Cami Cudder Project!
This is my video of the "Cami Cudder Project!" I hope you will enjoy this video. This project took me about two weeks due to classes and work, but I finally got it done and I'm happy with the result. This is a painting of Kid Cudi for someone who wanted it painted.
My paintings are now based on a everyone gets something basis. Every painting I do that gets sold.. 30 to 50 percent of the money goes to charity. The charity for this specific painting is going to red cross for help with relief in Japan. Thank you for looking! and check out my video!

Grenade Art Piece!!
So this little piece of art was inspired from the song "Grenade" by Bruno Mars. I've been listening to that song a lot lately, so I thought I'd do my own interpretation of it. This was also inspired by the fact a friend of mine on facebook told me to do "war" or something related to it when I posted "Give me an idea for a drawing." Well this is what it has turned into and it's very simple, but I like it. Grenade stencil with lots of colors inspired by FAKE! I hope you enjoy my new art piece and feel free to make comments and btw.. this is truly what my blog is all about.. For the love of art..

Ways To Know You're a Sneakerhead!!! via kicksonfire
So how do you know you're a true sneakerhead? It's when you can at least relate to one of the following characteristics for a sneakerhead, so read on!
1. You only learned roman numerals because of the Air Jordan numbered series!
- The Roman Numeral system, as the name indicates, was used back during the age of ancient Rome. But if you ask a kid rocking a pair of Jordans where the system came from, they’ll probably tell you MJ invented it.
2. You lick the sole of the shoe when you first take it out of the box.
- Besides smelling their new kicks, sneakerheads like to lick the brand new sole of a pair of recently purchased kicks. Now, while we are sure that Fat Joe didn’t start the trend, he definitely made it more popular when he did it while showing off his shoe collection on MTV Cribs.
3. When you buy new a new pair of shoes, you take pictures of them for your facebook profile picture.
- Let’s face it, most of us have a fixation for facebook. It consumes us, and many people put their entire life on their facebook! A real sneakerhead is so excited about the new addition to their collection that they have to show it off, and what better way to do that then to take a new profile picture for facebook?
4. When somebody insults your shoes, you love you kicks so much that you stick up for them like they are your children.
- Sneakerheads seem to become fearless if ever someone tries to make a negative insinuation or remark about their kicks. Have you ever dared to tell a hardcore sneaker fan that his kicks are fake? Do so, and we doubt that you’ll make it out alive!
5. You don't wear sneaks with clear soles in the rain.
- In case you didn’t know, but if you’re a real sneaker fanatic, then you probably did; when you let clear soles get wet, you speed up the process of them turning yellow. Many people complain that this is going to happen eventually, even if you never take the shoes out of the box, simply because of the moisture in the air.There have been many so-called “remedies” for this. Some people seal up their boxes, while others seal the shoes in zip-lock bags or put a bunch of silica packs inside the box. Others have tried using the infamous “Sea Glow” cleaner to try and rejuvenate their clear soles, but be careful as it might eat away at the glue that holds the shoe together. Whatever choice sneakerheads make, we know that when it comes to their clear soles, they’re about as scared of water as cats are.
6. You skipped school when you were younger because waiting on a line for new Jordans was more important.
- We’ve all done it, so don’t try to play the innocent role! Nowadays, Air Jordans typically come out on weekends, but has anyone ever thought about why that is? Back in the days, the release dates weren’t as uniform, and you would have to go pick up your pair of Js during the week. Jordan Brand eventually moved the anticipated release dates to Saturdays, and it is rumored that the reason being because too many kids were skipping school.
7. You limp when you walk to prevent creasing
- Nowadays shoe wear has become so technologically advanced (do you sense our sarcasm?), but before the invention of the ForceFields toe-box de-creasers, sneakerheads had other ways of preventing their shoes from creasing.While some wore double socks or stuffed their shoes with plastic bags, many of us simply walked funny. It might seem dumb, and we probably looked dumb doing it, but walking with a limp was our way of keeping our kicks fresh. You can even think of it as re-training ourselves to walk.
8. When an exclusive shoe is limited, your shoe size goes from being one size, to being a range of sizes.
- Okay, don’t tell us none of you have ever waited in line for some kicks, and then when you finally got the chance to ask for that size 11.5, which is the size you’ve been wearing since your were 15, you find out that they only have 11 or 12. Then, all of a sudden, you can wear a size 11, 11.5, or 12! Enough said…
9. You search the internet on how to take care of your kicks or buy some kicks you really want.
- If you’re a real sneaker fan, you’ve visited ISS or Niketalk at some point, whether it was to find out information on an upcoming shoe, figure out how to clean a specific shoe, or buy some kicks that you really wanted.
10. You hate someone who you don't even know, just because they're rocking some kicks that you really want.
- Sneakerheads don’t give others reasons to hate them. Sometimes haters create their own little drama of pure jealousy. Then again, sometimes the shoe is on the other foot, and as the sneakerhead, you hate on someone because you envy their kicks.Have you ever felt like your kicks were such hot items and you could feel people staring at them with so hard that you thought they were going to burn a hole through them? Or have you ever looked fixedly at a passerby’s shoes and gotten jealous? Come on guys, you know what they say, the first step is admitting that you have a problem.

M-Rock - The Best of Kanye West! (Mixtape)
This is M-Rock's - Best of Kanye West mixtape!! I'm a pretty big Kanye fan and this mixtape has to be dope! HipHopDX gives it a 5/5! Download link at the bottom of this post!
This man has had a career like no other. He has given classic beats and hooks to everyone from Janet Jackson to Rick Ross, he invented the soul sound, and what I like most about him is he has great vision. I can spend hours trying to explain how innovative this guy is, but I’d rather we get back to the matter at hand. His music has everything it needs to chart, get critical acclaim but you can tell he’s driving hardest at creating that classic sample-heavy hip-hop, soul and new school sound. I mean, how many guys do 60 mixes of a song before it comes out?
ABOUT THIS TAPE. I lack fanciness in writing and in the artwork (which I did myself), but I promise you my skills as a DJ are sharp as a ginsu on this tape. It took me 3 weeks, probably between 100 – 200 hours to get it right (I’m picky). I really went deep in to give music fans something articulate: scratches, digital juggles, lots of blends, studio edits and tricks. If you play it on an iPod or in iTunes, the tracks are all chapters and there’s a pic for every chapter representing the song. I’d like people to rate this among the best tapes ever, but you guys be the judge, diss it, love it, hate it, whatever, let me know what you think.

These sneaks are loved and hated, you just have to be the right person that can pull it off! lol they'd probably be hard to match, but of course I'm me.. and I can make it work!

Lefty aka the L.E.F.T. - Kill The Messenger (Mixtape)
I got a mixtape to share, it's called "Lefty aka the L.E.F.T" by Kill The Messenger and it's an interesting mixtape. While hiphopdx gave this mixtape a sure 5.. I wouldn't give it a 5/5 at all, probably more like a 3/5.. this mixtape is different, but it's not all that... but themost interesting thing about this mixtape is the artwork involved. The front cover is interesting, but once you get the download you realize that there's individual songs with different covers. It's some really dope street art and that's what makes me actually want to post this mixtape to my blog. So.. for the mixtape itself.. 3/5 and the artwork 5/5. (Download Link At the bottom)
Update!!!! All artwork was created by Basic Lee: http://basiclee.weebly.com/
Notes: All tracks have individual artwork done by Basic Lee!
New Ideas.
So I just had some amazing ideas for a website, but the only thing is.. I might not be able to continue my use of blogger. Blogger has some limits for my ideas and I can't contain myself in that box, so I might be converting myself to apple's mobileme. The new website will have some exciting stuff, and blog post will actually be categorized with all kind of stuff. It's going to have posts about my artwork along with other interesting blog posts in different categories.. some people might be interested in other categories than most.. it's going to be interesting.
HellaFlush!!
So.. I'm definitely going to HellaFlush one day.. and if you don't know what being "HellaFlush" is.. then you're out of luck cause I'm not going to tell you.. naww.. j/k.. Being "HellaFlush" is when your wheels are the perfect offset and width/size that your fenders sit perfectly flush with the wheels. You slam it as low as you can! So check out this HellaFlush video..

Mac Miller!
When I first heard about this guy I was on YouTube and watched a music video of his called "Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza".. thinking that he wasn't all that, but guess as time passed by.. Mac Miller grew on to me. He's an 18 year old Jewish rapper and as much as the sounds weird.. it happens to make a good combination. He goes by Mac Miller, but his real name is Malcolm McCormick.. though he has been underground for a while creating mixtapes and shit.. he has recently signed with Rostrum Records and released his official mixtape with them called "K.I.D.S. (Kickin Incredibly Dope Shit).. Though many of yall might not know his name (yet). I'm sure you know some of his affiliates such as Wiz Khalifa..
Here's a link to his offical mixtape on mediafire: K.I.D.S. Download!
My personal favorites are Nikes On My Feet and Good Evening.. this mixtape is good. Mac Miller still has time to grow so don't critic the mixtape like it has to be the f**king best.. it has it's up and downs, but all in all I like it.
Here's a link to his offical mixtape on mediafire: K.I.D.S. Download!

Room Wall
I decided to add some changes to my room's wall.. it's kinda cluttered with a bit of random stuff, but I like the wall cause it describes me as a person and so much more! Other than that I got some kicks on boxes up there, painting a friend got me, Kat Von D in on the other wall, random Japanese style painting near the bottom, twizzy-twizz art piece I did at a hotel, and it's hard to see.. but some phone charms hanging where the FLCL picture is lol..
That's really it for now.. tell me what yall think and don't forget to follow me (Google follow button on the right, click it!!) if you got a twitter account!! Peace..

JUSTIN F*CKING BIEBER
Since a lot of people wanna argue about Justin Bieber on my facebook and shit.. I'm just going to have to share this vid. Some of you might already know how I feel about Justin Bieber.. but the guy is talented and I'm going to have to give him that.. I'm just mad at him cause he getting all the hoes j/k.. but seriously!! Anyway.. this is a video that shows exactly how I feel about Bieber and I thought that Bieber haters or lovers should watch! so Do it!!
Preview!
So.. since my blog doesn't really have anything in it really. I thought I'd give visitors something to see for now, there's no new stuff yet.. but the old stuff should satisfy those needs for amazing visuals for now.
This is a nine pieces canvas nailed/taped together to form one big canvas. It's of nine famous rappers: Common, Tupac, Kid Cudi, NAS, Jay-Z, Lupe Fiasco, Andre 3000, Kanye West, and Eminem.. (Left to right starting from top left corner) The piece is done in Acrylic paint.
This piece is done on some drawing paper using pencil, pen, and markers to create it. It's colorful and inspired from an idea by FAKE Stencils. As of now this is my favorite art piece done on paper and it's even the background on my phone!
Well.. there you go, a little preview of something amazing and more posts are most definitely coming.

TWIZZY ART!!
So what is Twizzy Art?!! well.. Twizzy or Twizz.. whatever you may want to call it.. is my first and last name combined (Thomas Wisnewski) and I'm a major artist. I decided to created this blog as a way to start of a foundation for something that I hope will turn big later on.. Here you will find a lot of random ish.. such as new art creations, old ones, just my life in general.. It kinda gives you an peak at what I do in my life.. but for a quick introduction.. I live in Augusta, GA and attend Augusta State University majoring in business and minoring in art. As of right now I am 18 years old and am a masters of the arts.. I tell myself I'm the best because I truly believe I am even if someone else is better than me, that's just how it goes in my book. Just thought I'd start something in hopes to make my dreams come true, that's what we're all here in this world anyway.. for our own damn purpose =)!
