    Drift began doing illegal graffiti in New York in 1992 at the age of 14. For over a decade, Drift's path in life took him in and out of art school and numerous work experiences. Illegal graffiti and spraycan art, however, remained his creative passion. Following his second arrest and conviction of vandalism in 2002, Drift began to redirect his energies into commercial art in and attempt to stabilize his life. Despite his fear of New York City's "3 Strikes" campaign, an aggressive attempt to deter graffiti artists from vandalism by charging third time offenders with a felony offense, Drift found it difficult to give up his passion and remained semi-active in New York’s graffiti culture. In September of 2002 Drift was offered a position as the art director of a Hong Kong based toy manufacturing company. By December of 2002, Drift had relocated to Hong Kong, leaving the spraypaint in New York, and focused on his work in the toy industry. Drift has not indulged his passion for illegal graffiti in Hong Kong but continues to use spraypaint as his medium of choice when painting murals and canvases in his free time.

     

     

    Artist Statement

     

    "My life as an artist has been an ongoing struggle between my passion for non-commercial art and the need to compromise my passion in order to maintain the kind of lifestyle I think I want to have. This conflict dramatically effects the choices I make as an artist and person. This ongoing struggle is an undercurrent in all of my art and it is the primary theme of my artwork in the "BURN" exhibition."

    does anyone have any price lists/artists bios used at art exhibition openings? something i can use as a template? i gotta fucking write about myself in fucking 3rd person which i fucking hate doing and i need a price list of my work... i'd like to see how others do it. i've seen so many but i just don't remember exactly what they look like. how they are arranged.
