    EP 209 | DONKEEBOY ALEX ROMAN JR.: The Start, Voice, Transition, That Check, Basel Bananas and Other shit.

    I was a little skeptical about Alex and his voice, I was only familiar with his mural's. Did some research and dug what he was making, and after only moments of rapping with him did I see that he really has so much to say about his work and life and with his work and life. We also talked about influences, expensive bananas (not a reference to genitalia), switching the game up and much more. Y'all check out https://www.breakfreehouston.com/ and find out how you can help contribute to furthering their success. Enjoy listening to the episode as usual and let us know what you think.

    208 | KEVIN WATSON: Winston Contemporary Arts, Gallery Ownership and the Journey To It

    208 | KEVIN WATSON: Winston Contemporary Arts, Gallery Ownership and the Journey To It

    We had the pleasure of speaking with one of the newest gallery owners in the city, Kevin Watson of Winston Contemporary Arts. He comes from a world much different from the world of art, but that allows him to have some different approaches that may make him that much more of a success in this ever changing art market. We had a wonderful time having the conversation and hope that you all have a great time listening, even the part where Raquel tells a long story, cut for time, about why she will no longer buy artwork from some dude in Atlanta named PAPER FRANK. Ya'll shouldn't either. Enjoy and as always...
