Artist Statement
Love Letter To Brooklyn is literally showing love to downtown Brooklyn through the memeories and feelings of one of its prominent sons, Dave villorente. Dave grew up on De Kalb avenue, Saw santa at Macys as a kid, Worked at macys as a teen, just bought socks at macy’s last week. In addition to Dave’s story, I painted some romantic pick up lines in the hopes that they are used to increase the population of brooklyn, and I have depicted a local couple, living room johnson and his wifey Katiya and their newborn baby. Finally there is a tribute to dollar vans and 99 cent stores that are the lowest common denominations on the block the macys garage occupies
