to draw characters and make my civilization of creatures and based them on people around.  I was inspired by my friend Gonz and his ex Totals.  I then started to get more and more serious about creating.  That's pretty much it.

MSA: How long have you been writing/painting?
AHOL: 10+ years, don't remember exactly.

MSA: So it was all over the local news, and we all saw it on Facebook. But tell my followers what happened that night of the Hit & Run accident.
AHOL: I was leaving work on a rainy day on my Honda Ruckus. Some lady wasn't paying attention and she turned into me head on.  I ended up under her car, she backed up, pulled up next to me, I asked for help and she said sorry and drove away before I could get her plate. Sux

MSA: What was your main influence that propelled you into the art world?
AHOL: I was inspired by my brother and by Gonz and Totals, creativity is the ultimate.  Im glad I pursued it.

MSA: Tell me something about your art style, any significance to those eyes you create?
AHOL: The eyes are the sleepy drugged out eyes from my characters.  They are numb from all the shit we are exposed to. 

MSA: Any funny stories of being out, bombing with your crew?
AHOL: My friends are awesome, ssk is the best. I love my dogs.

MSA: SSK The Stay Shitty Komitee... How did it form? Who reps it?
AHOL: Ssk is gonz's making, there's a lot of people in it, even people that don't paint.  Some people in the crew are gonz, 3i7, disem, audet, elite, stress, kombs, asik, where, Jonas, bruk. I'm sure I'm missing some

MSA: What's your favorite thing about being an artist?
AHOL: I love creating, regardless of what it is.  My life has purpose through creativity

Sick Nasty...

Ticoe from TcP is sick nasty with the paint. This video shows just that. The video was directed, filmed, and edited by Roberto "BEANS" Granizo, who is part of Primal Pop Media Works.

TooK x CyNiC TcP...

The style is, and I can't stress this enough, incredible. Typoe and Cynic killed it!!! These pieces are amazing and the colors are perfect. There is nothing left to say about these to artist, except they "Taking City Property" any chance they get... (RiP Took)

The Crunk Punks...

TCP has some really talented writers on the crews roster. You have to give respect to their work, each writer bringing an individual style, but staying organized and fresh all at the same time. Mad props to the TCP crew for keeping their steez "Miami."

Chor Boogie...

I'm sure we are all fans of Chor Boogie's art work. Mixing his technique he learned from other street artist and his influence from other renaissance and also more modern artist, like Van Gogh and Dali just to name a few. This Cali native always shows love to Miami by bringing more color to an already colorful city. This piece was done during Art Basel, and it sure is amazing.

Pluto...

I was going through my pictures and I came across this piece by Pluto, which looks extremely intricate. The lines are so clean, and the colors really pop. An amazing style of shapes for the letters. True skill and dedication went into making this piece, and it payed off.

Cold Blooded "Sasn"

Sasn has an incredible style. This piece has a great color scheme, and the letters look so futuristic. Miami has some of the most talented artist and Sasn is definitely on that list.

The New York Wall...

During Art Basel, a lot of people found themselves going from one event to the next. What they did not realize is the real action was in Wynwood. An insane amount of graff writers and street artist had taken over the streets of Wynwood. I was invited by Samuel Mark, an influential artist from New York, to come by and film the wall he was working on. Samuel and a few other artist created an amazing mural that mixed graff and street art. Signifying graff writers and street artist are equal to one another. They do what they do for one reason and that is to occupy as much wall space as possible. If you ever find yourself in Wynwood, I urge you to go check out this amazing wall, located at NW 2nd Ave and 22nd st. To all the artist who participated, Stay Up, Go Big, and Never Quit. Samuel Mark, Fumero, AOM, Abso, Sev,Veks, Velo, Lost, Alec Monopoly, Werds, Eres, Leaf, Json, Meno, and Beaso, you all did an amazing job! (Click the photo's to enlarge)
