Closer to My Dreams...

So I have been procrastinating on all my art projects. I think I secretly like the pressure. I think I purposely sit in my room and watch stupid stuff on tv- while the back room of my house is full of old furniture just waiting to be given a rebirth. I better get on it. -Someone make me get on it!

I am also lagging on what will be called Conscious Girls Clothing. CGC (because I don't want to keep typing it out) will be starting fairly soon with Valerie and I the co-creators under the Moe Y Yo Collective (sounds way more important than it is). The purpose of this line will be to cater to young Latina women who do not have t-shirts that pertain to them. I am constantly disappointed with the selection that women have in hop hop gear- especially Latina women. I don't know about you, but I am tired of seeing J.Lo crap and Baby Phat. Their stuff just seems like filler. I want people to not only like the t-shirts and wear them but I want them to actually think about the designs. I want it to come with random thoughts.

Last night as I was pondering this concept- I had a random thought of linking Carmen Miranda and hip hop- sort of a latin icon (satire) with the four elements of hip hop. We'll see how that goes. I will be contemplating later on tonight because I need to come up with some more random thoughts that will grace the front or the back of the Conscious Girls line of t-shirts. But for you guys- don't worry I will have a couple of designs that are more unisex. That way we can infiltrate the t-shirt world and try to take over like Pinky and the Brain (I miss them).
