Sometimes violence IS the only answer. Happy Independence Day! 🎆 🇺🇸 🎇 #KeyWest #ConchLife #FolkArtist #BAILE

Did you see the “smiley face” this morning? This triple conjunction astronomical event was pretty awesome to witness as the moon was rising. 🌙 This type of event only occurs about once a decade. Article left in the comments for those who are interested. #KeyWest #ConchLife #FolkArtist #BAILE

It’s been 13 years since I made my 1st woodcarving.☝🏼🥳 “Goby on the Brain” was inspired by childhood memories of my mother’s saltwater aquarium, which I LOVED! Neon gobies were a favorite. Saw them in the wild for the 1st time snorkeling around White St. Pier. #KeyWest #ConchLife #FolkArtist #BAILE

Today marks 11 years since I completed “Las Peleas”. At the time, this piece was the most detailed one from my small catalog of artwork. Going to cockfights with my abuelo was wild. My 6 y/o eyes & ears got a real education about this underground fight club community. #KeyWest #FolkArtist #BAILE

New piece in the works. Care to guess what it’s going to be? 📦 A: PRESSURE #KeyWest #ConchLife #FolkArtist #BAILE

7 AM Mass at St. Mary’s Basilica. Simply stunning! “Thank you…” is how I pray, as I walk by. 🙏🏼 Thank you for my loved ones, my experiences & life lessons (good & bad), blessings, needs, & things already on the way. Whatever comes to mind - nothing filtered. #KeyWest #ConchLife #FolkArtist #BAILE

So, technically, this piece is a 3x collab now. Do you wanna guess who my two collaborators are? 🤔 “Las Peleas” was originally completed on 2/28/2014, but I brought her back in for an anniversary makeover. Check back in on her in 14 days. #KeyWest #ConchLife #FolkArtist #BAILE

That moon was something else this morning, so I had to take a pic! 🤩 Only the old heads like me remember riding the Key Western miniature train, but this pic was pre-dawn (at the corner of White St. & Atlantic Blvd.) facing the dog park at Clarence Higgs Memorial Park. #keywest #BAILE #folkartist
